Know exactly where your dog's been. Literally.
CrapCam is a smart garden camera and phone app for UK dog owners. It spots when your dog does its business, tells you which dog it was, and pins the spot on a map of your garden. No more torch-lit poo hunts.

You rarely see where they went
🌑 Winter evenings
It's dark at teatime, and the dog's out there doing who-knows-what, who-knows-where.
🌾 Long grass
Poos go missed, then get trodden in, found by the kids or met by the mower.
🐕🐕 More than one dog
Two dogs, one garden, and no idea whose is whose or how many there are.
🪣 Batch clearers
Clearing up once a day? You need to know where everything is, not go hunting.
How it works
Set it up once
Mount the camera on mains power, connect to Wi-Fi, then tap a few points on your garden in the app to map it. No GPS needed.
Enrol your dogs
A one-off enrolment teaches CrapCam each dog's coat. Look-alike dogs may need a coloured collar band.
Get an alert
When CrapCam spots a likely poo, your phone pings with a "probable poo". Confirm it with a tap.
Find it, bag it, done
Each one is pinned on your garden map, per dog and timestamped, to within roughly a metre on a flat lawn.
Planned features
🧠 Wee and poo detection
AI posture recognition spots when your dog squats, with phone alerts. It's not perfect (nothing is), but it learns from your taps and gets better over time.
📍 Poo map
Every event pinned on a map or photo of your garden, per dog and timestamped.
🐶 Tells your dogs apart
Recognises multiple dogs by their coat after a one-off enrolment.
🌙 Day and night
Night vision with built-in lights, so winter evenings are covered.
🔌 Built for outside
Weatherproof, on Wi-Fi and mains-powered, so there are no batteries to charge. Targeting 4K video (2K at minimum).
🔒 Garden security too
It's a garden security camera as well, keeping an eye on more than the dog. Designed with privacy in mind.
All features are planned and may change before launch.
Nothing else does all this
No existing product combines outdoor detection, telling dogs apart and mapping where the poo landed. The closest is Furbo, and that only does indoor poo alerts. Your garden deserves better.

How accurate is the map?
