One can use Frigate + Home Assistant + some secure remote access solution (e.g., VPN) to get a usage model similar to Secluso. Secluso however provides the following advantages:

1) You'll get advanced end-to-end encryption (MLS).

2) You'll get a trusted firmware (fully open source and verifiable software running on a Raspberry Pi). An important advantage of having trusted firmware is that you won't have to worry about putting a firewall in front of a camera that comes with closed source firmware and hence can't be trusted.

3) Secluso is easier to set up. All you need is to run our released binaries in a Raspberry Pi, a server, and then use our app. We are also open to providing server support for for a limited number of interested users. This will further simplify the setup. Please contact us if you're interested.

4) With Secluso, you won't need a hub or an NVR. All you need is a Raspberry Pi (and its camera).
