Camera compatibility checker
Most modern IP cameras work with Gobi. Run through the checklist below to confirm yours does, before you book a demo.
Quick check
- Camera is a network IP camera (not analog / coax)
- Camera exposes an RTSP URL on the local network
- You can log into the camera's admin UI
- The camera is reachable from a small Linux box on the same network
- Stream is H.264 or H.265
If you can tick all five, your camera will almost certainly work with Gobi.
Common compatible brands
- Hikvision, Dahua, Uniview, Axis, Bosch, Hanwha, Reolink (most current models)
- Most ONVIF-compliant cameras on Profile S or T
- Solar trailer cameras that expose RTSP locally
- NVRs that re-stream RTSP
Known not-compatible
- Verkada-branded cameras (no RTSP exposure)
- Ring / Blink / Nest consumer cameras (no RTSP)
- Cellular-only cloud cameras with no local stream

Frequently asked questions
Does Gobi work with my existing cameras?
Yes. If your cameras stream RTSP (most IP cameras and NVRs do), Gobi can usually pull them in without replacing hardware.
Is Gobi priced per camera?
No. Gobi uses flat per-node pricing. You can grow your camera footprint without growing the bill.
How fast do AI events appear?
AI motion events typically appear in the searchable log within 5–12 seconds of being captured.
Do I need port forwarding or special IT setup?
No. The Gobi node creates an outbound connection to the cloud. No inbound ports, no VPN, no static IPs required.
How long does setup take?
A typical single-site deployment is under one hour once the node has internet and the cameras are reachable on the local network.
