Once you see how easy it is, you'll find monitoring opportunities everywhere - from safety compliance to workflow optimization.
Industrial Reliability
Rugged cameras designed for harsh industrial environments with dependable performance and flexible mounting options.
How It Works
Automation Has Never Been This Simple
No Programming,
No Complex Setup
Mount Your Camera
Install the camera where you want to monitor - anywhere with WiFi connectivity.
Tell It What To Do
Use natural language to describe what you want monitored: "Watch for people without hard hats."
Get Instant Alerts
Receive notifications the moment something important happens, preventing issues before they escalate.
Real Examples of What You Can Automate
Machine Status Monitoring
"Alert me when this CNC machine indicator light turns red" - Catch equipment issues before costly downtime occurs.
Safety Compliance
"Notify me when someone enters this area without a hard hat" - Ensure safety protocols are followed automatically.
Quality Control
"Watch for defects on this assembly line" - Spot quality issues immediately and prevent bad products from shipping.
Process Optimization
"Count how many pallets pass through here daily" - Gather data to optimize workflows and identify bottlenecks.
Applications
Common Use Cases
Discover what others are automating with Synoptic cameras

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about setting up and using Synoptic's ultra-simple automation platform.
How quickly can I really set up a monitoring task?
Seriously, under 5 minutes. Mount the camera, connect to WiFi, and tell it what to watch using natural language. The AI starts monitoring immediately.
What if I'm not technical - can I still use this?
That's exactly who we built this for! If you can describe what you want monitored in plain English, you can set up Synoptic cameras. No programming or technical knowledge required.
Does the camera need internet connectivity?
Yes, Synoptic cameras require internet connection for cloud-based AI processing. This ensures you get the most advanced computer vision capabilities and continuous improvements.
What kinds of things can I monitor that I might not have thought of?
Customers are amazed at what they end up monitoring: coffee machine usage patterns, parking lot capacity, how often employees wash hands, unusual noise patterns, even monitoring if plants need watering!
How accurate is the monitoring?
Our cloud-based AI achieves high accuracy for most visual monitoring tasks, and continuously improves through machine learning. You can fine-tune detection sensitivity to match your needs.
Can I try it risk-free?
We offer AI inference credits so you only pay for what you use. Start small with a single camera and expand as you discover more automation opportunities.
