AI Activity Filters

Q: What is AI Activity Filtering?

AI Activity Filters uses natural-language search to help you quickly find events across your Alarm.com system and surface relevant video clips when available.

Q: What kinds of questions can I ask?

Use everyday language, such as:• "Who unlocked the front door?" • "When was the garage door opened?" • "Show me deliveries today." • "Find activity from last night." No special keywords or commands are required.

Q: Does AI Activity Filters work with video?

Yes. When AI Video Event Search is enabled, relevant video clips automatically appear alongside matching activity events, giving you more context in a single search.

Q: Can I refine my searches?

Yes. You can filter results by timeframe, device, user, event type, and more. Save frequently used searches as Quick Filters for one-tap access.

Q: Where can I use AI Activity Filters?

AI Activity Filters is available on both the Alarm.com app and website, so you can quickly find what you need whether you're at home or on the go.
