Blink cameras can now tell you what they’re seeing with video descriptions.

The feature uses AI to give you more detailed motion notifications, like describing people the camera or doorbell detects, much like the AI video descriptions Ring cameras got earlier this year.

Video descriptions are launching as an early access beta feature and require a paid Blink subscription.
