Universal .DAV Viewer & Security Footage Manager

The user's struggle to view .dav files (a proprietary format often used by DVRs and CCTV systems) without conversion on multiple OS (Mac/Windows) indicates a niche pain point for individuals or small businesses managing security footage. While a desktop app is the immediate need, a SaaS opportunity arises by extending this into a cloud-based security footage management platform. Such a platform could offer secure storage, advanced viewing features (multi-camera sync, timeline scrubbing, event tagging), and potentially AI-driven analytics (e.g., motion detection alerts, object recognition, anomaly detection) for security professionals or property managers, turning raw footage into actionable insights. Revenue could be based on storage, number of cameras connected, or advanced feature subscriptions.
