The Professional "Everything" Camera for Creators

The BirdDog MAKI Live is a powerhouse of versatility packed into a remarkably compact form factor. Designed specifically for the modern era of hybrid communication, it bridges the gap between a high-end webcam and a professional broadcast camera. Whether you are a podcaster needing a discreet overhead shot, an educator streaming a lab session, or a corporate professional wanting to stand out on Zoom, the MAKI Live delivers broadcast-grade 4K quality with "plug-and-play" simplicity.

Cutting-Edge AI and Audio Intelligence

What sets the MAKI Live apart is its onboard intelligence. The AI-assisted gesture recognition allows presenters to control their own zoom levels without a remote, while the sophisticated AI noise isolation filters out background hums and distractions. This ensures that your production value remains high, even when you're working as a solo operator in a less-than-perfect acoustic environment.

Seamless IP-Based Workflow

As part of the BirdDog ecosystem, the MAKI Live is built for the future of video-over-IP. With support for the latest NDI|HX3 standard, it provides high-quality video with minimal network impact. The ability to switch between Wi-Fi hotspot (AP) mode and client mode makes it incredibly easy to deploy in the field, while the ToF autofocus ensures your image stays razor-sharp, even during fast-moving demonstrations.
