Standard vs Professional: sizing AI streams

An AI stream is a camera feed that is actively running an analytics model. Your site can have more cameras than AI streams.

When Standard is enough

Choose AI Edge Analytic Box Standard (Rockchip RK3568, about 1 TOPS NPU, $299) when you need up to 4 concurrent AI streams — for example a construction gate plus a crane zone, or a single mall entrance.

When Professional fits better

Choose Professional (RK3588, 6 TOPS NPU, $799) for up to 16 AI streams, multi-model mixes (safety + counting + LPR), or malls and traffic corridors with many doorways or lanes.

Enterprise

Enterprise is an on-premise deployment on customer-specified hardware — not a catalog SKU. Capacity is sized with sales.
