Ring’s new AI-powered feature brings smarter security alerts.

Overview

  • The beta feature generates text descriptions of the primary subject and its action in motion-activated clips from Ring doorbells and cameras.
  • Video Descriptions is available in English to Ring Home Premium subscribers in the U.S. and Canada and can be enabled through the Ring app.
  • Ring confirms it does not retain generated descriptions and aims to reduce notification overload by focusing alerts on meaningful activities.
  • This rollout follows Ring’s recent AI-powered search launch and underscores the company’s broader push into generative AI for home security.
  • Planned enhancements include combining multiple motion events into a single alert and custom anomaly alerts that adapt to a home’s routine.
