Fed up with Lorex?
A different kind of security
What if your cameras could prevent crime, not just record it?
Video doorbell
Someone approaches your home
Camera records what happens
You get a notification (maybe)
Crime already happened. You have footage.
Makes criminals vulnerable
Someone approaches your home
AI analyses their behaviour in real-time
Suspicious? System intervenes automatically
They leave. Crime prevented.
Lorex Cloud is notorious for connection failures, crashing, and showing cameras offline when they're not. Users report spending hours with support and still can't connect. scOS is designed to work reliably - and you'll rarely need to open it.

Lorex Cloud app fails to connect repeatedly - Android, iOS, even desktop crashes
scOS
Rock-solid connectivity
We're not saying Lorex is bad.
It just wasn't built to prevent crime.
It was built for surveillance.
| Lorex | scOS | |
|---|---|---|
| Camera Hardware | Solid 4K PoE cameras | Works with your Lorex PoE cameras |
| AI Detection | Basic motion/person detection | Behavioural AI with context |
| False Alert Rate | High (headlights, shadows, weather) | Sees like a human would |
| Response to Threats | Records footage | Automated intervention |
| Cross-Camera Intelligence | None | Tracks activity across cameras |
| Mobile App | Lorex Cloud (connection issues) | Designed to never need it |
| Storage | Local NVR | Cloud with local fallback |
| Vehicle Recognition | Basic detection | DVLA number plate verification |
| Customer Support | Long waits, inconsistent help | Dedicated scOS Architect |
| Remote Access | Cloud discontinued for older NVRs | Reliable cloud connectivity |

If you're searching for ways to upgrade your Lorex system, you've probably experienced the frustration firsthand: decent cameras, disappointing software. The hardware works. The NVR records. But the app disconnects, the detection triggers on everything, and when something actually happens - you just get footage of it.
Good news: you don't need to replace your cameras. You need smarter software.
Lorex makes solid PoE camera hardware. The cameras are reliable, the 4K quality is good, and the value is reasonable. But the software lets everything down:
Yes - and you keep your existing cameras.
scOS connects to your existing Lorex PoE cameras and adds the intelligence layer that your NVR simply cannot provide:
Behavioural analysis:
Cross-camera intelligence:
Actual prevention:
One of the biggest Lorex frustrations is remote connectivity. Their cloud service has been discontinued for some NVR models, leaving users with only port forwarding as an option.
scOS provides reliable cloud connectivity that doesn't depend on Lorex's infrastructure. Your cameras, your footage, accessible when you need it.
You've already invested in decent PoE cameras. The hardware isn't the problem - the software is. scOS adds the AI layer that transforms passive recording into active protection.
Your cameras still capture everything. Your local storage still works as a backup. But now you have AI that understands context and takes action when threats are real.
Here's the thing about security cameras: they've been solving the wrong problem. Every system out there is obsessed with recording. More pixels. More storage. More footage of crimes that already happened.
We asked a different question. What if your cameras could actually prevent crime?
scOS focuses on detecting suspicious activity - not just motion, not just people, but genuine threats. It only alerts you when something matters. Just like a person would.
And here's what we're most proud of: it's designed to be left alone. No tweaking sensitivity sliders. No training periods. No daily check-ins. Install it and forget it exists - until it stops a crime.
Every feature is included. No tiers. No upsells. No "premium AI detection" add-ons.
And it works with any wired camera brand. Including your Lorex.
It's simple. An engineer comes to your property, sets up your Intelligence Hub, and connects your cameras. That's it.
Note: scOS works with Lorex wired PoE systems. Proprietary wireless Lorex cameras are not compatible.
No pressure. See what a scOS system would look like for your home. Your dedicated scOS Architect will handle the rest.
