What Turing Video does

Turing Video, operating under the brand Turing AI, is a San Mateo-based private company founded in 2017 that develops an AI-powered video surveillance and cloud storage platform serving enterprise security customers. The company's core offering, AI Cloud, is a cloud-based video analytics and management platform complemented by proprietary hardware including the Edge Plus Series (edge computing cameras), LPR Camera (license plate recognition), IP Speaker, Site Shield, and Solar Shield for remote/off-grid deployments. The product portfolio extends into specialized AI agents (General Agent, Safe City Agent) and operational tools (Analytics Dashboard, Video Wall, LITE Kits), positioning Turing as a full-stack provider across hardware, software, and AI-driven intelligence.

The platform integrates with major third-party security and access control systems including Axis Communications, Brivo, Genea, Immix, PDK, and Triton, and exposes an Open API and webhook support for extensibility. Turing distributes through a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise field sales with a structured channel partner program, including a Partner Portal, Project Registration system, and Authorized Distributors network.

Turing's revenue model combines recurring cloud storage subscriptions with hardware sales and bundled LITE Kits. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the website features ROI, bandwidth, storage, and pricing calculator tools, suggesting quote-based or consultation-driven pricing for enterprise customers. The company has raised funding from Basis Set Ventures (2018 seed) and BRC Innovation (2021 round), with both round amounts undisclosed.
