Open source Intercom & CCTV platform with Mobile apps, Face and LP Recognition, Media Server (GPLv3)

#sip #intercom #cctv

My team are building an open-source IP/SIP intercom + video surveillance platform (GPLv3).

Core ideas

No vendor lock-in: designed to work with SIP intercoms and CCTV that expose an open API.

Modular setup: you can start small (a private house) and scale up to apartment buildings / residential complexes / districts / even a city.

What you can build

IP/SIP intercom for entrances, gates, barriers
Video surveillance (live + archive) with modern server-side + admin panel (we also maintain a built-in free media server (based on ffmpeg) for mobile live + archive access: Simple-DVR)
Mobile apps for residents (iOS/Android)
Desktop web client for security/concierge teams
Ticketing & field service workflows (task tracking + planning + PWA for technicians)
Optional face recognition + license plate recognition (FALPRS)
Integrations with billing/CRM/payments and external systems

Localization

The project is currently localized for English, Russian, Kazakh, Uzbek, Bulgarian, Arabic, Armenian.
If you’d like to help, we’d love contributions for new languages (translations, terminology review, UI copy improvements, etc.).
