Plans / Partner API

Routines and briefs for your customers’ cameras.

For camera brands, dealers and installers, internet providers and property software. Send events and frames; get back plain observations, routine results with a coverage line, and morning briefs your customers can read.

Prices

Public, per event, no minimums. You pay for events Tendline analyses, not for every motion your cameras log.

First 2,000 analysed events each monthFree
Each analysed event after that$0.004
White-label app, per camera$0.50 a month

An analysed event is one frame or short clip that Tendline reads: a motion event a routine needs, a scheduled look-check, or an upload. Events your routines don’t need are logged, not analysed, and not charged.

For scale: a camera with 10 analysed events a day is about 300 a month, or $1.20 once you’re past the free 2,000.

What the API returns

Three things, all as structured data with plain-English text alongside. The API is in early access; the API reference has every endpoint, and fields may still change.

Observations

One per analysed frame: people, vehicles and packages counted; door and gate states; answers to yes-or-no questions; a short description using roles and objects; light level; whether the frame was usable; and a confidence level.

Routine results

For each routine run: met, missed, needs a look, or couldn’t confirm, with the coverage line that explains it, the frames it relied on, and who should hear about it.

Morning briefs

One per account per day, across every place: needs a look, didn’t happen, happened, couldn’t see. Built from stored results, so it’s the same every time you ask for it.

The same rules apply

Partner traffic runs through the same product rules as Tendline itself. They aren’t options.

  • No identity. No faces, names, face matching, watchlists or outside databases.
  • No audio. Frames and event times only.
  • No verdicts. No “intruder”, “suspicious” or “weapon”; a wording check removes them before anything is returned.
  • Honest uncertainty. Unusable frames return “can’t tell”, and missed results require good coverage.
  • Awareness, not protection. Results are heads-ups for people, not alarm signals or dispatch triggers.
  • Retention. Frames are kept 7 or 30 days, then deleted. Details.

Who we’d like to hear from

  • Camera brands that want expectations, look-checks and a morning brief in their own app.
  • Dealers and installers who look after cameras for many homes or small businesses.
  • Internet providers bundling cameras with service.
  • Property and rental software that already knows the schedule: bookings, openings, visits.
