Build, integrate & deploy with Sierrawing.
The technical guidance developers, IT teams, and integrators need to connect visual data, configure AI detection, and build intelligent workflows.
Three steps to production
Start building with Sierrawing in a few simple steps.
Connect Your Visual Data
Connect compatible cameras, video streams, or supported visual data sources to Sierrawing.
- Supported camera sources
- Video stream configuration
- Camera authentication
- Network requirements
- Camera health monitoring
- Multi-camera environments
Configure AI Detection
Define what Sierrawing should detect and where it should monitor.
- Detection types
- Monitoring zones
- Restricted areas
- Thresholds
- Time-based rules
- Alert severity
- Event conditions
Monitor AI Events
Once your cameras and AI rules are configured, Sierrawing analyzes visual data and generates events when configured conditions are detected.
- View live events
- Review event details
- Filter events
- Search event history
- Configure event severity
- Manage event status
Everything You Need, Organized
Browse documentation organized around the platform, detection, integrations, and operations.
Platform Overview
Understand the Sierrawing platform and its core architecture.
Camera & Video Setup
Learn how to connect and manage your visual data sources.
AI Detection
Configure Sierrawing's AI-powered visual intelligence capabilities.
Detection availability depends on the models and capabilities enabled for your deployment.
Detection Rules
Create rules that determine when Sierrawing should generate an event or alert.
Rules can be customized according to your operational requirements.
Events & Alerts
AI detections become useful when teams can act on them: Detection → Event → Alert → Review → Action.

Turn AI events into operational insights.
Security & Privacy
Sierrawing is designed with security and responsible visual-data management in mind.
Organizations remain responsible for configuring and operating the platform in accordance with applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies.
Create Rules That Determine When to Alert
Detection Rules define when Sierrawing should generate an event or alert — combining a camera, a monitoring zone, a condition, a schedule, and a severity level into a single, reusable rule.
Rules can be customized according to your operational requirements.
- Rule Name

- Camera
- CAM-18
- Zone
- Staff Only
- Condition
- Person detected inside configured zone
- Schedule
- 8:00 PM – 6:00 AM
- Severity
- High
