About SAMi The Sleep Activity Monitor:

SAMi® is a video-based sleep activity monitor for parents, caregivers and individuals that need to watch carefully for unusual movements at night. SAMi can detect and alarm on all types of movement, with settings that can be easily customized to your individual needs. During sleep, the SAMi camera's proprietary technology monitors for unusual or abnormal movement in the field of view. When abnormal movement is detected, an alarm sounds on the Apple device running the SAMi iOS app (iPhone / iPod / iPad / Mac) and displays a live video / audio feed. Within seconds, the individual or caregiver can take any necessary action. SAMi will not only reliably alert you to abnormal movement, but automatically records high quality video and audio of the event, providing invaluable video evidence for Neurologists, Epileptologists, and other Healthcare providers to accurately diagnose and prescribe effective treatment plans. For more information, visit SAMi’s website at www.samialert.com.

“The SAMi cam has given me peace I didn’t know existed! My daughter has nightly seizures so when she would lay down I would too so I could be with her to know when she was having one. Now I’m able to spend time with my husband, clean up the house, or just simply have some time to myself while monitoring her the whole. I’m so thankful for this product it truly changed our lives!”

“Nous sommes canadiens et aucun système au Canada existe pour surveiller notre bébé de 13 mois qui fait des convulsions, alors nous avons opté pour cela. Nous pouvons mieux dormir depuis l’achat de la SaMI. Merci.”

“The relief that I have now and ability to sleep without having to wake up hourly to check on her. There are not enough words to describe my feelings for the SAMi monitor. It is a lifesaver and you will not regret your decision to purchase the SAMi kit.”

“As the mother of a child with uncontrolled seizures, every night is filled with fear. You never truly sleep because you're always wondering, "What if he has a seizure and I don't know?" That fear never leaves you. For years, my son's team of neurologists and neurosurgeons recommended the Sami seizure monitor. I'll be honest—I was skeptical. It was a big investment, and I questioned whether it would really detect my son's seizures. After going back and forth, I finally decided to purchase the complete setup: the Sami monitor, the Sami pillow, and the floor stand. It cost around $1,800, and I prayed it would be worth every penny. Before I even received the equipment, I was blown away by the customer service. Every person I spoke with treated me with kindness and compassion. They patiently answered every question I had, never rushed me off the phone, and truly cared about my son and our family's journey. They didn't make me feel like just another customer—they made me feel understood. Three weeks after setting everything up, Sami proved itself. The iPad alarm sounded, letting me know it had detected movement. I muted the alert and looked at the screen. At first, I honestly thought my son was just moving around in his sleep. Then I noticed the movement being highlighted around his head and shoulders. Something didn't feel right. I ran to his room. My son was having a seizure. Without Sami, I would have never known. I would have continued sleeping, believing everything was okay while my son was actively seizing. That realization hit me harder than words can describe. As a parent of a child with epilepsy, you know that every seizure carries fear. You worry about injuries. You worry about prolonged seizures. You worry about the one seizure that could change everything. Knowing that Sami is watching when my eyes can't gives me something I haven't had in a very long time—peace of mind. No piece of technology can take epilepsy away. It can't stop the seizures. But it can give parents precious time. It can alert us when our children need us most. And sometimes, those few moments can mean everything. To everyone at Sami, thank you. Thank you for creating something that is more than just a monitor. You have created hope, reassurance, and another set of eyes for parents who live with the constant fear of missing a seizure. From one very grateful mom... thank you.”

“I was hooping this camera would work but it is not compatible with Starlink. I could not get it set up.”

Hi Susan! Thanks for the feedback. In some situations, it may work if your Starlink router includes an Ethernet port, but we can't guarantee compatibility. Based on our experience, it has unfortunately not worked with Starlink reliably, which is why we note on our website that it's not Starlink-compatible. For customers experiencing connectivity challenges with Starlink, we often recommend the Sami Hub. It creates a dedicated network just for your Sami camera, so you don't have to connect the camera directly to your Starlink network! This provides a simple, consistent network for your Sami system, and many families find it makes setup much easier.

“I purchased the SAMi camera package for my great granddaughter who I’ve obtained custody of that has epilepsy. I can now get better sleep, knowing that the alarm will wake me up if she has a seizure during the night. Thank you for allowing me to breath easier and nit have to constantly watch her old monitor after she goes to bed. I can actually do other things around the house.”

“I had high hopes. The product itself essentially is good, does what it’s supposed to I suppose.. if you live in the city and don’t do anything outside of parenting. I have a ranch and horses and cattle. And if I leave the house the monitor won’t connect to my phone and I can’t keep an eye on my daughter. It was a lot of money to have the relief of being able to watch over her, but a lot of money to find out I don’t actually have that”

“We love our Sami device. It gives us the peace of mind we need to sleep at night after our daughter had a seizure out of nowhere a couple of weeks ago. It’s extremely customizable to make sure it works for each individual family’s needs, and we were able to use HSA funds to pay for it, so that really helped. Wonderful aid! Thank you!”

“Sami has given me everything that is needed !!!! Sleep, peace of mind, captured video of seizures, capability to share those directly with dr. The help support line is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!! They are there for me in seconds and ready to jump on a call or help through troubleshooting via email! I feel like Sami is watching over my son and being my eyes when I need to close mine. I can’t say enough good things about this life saving, life changing monitor♥️♥️ there are also so many foundations out there ready to assist if you need help like we did! As well as payment plans! I highly recommend purchasing the hub with it as well. You will never have to worry about losing connection or having any type of Wi-Fi interferences. It always stays connected, which again gives me more peace of mind.. WE LOVE YOU SAMI !!!!!”
