The Annual Plan Is Now VIP Pro
▸ Annual grew up
WorldEye's annual plan has a new name — VIP Pro — and for once a rename comes with more than a name. VIP Pro is now a true top tier with capabilities the other plans don't have, priced at $74.99 a year for new subscribers, with a 3-day free trial. If you already subscribe annually, you are already VIP Pro: your tier upgraded automatically, at the price you already pay. There is nothing to click.
Pro itself is unchanged — $7.99 a week or $13.99 a month, with the OSINT toolkit, satellite map view, traffic and 20-camera recording. VIP Pro is for the people who kept asking what sits above it. Here's the answer.
▸ Camera alerts that understand 'snow on the road'
VIP Pro's headline feature is camera alerts. Pick up to ten cameras, and describe the condition you care about in plain language — 'snow on the road', 'the parking lot is empty', 'a ship is docked'. About every fifteen minutes, an AI check looks at a fresh still from each camera and judges it against your words. When the condition changes, you get an alert — by email and in the app — with the photo that triggered it attached.
Two design rules keep alerts trustworthy. They fire on change, not on a schedule, so a quiet camera stays quiet. And when the AI can't tell — a dark frame, a fogged lens — the verdict is unknown, and unknown never sends an alert. A monitoring tool that cries wolf gets muted; this one would rather say nothing than guess.
The conditions are yours to write, which makes the same feature serve very different watches: road crews waiting on a pass to fill with snow, harbor watchers waiting for a berth to free up, a facilities team that wants to know when the lot fills. Ten cameras is enough to cover the views one person actually answers for — and few enough that each alert still means something when it arrives.
▸ Timelapse, straight from the camera
VIP Pro adds timelapse: compress a day of weather, a tide cycle, a week of construction into seconds. Timelapses are built from frames of the camera you're watching, captured as the feed refreshes, and export as video you can keep and share. Mountain weather is the showcase use — a storm front crossing a pass, clouds pouring over a ridge — but harbor tides and city rush hours are close behind.
▸ Forty cameras, and the layers above Pro
Recording doubles: VIP Pro records up to 40 cameras at once — Pro records 20 — and adds the recording dashboard for managing captures across all of them. The live intel layers also live at this tier now: the cyber, maritime and GDELT incident feeds, plus live news, that turn the globe into a monitoring wall. The OSINT toolkit itself — DNS, WHOIS and network lookups — stays on Pro, as before.
▸ The tiers, plainly
Free covers the globe, the cameras, flights, satellites and weather with no signup. Pro adds the toolkit, satellite view, traffic, advanced search and recording. VIP Pro adds alerts, timelapse, the intel layers and the doubled recording cap for $74.99 a year — and every first charge on any plan carries the same 7-day money-back guarantee. Compare them side by side on the pricing page, and manage or upgrade an existing plan from your subscription page.
Every tier can be tried before it is bought. Weekly and monthly plans carry a 1-day free trial; VIP Pro carries a 3-day trial, so the alerts, timelapse and intel layers can run against your own cameras and your own questions before the first charge ever lands.
▸ Frequently asked questions
I'm already an annual subscriber. What changed for me?+
Your plan is now called VIP Pro and includes camera alerts, timelapse, 40-camera recording, the recording dashboard and the intel layers — automatically, at the price you already pay. No action is needed.
How much is VIP Pro?+
$74.99 a year for new subscribers, with a 3-day free trial. Like every WorldEye plan, the first charge is covered by a 7-day money-back guarantee — email us within seven days and we refund it; that's a refund, not just a cancellation.
How do camera alerts decide when to notify me?+
Roughly every 15 minutes an AI check compares a fresh still from your camera against the condition you wrote, in your words. You're notified only when the verdict changes — and never when the check can't tell, so ambiguous frames don't become false alarms. Alerts arrive by email and in the app, with the triggering photo.
Can I upgrade from Pro to VIP Pro?+
Yes — from Manage Subscription, without leaving WorldEye. The upgrade is handled on site, and VIP Pro takes effect as your plan's tier straight away.
