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! If you’re interested in our efforts in general outside of DIY, our main website with our pre-built offering is here: click to see our website
GitHub content, profit website, automatic over air updates, content like “Earn $5 in Secluso credit for every qualifying referred pre-order.”
Just sounds like not actually secure marketing itself as super secure.
I could dig more, but i don’t care much.
Edit: also how super fast they commented on your comment with a copy paste answer. Or just a bot
I think they’re just a privacy-focused startup that just wants to make a living off their work

A computer that has its own Linux distro that does work but it clearly a demo.
Been taking $99 preorders for… two years?
Secluso will be taking “preorders” this month. Wanna bet how many years before it launches its hardware?
You don’t have to pre-order, just wait until it’s released and buy it then. And in this case you can get a raspi and test the product for yourself, so why spread FUD?
You’re not listening
this reply adds nothing. Please explain your position
No. I suggest you buy and use their product. Especially, you should put a deposit on it. Do it. Go. Now. Shhhhhh.
Ok so you’re a troll then. Fearmongering doesn’t help the community. If you’re against something give evidence. There’s a balance between fearmongering and blind hype.
You know this community is about privacy and distrusting. Me refusing to talk to you because I know you’re not speaking in good faith doesn’t make me any kind of troll. As I said in my top comment:
Sus.
And it is. If you need more than I’ve said in all my other comments, you go do your own research and come to your own conclusions about it.
Hi kibblebits,
I pulled the links from the cloud camera controversies page from our website. We already had them compiled there. I didn’t pre-write any answers. And you can see from our GitHub history that we’ve been around for over a year and a half, and that we’re real people. Not bots.
Our automatic updates rely on immutable releases, ensuring that we can’t pull them back to try to hide something malicious. Additionally, we have reproducible builds, proving that the binaries / deploy tool / OS were derived from our codebase.
Everything is self-host able, you do not need to pay us to get anything working. Our plug and play camera is completely optional, we’re using it to help support our open source efforts and provide something that benefits the community.
Your audience is people who don’t want a corporation involved in their cameras yet you’re trying to start a corporation who is involved in their cameras. You should prepare yourself for significant pushback.
