Keep your local setup.
Add cloud recording to a compatible live feed while your existing recorder keeps its own copy. CamBackup does not import or sync your NVR’s saved archive.
OFF-SITE RECORDING FOR YOUR EXISTING CAMERAS
Keep your cameras.
Keep a copy off‑site.
If your recorder is stolen or damaged, footage stored only there can go with it. CamBackup records a separate cloud copy from compatible camera or NVR live feeds, alongside your existing setup.

MADE FOR OPEN CAMERA STREAMS
RTSP(S)ONVIFMJPEGMP4 / HLSRTMP(S)SRT
A camera or NVR must expose a supported live feed. ONVIF helps find connection settings; it is not a compatibility guarantee. A gateway cannot unlock a proprietary app-only camera.
FROM LIVE PICTURE TO SAVED PROOF
Find it. Play it. Save a clip.
Check a live view, find a saved moment on the timeline, and download the footage you need. Start with one camera and verify a recording you can play.
Explore your everyday, from anywhere.

Switch between illustrative camera views. Connect your camera to see a real stream.
Keep footage beyond the premises.
Footage already saved in the cloud stays off-site if the camera or local recorder is taken. New cloud recording needs power, a working connection and recording access.
Control what you record.
Mask private areas before new cloud capture, choose whether to record audio, and protect your account with authenticator MFA.
Keep an off-site copy of the places that matter.PROVE YOUR SETUP BEFORE YOU COMMIT
One camera. One verified recording.
- 01
Choose the connection route.
Create an account. For a camera on your local network, set up CamBackup Gateway on a supported always-on computer or Raspberry Pi. An already reachable supported feed can connect directly.
- 02
Find and check the video.
Enter the camera address in the connection assistant or gateway and test the feed. The assistant checks supported profiles and confirms decoded video. Save the working connection, then open live view.
- 03
Verify the saved footage.
Choose recording access and privacy settings, start capture, then play a saved moment and download a clip. A live picture alone does not prove that footage is being stored.
THE TOOLS TO FIND AND KEEP A MOMENT
Recording first. Useful extras included.
Live views, saved recordings and exports in one workspace. Use your browser or install the web app on a supported device.
Record on your terms.
Continuous or finite capture, with your choice of quality, frame rate, audio and source-pixel privacy masks.
Know when recording is interrupted.
Check connection health and opt in to email after a sustained recording outage and when capture recovers. Alerts report interruptions; they do not replace missing footage.
Make moments useful.
Capture JPEG snapshots from the camera. Turn saved footage into short animated previews and downloadable MP4 clips. Download an important clip to keep it beyond the recording history window.
Your workflow, connected.
Power and Business include scoped API tokens and MCP. A checkout, sensor or service can name an event and request a finite recording.
Read the API referenceShare exactly what you choose.
Power and Business let an eligible camera publish an approved live view with a widget. Revoke sharing when you’re done; cameras start private.
An extra layer of assurance.
Google, email-link and password sign-in, with optional authenticator MFA and one-use recovery codes.
CHOOSE THE HISTORY YOU NEED
A recording plan for each camera.
Start with the entrance or other view you most need to preserve. Keep a shorter history elsewhere, or add cameras later.

Will CamBackup work with my camera or NVR?
It needs a compatible live feed, such as RTSP or supported HTTP video. Enter its address and test it with the connection assistant; ONVIF can help find a profile. A local camera may need CamBackup Gateway. App-only cameras are not automatically compatible. CamBackup records from live feeds; it does not sync an NVR’s existing archive.
Do I need another recorder or an app?
You can keep your existing recorder. A directly reachable supported feed can connect to the cloud; cameras on a private network can use the outbound gateway on a supported always-on device. View footage in your browser or install the web app on a supported device. See the gateway guide for downloads and setup requirements.
What happens during an internet or power outage?
Already saved cloud footage remains off-site. Video that never reached the service cannot be recovered by the cloud; the timeline shows gaps. The gateway can record locally when explicitly enabled and while its device and camera remain powered. Local recordings are separate and do not backfill the cloud timeline. Optional emails report a sustained recording outage and recovery.
Can I connect a checkout, sensor or another service?
Power and Business include developer API, MCP and automation access. Your integration can label an event and request a timed recording. Public widgets require an eligible plan on the shared camera. See the developer guides for supported clients and access requirements.
How do I limit what gets recorded?
Use source-pixel privacy masks before new cloud capture and disable audio when it is unnecessary. Masks do not change old footage or the gateway’s separate local recordings. Optional face analysis has additional privacy obligations; detection is not automatic person identification. Read the privacy guide before enabling it, especially in a workplace or public-facing space.
When do I choose and pay for a recording plan?
Create a free account and test a compatible camera first. Check the recording access shown in your dashboard and choose a plan for each camera you want recorded. Subscription details are confirmed before payment; contact us if you need help. Saving a card does not itself start a subscription. Cancellation stops new paid recording; existing footage remains available within retention and storage limits.
START WITH THE CAMERA THAT MATTERS MOST
Keep more than a live view.
Check compatibility, connect one camera and verify a saved recording. Keep your local recorder working alongside it.
