Frigate+ is under active development. Models are available as a part of an invitation only beta. It is free to create an account and upload/annotate your examples.
Frigate+ offers models trained from scratch and specifically designed for the way Frigate NVR analyzes video footage. They offer higher accuracy with less resources and include a more relevant set of objects for security cameras. By uploading your own labeled examples, your model can be uniquely tuned for accuracy in your specific conditions. After tuning, performance is evaluated against a broad dataset and real world examples submitted by other Frigate+ users to prevent overfitting.
Free accounts can be created at [https://plus.frigate.video](https://plus.frigate.video).
### Generate an API key
Once logged in, you can generate an API key for Frigate in Settings.
### Set your API key
In Frigate, you can set the `PLUS_API_KEY` environment variable to enable the `SEND TO FRIGATE+` buttons on the events page. You can set it in your Docker Compose file or in your Docker run command. Home Assistant Addon users can set it under Settings > Addons > Frigate NVR > Configuration > Options (be sure to toggle the "Show unused optional configuration options" switch).
:::caution
You cannot use the `environment_vars` section of your configuration file to set this environment variable.
Models available in Frigate+ can be used with a special model path. No other information needs to be configured for Frigate+ models because it fetches the remaining config from Frigate+ automatically.
```yaml
model:
path: plus://e63b7345cc83a84ed79dedfc99c16616
```
Models are downloaded into the `/config/model_cache` folder and only downloaded if needed.
You can override the labelmap for Frigate+ models like this:
