EyeZo serves the video files already on your computer to your iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Vision Pro — over your home network. No accounts. No cloud. Just press play.
EyeZo does one thing.
We left everything else out on purpose.
Point it at a folder of videos and it reads them in place — never moving, re-encoding, or changing a single file. Then your devices browse the folders, scrub through clips, and play in their own native players.
That's the whole product. The video library you already have, on the screens you already own, with nothing standing between them.
Tell the server where your videos live. It reads the directory tree exactly as it is and leaves your files untouched.
One small Node process on a machine you already own — a laptop, a mini, a home server. It stays on your network.
Install EyeZo on your device, point it at the server's address once, and your library is there. Tap a video to watch.
Every device connects to it, so it comes first. Run it once on a machine you already own — it reads your folder of videos and serves them to everything else on your network. One server feeds all of your apps.
With the server running, install EyeZo on whichever devices you like — just one, or every screen in the house. Apple's ecosystem is supported first and most deeply, and each native app comes two ways: download it from the App Store, or build it from source. Or just open it in a web browser — with an Android player on the way.
Just point any web browser at the server's address — nothing to download.
Every client — Apple, web, Android, or one you build yourself — talks to the server over the same open REST API. You can hit it directly with curl too.
Open the app, tap a video, and it starts — in the device's own native player, straight off your network. No syncing, no spinners, no setup screens. Your library is just there.
EyeZo is free and open source. Clone the server, open an app, and watch.
