Baby TalkieWhy we keep your baby's audio off the cloud
Many popular baby monitors — the standalone cameras and their apps — send your nursery's video to a company's servers so you can view it from anywhere. That convenience comes with a quiet trade‑off: the most intimate footage in your home now lives on someone else's computers.
The problem with "the cloud"
Once media leaves your home, you're trusting a company to store it safely, to not look at it, to not train on it, and to never be breached. Baby‑monitor camera makers have, more than once, been in the news for exactly those failures. The safest data is the data a company never receives in the first place.
Baby Talkie's approach: no server at all
Baby Talkie connects your two devices directly over your own Wi‑Fi. There is no Baby Talkie server in the middle, no account, and no upload. Your audio travels from the Baby Unit to your Parent Unit and nowhere else. We couldn't hand your baby's audio to anyone even if we were asked, because we never hold it.
What we give up, and why it's worth it
Because there's no server, this version works on your local network rather than over the internet from anywhere. We think that's the right default for a baby monitor: private by design, and free of the ongoing risk that a cloud brings. If a remote option ever arrives, it will be clearly labelled and opt‑in — and we'll update the privacy policy before turning it on.
