Tell your cameras what should happen.

Say it in one sentence. Peekaboo checks your home cameras at the right moment and tells you when it wasn’t seen.

For a parent’s home, your own home, or a rental you host.

Peekaboo isn’t open yet, and nothing can be bought.

You say

“Tell me if Mom’s front door hasn’t opened by 11.”

Nothing connects today. A Ring connection is in development, and a way to send pictures from other cameras isn’t open yet. Which cameras will work.

Say it in a sentence.

Pick one. Peekaboo reads it back before anything runs, so you can check it understood.

Peekaboo reads it back

Every day between 5 AM and 11 AM, Peekaboo counts the door as opened when the front door camera sees the door open or someone step out or go in (not a delivery, someone walking past or a doorbell press). If that isn’t seen by 11 AM, Peekaboo will tell you, with how many pictures it read and the last one.

Peekaboo reads it back

On turnover days, an hour before check-in (3 PM with a 4 PM check-in), Peekaboo will look at the driveway camera for bins in, and at the side gate camera for gate closed. If anything doesn’t look right, it will tell you and look again every 15 minutes until check-in.

What it checks
Every morning by 11 AM, it looks for a sign that your day has started: a door used, or the paper or a package picked up from the step.
Who hears
Each morning, Sam, Priya and Leo get one short line in words, with no pictures. Sam can see the pictures Peekaboo has read, in the app.
Pause or stop
You can ask Sam to pause or stop Peekaboo at any time.
The page a parent reads first. An invented home, in the page’s own words, shortened.

A parent’s morning, with their OK.

Most mornings, one short line for you and your siblings, from a camera at their front door.

  1. Nothing is read until they say yes.

    Your parent reads a plain page first: which camera, what is checked, who hears. They say yes with you. If the page changes, nothing is read until they say yes again.

  2. It says “someone”, never a name.

    Peekaboo can’t tell your parent from a visitor, and it doesn’t try. The line says the front door was used.

  3. It is not a medical alert.

    It doesn’t detect falls, and it can be late or wrong. A door that didn’t open is a reason to call, not a diagnosis.

It says when it can’t tell.

Peekaboo doesn’t fill a gap with a guess. The quoted lines are examples from invented days.

  • A doorbell camera’s view from a porch: a lawn, a quiet street with parked cars, and houses across the road. Nobody is in view.

    Front Door

    Not seen

    Example photo

    It wasn’t in any picture read. You get the count and the last picture.

    “The dog walker not seen by 2 PM. 6 pictures read, last at 1:45 PM.”

  • The same front door and its porch lamps, seen grey and dim, as on a camera that has gone offline.

    Mom’s Front DoorOffline since

    Couldn’t confirm

    Example photo

    The cameras couldn’t see enough to say. You get the reason. A camera that only sends a picture when it notices movement sends none on a quiet morning, so that morning’s line says it couldn’t confirm.

    “Mom’s house by 11:00 AM: couldn’t confirm door use. Mom’s Front Door camera offline since 10:12 AM.”

  • A quiet street in daylight with wheeled bins standing at the curb.

    Cabin Drive

    Needs a look

    Example photo

    Something is in the wrong state, or has been there too long.

    “1 thing needs a look: bins still at the curb (Cabin Drive, 3:00 PM).”

We tested how Peekaboo reads bins, gates, garage doors and driveways, and it isn’t where we want it yet, so check the pictures. How it decides.

Who it’s for.

  • A house at night with its porch light on, a red front door and lamps lit in the windows.

    A parent’s home

    One quiet line each morning about a parent’s front door, with their OK.

    “Tell me if Mom’s front door hasn’t opened by 11.”

    For a parent’s home

    Example photo

  • Two closed garage doors in a brick wall in low evening light.

    Your own home

    The garage at night, a package left out, the bins on collection day.

    “Tell me if a package sits outside more than 2 hours.”

    For your home

    Example photo

  • A wooden cabin at night with one lit window and a lamp by the door.

    A rental you host

    Bins, the gate, and someone seen after checkout, before the next guests.

    “Cleaner on site by 1 PM on turnover days.”

    For hosts

    Example photo

What it never does.

  • No face recognition.
  • No audio.
  • No plates.
  • Not an alarm.

It never works out who anyone is, and it never uses a name. It never listens. License plates are never read. It isn’t an emergency service, and it doesn’t send help. In an emergency, call 911.
