Verkada is an American physical security company founded in 2016 that sells cloud-managed cameras, access control, alarms, sensors and intercoms administered from a single browser-based console. Its argument against the incumbents is that traditional security systems require on-site recorders and separate software for each device type, whereas its hardware streams to a managed cloud service with automatic updates and video search built in. Headquartered in San Mateo and privately held, it sells to schools, healthcare providers, retailers, manufacturers and local government, and has grown quickly in a category that had seen little product change for years.
