Stop losing bids to better-looking proposals. CCTV Design Tool gives you real-time FOV visualization, accurate cable calculations, and branded PDF proposals with BOM — all from your browser, no software to install.
Trusted by over 12,000 security installers and 40+ enterprise teams worldwide, with 649 verified reviews from professionals in 75+ countries.
When a commercial client gets two bids — one with a hand-drawn sketch, one with a coverage map showing exactly which camera covers which zone plus an itemized pricing sheet — the professional proposal wins. Not always because the price is lower. Because the client trusts that installer more.


Spec the exact cameras your clients are buying — not generic placeholders
Try the full workflow on a real project — for free, with no time limit and no credit card required. Place cameras on an actual floor plan or satellite map, generate a shareable client report, and see exactly what your proposals could look like.
No credit card. No install. Start a real design in 30 seconds.
Camera placement, FOV mapping, cable routing, BOM generation, and professional PDF proposals — every part of your workflow in one browser tab. No installation. No updates.
Show clients exactly what each camera will see. Select from 23,000+ security camera models, adjust FOV angle, mounting height, and zoom — DORI zones and PPM pixel density update in real time. Your client sees proof, not promises.
Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Bosch and 150+ more manufacturers.
NVRs, PoE switches, access control devices and more.
New models added by our team on an ongoing basis.
Report a missing camera or device — the team will add it.
Stop switching between browser tabs and manufacturer PDFs. Search 23,000+ security camera models and 18,000+ network devices — NVRs, PoE switches, access points, access control panels — filter by resolution, codec, and specs, then place them directly into your design.


Every camera, device, cable, and accessory you place gets added to your BOM automatically — no manual spreadsheet, no missed line items. Load your price list, set margins globally or per product, apply tax, and export a client-ready pricing sheet in seconds. Stop underquoting jobs because you forgot to count the patch cables.
Leave Paint and hand-sketches behind. Impress clients with clear PDF reports featuring detailed 2D site plans, coverage maps, and precise equipment lists.

From working installers, not stock-photo reviewers.
"We have been in business for over 14 years, and this is the single most important software we've used. Marking up PDF documents is now a thing of the past, and our clients get a wealth of information that would previously take us 3× the time. Worth every penny."
Security Integrator, NY
"Intuitive and very easy to use from the offset. One of the best design tools I have used — packed full of features and provides in-depth comprehensive reports. Very impressed!"
Security Installer, UK
"Incredibly easy to use, even without deep technical expertise. The drag-and-drop makes layouts a breeze. Visualizing the setup before installation saves time and prevents costly mistakes. I highly recommend it to anyone in the CCTV industry."

"Easy to use interface. Revolutionized our quoting process by adding a professional reporting system — designs displayed clearly for customer consideration. Love it!"
Security Installer, US
"Very easy to use — helps get a real idea of how to position cameras and, when presenting to clients, makes it much easier to explain the coverage and layout."
Security Installer, MX
"Extremely versatile — video, alarms, and much more. Everything is achievable with an impressive detail. The generated reports are both useful and actionable. Highly recommend!"
