About
What Frigate does
Frigate is a self-hosted NVR built around real-time AI object detection. It uses your CPU or GPU to detect people, vehicles, and animals in camera streams, storing recordings and sending alerts only when relevant events occur — keeping storage lean and notifications meaningful.
Install Flow
How to self-host Frigate
Frigate can be deployed with standard Docker Compose using the Yantr app catalog. This page collects the basic information searchers usually need first: what Frigate does, which Docker image Yantr uses, default ports, deployment notes, and where to find the original compose template.
After deployment, Yantr lets you publish additional ports from the stack page using Docker-style syntax. Use 8080:8080 for a fixed host port or just 8080 to let Docker assign a random port.
Use Cases
What people run it for
- Monitor IP cameras with AI-based person and vehicle detection.
- Record only relevant events to save disk space.
- Integrate camera events with Home Assistant for smart automations.
