# Prism Skylabs

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/prism-skylabs/  
**APIs profiled:** 0

Prism Skylabs was a cloud-based visual monitoring and video analytics company that turned surveillance and IP-camera feeds from physical retail and commercial spaces into searchable, time-lapse imagery and business intelligence. Backed by a16z and Draper Nexus, it was acquired by Cisco in 2016 and folded into the Cisco Meraki smart-camera (MV) computer-vision line; the standalone company is defunct. The prismskylabs.com domain now 301-redirects to prism.com, an unrelated domain-licensing/holding page, and no live Prism Skylabs developer portal, API documentation, or API specifications exist to enrich. This profile is retained as an a16z portfolio identity record.
