Reincubate

Camo turns phones and computers into video tools

Reincubate develops Camo, a camera application that lets people use an iPhone or other compatible device as a high-quality webcam for a computer. The product is aimed at video calls, recordings and live production, where a mobile camera can provide a different view or better placement than a built-in laptop camera. Camo is available across major desktop and mobile platforms, with a perpetually free version and paid features; compatibility and plan details are set out on the Camo product pages.

Camo Studio for production and streaming

Camo Studio adds production controls for creators and teams. Its recent releases include multistreaming, configurable web layers, dockable control panels and an Elgato Stream Deck plugin on Windows, with audio mixing, chat and web layers, scene transitions and multistreaming on macOS. The company also offers a Camo Studio app for iPhone with vertical and landscape scenes, front and rear cameras, screen capture, lighting and background effects, plus USB and Bluetooth microphone support. Available features depend on the app and operating system.

Privacy, support and customer access

Reincubate says Camo does not store or analyse users’ video and that footage only goes to destinations chosen by the user. The company highlights privacy, accessibility, automation support and localized product guidance among its design priorities. Its site links to technical help, licence management, product reviews and direct contact. Buyers can consult support resources for setup and licence questions, while the free edition provides a way to evaluate the workflow before choosing additional capabilities.

Company history and partnerships

Reincubate Ltd was founded in London in 2008 by Aidan Fitzpatrick, after an earlier iOS data-recovery project. The company describes subsequent work in encryption, iCloud and recovery before its focus on video software. It identifies partnerships with organizations including Microsoft, Apple, AMD, Intel, NVIDIA, Qualcomm and Snap, and reports a continuing research and development programme. Reincubate is privately held, registered in England and Wales under company number 5189175, and publishes its company values and editorial policies online.

Products, recognition and company information

Alongside its Camo apps, Reincubate maintains support material, a company and values section, technical articles, press resources and product reviews. Its homepage reports four King's Awards for Enterprise, most recently for company growth, and links to coverage in outlets including the Financial Times, The Sunday Times, Windows Central and TechRadar. The company presents software for video communication and production rather than an in-person service; product availability, platform requirements, licences and refund terms should be checked on the relevant product page.
