Kalay Cloud VMS
White-label cloud video management for flexible hardware, practical AI, and multi-site operations.
Kalay Cloud VMS helps camera brands, service providers, and distributed operators launch and manage cloud video services under their own brand. It combines flexible device connection paths, centralized cloud operations, and edge-plus-cloud intelligence to support real-world deployments across multiple customers, sites, and teams.
- Launch a branded cloud video service faster with white-label customization
- Reduce deployment friction with native and bridge-based hardware paths
- Support multi-site operations with centralized visibility, playback, and alerts
- Apply AI at the edge, in the cloud, or in a blended model based on deployment needs
- Monitor from anywhere via web browser and the Kalay Mobile companion app (iOS/Android)
Architecture Overview
Section titled “Architecture Overview”Kalay Cloud VMS is designed around three practical deployment principles:
- Path A --- Legacy Camera + AI Box: connect legacy cameras through an AI Box for edge intelligence and cloud connectivity.
- Path B --- IP Camera / NVR with TUTK Agent: native P2P connection for TUTK-enabled devices --- the simplest deployment path. (Recommended by TUTK)
- Path C --- ONVIF via Kalay Cloud Bridge: extend compatibility to third-party ONVIF cameras through bridge-based expansion.

Key Product Differentiators
Section titled “Key Product Differentiators”1. P2P Technology for Optimal Performance
Section titled “1. P2P Technology for Optimal Performance”Direct device connections reduce bandwidth costs and deliver faster streaming with TUTK’s proven P2P technology, with automatic relay fallback for guaranteed connectivity.
2. Fully White-Label Ready
Section titled “2. Fully White-Label Ready”Complete branding customization with logos, themes, custom URLs, and SSL support. Deliver cloud video services under your own brand across multiple partners and customers.
3. Hardware Independent
Section titled “3. Hardware Independent”Compatible with any TUTK-enabled camera or recorder from any manufacturer. Bridge-based expansion supports ONVIF devices with no vendor lock-in.
4. Practical Edge + Cloud AI
Section titled “4. Practical Edge + Cloud AI”Choose analytics at the device edge, in the cloud, or across both layers. Match AI deployment to bandwidth conditions, operational goals, and cost targets instead of locking into a single model.
