FAQ

Before the walkthrough.

Do I need new cameras?

No. livee is built to sit on the CCTV you already own. If a camera produces a live stream we can work with, it can carry alerts. The product is the event layer, not a hardware swap.

Can I attach several alerts to one camera?

Yes, and most sites do. A single dock camera commonly runs a stall alert inside the receiving window, a forklift keep-out on the pedestrian hatch, and an after-hours presence rule — three independent policies with three different sets of channels.

Can one alert notify several channels?

Yes. Email, SMS, an external API and an Ethernet signal to another machine can all fire from the same event, in parallel. Channels are attached per alert, so the 03:00 rule can be loud and the daytime rule can be quiet.

How does the “closer than X metres” alert actually work?

You mark a point or a region on the camera image and calibrate it once against a distance you know on the floor — a rack pitch, a bay width, a painted line. livee then tracks how close a chosen class of object gets, in real units, and fires on your threshold. It is image-based measurement, not lidar, so we calibrate and sanity-check it with you on the camera you intend to use.

What is “something should be moving”?

A stall or absence alert. You mark a region that is meant to be active during a window and set a grace period. If the expected motion stops for longer than that grace — a conveyor, a pack station, a dock inside its slot — the alert fires. It catches lost throughput that nobody reports.

Can livee call my API, or a machine on the network?

Both. Software gets a structured JSON webhook POSTed to an endpoint you own, with retries. Hardware gets a signal over Ethernet on the local network — a PLC, beacon, siren, gate or industrial PC — so the floor can react without waiting for a person to read a message.

Are mobile push notifications available?

Not yet. The push channel exists in the alert engine, but the Castomo mobile apps that receive it are still in development. Email, SMS, API and Ethernet are the channels you can use today, and we would rather say so than let you plan around a handset that is not there.

Cloud or on-site?

Either. Analysis can run in the cloud, or on hardware inside your own network when the cameras or the security policy require it. Which one suits your site depends on bandwidth, on where the recorder lives and on what your IT function allows — it is one of the first things we settle on the call.

What happens to the footage?

livee analyses the live stream for the situations you defined and keeps the seconds around an event as evidence, for as long as that source is set to keep them. You remain the data controller; livee processes on your instruction and does not use your footage to train anything. It is not a second archive of your whole site.

Is livee a Castomo product?

Yes. livee is part of the Castomo ecosystem and lives at livee.castomo.com — same company, same account, alongside the rest of the Castomo product family.

Honest limits

What livee is, and what it is not.

You bring the cameras

livee analyses the live stream. It is not a hardware sale and it does not replace your recorder.

You define the alerts

livee does not invent policy, and it will not tell you what your site should care about.

AI can miss

It can also misclassify. livee is an attention layer, not a replacement for supervision, guarding or safe systems of work.

Distance is measured from an image

Not from lidar. Accuracy depends on the view and the calibration, and we walk it with you before you rely on it.
