Hey everyone,

We’ve built an open-source, privacy-preserving alternative to Ring cameras using a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W (called Secluso). It uses end-to-end encryption to send videos from the camera to a mobile app, which is available both in Google Play Store and Apple App Store. We also support Obtainium for people that do not wish to use Google Play.

We’ve put in a lot of effort to make it easy to set up! You can set up our camera on your own Pi in less than 5 minutes with minimal technical expertise using our easy-to-use GUI deploy tool. Here are our setup guide and open source release.

The image shows a Pi in an official Raspberry Pi enclosure that you can use for your camera. We’ve also been working on a HAT for the Pi to add night vision, audio, temperature monitoring for safety, all in a compact form factor. You can see the HAT and an enclosure for the whole camera in the photo.

We’ve been working on this for almost 2 years now, and we look forward to we look forward to seeing what you all think!

    Hi kibblebits, please see below!

    • We do not have telemetry.
    • Our Android app is fully byte-for-byte reproducible. If you build it locally on your machine using our reproducible build script, it will match byte-for-byte the one in our GitHub releases. You can read more about reproducible builds here. In addition to our Android app, our deploy tools, OS image and binaries have these as well. This guarantees they were built from the source from our repositories.
    • Our relay is self hostable on any VPS you like.

    We’d be happy to add an option to disable auto update in our next release.

    If you have any other ideas for features we can add or changes we should make, please let us know.
