PeetaBoo is not a smarter baby monitor. It's a small camera and a daily journal that work together: the camera notices, PeetaBoo finds your child, writes down what happened, and keeps what's worth keeping.
"Is my child in this video?" asked ten thousand times, with a low tolerance for being wrong.
"What is my child doing in this video?" answered as an observation, never a verdict.
A library, not a hard drive.
Every clip is kept, kept for a while, or let go, based on two things: whether PeetaBoo found your child in it, and whether you bookmarked it. These are the rules we run.
| Clip | Kept for | What that means |
|---|---|---|
| Bookmarked by you | Forever | Your first bookmark marks it permanent. Removing the bookmark later never un-marks it. |
| Your child, clearly | Forever | Always in your library and always playable. |
| Possibly your child | 6 months | Shown to you to confirm. Confirm it or bookmark it and it stays. |
| Not your child | 30 days | Deleted automatically. |
| Never processed | A few days | If something interrupts processing, the clip is cleaned up rather than left lying around. |
We started with a store-bought security camera. It taught us the idea works, and it taught us why it couldn't be the product: those cameras keep footage locked inside their own apps and won't hand clips to anything else. So we built our own.
A small wall or shelf camera with a wide view of one room, built for the places your child actually plays. No subscription to another company's app, no footage held hostage.
This started as software for one family's footage. The rules we set for ourselves are the rules the product ships with. Your clips are handled inside PeetaBoo's secure, encrypted product, in a private space that belongs to your household.
We're in private beta with a handful of families. If you have a kid under three and a room they play in, we'd like to hear from you.
