Traditional CCTV is a passive system that simply records footage for later viewing. scOS is a proactive AI security system that actively works to prevent crime before it happens. It features our proprietary MotionX technology, which identifies 'important activity'—like a person lurking—while ignoring false triggers such as wind, rain, or animals. Unlike standard systems, scOS doesn't require you to manually set up motion zones; it automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with escalating deterrents like automated lighting and AI voice warnings from external IoT speakers. It’s a complete security solution that stops intruders before they can cause any harm to your Addlestone home.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and compatible with most professional wired IP cameras, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. Our Intelligence Hub can take the feed from your existing 'dumb' cameras and upgrade them with our advanced AI features, such as MotionX detection and DVLA vehicle recognition. This allows you to benefit from proactive AI security without needing to replace your entire existing camera setup. During our professional 4-6 hour installation, our UK-based engineers will integrate your current hardware into the scOS ecosystem, providing a seamless and cost-effective upgrade for your Addlestone property.

scOS uses a multi-layered approach to deter criminals. The first layer is Presence Simulation, where the AI learns your home's internal activity patterns and mimics them when you're away, making your house look occupied. The second layer is MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour on your property's boundary, even if an intruder is trying to hide their face or figure. The final layer is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected, the system triggers instant lighting and escalating voice warnings through external IoT speakers. This immediate, intelligent response lets the intruder know they've been spotted, which is usually enough to make them flee before they can attempt a break-in.

We take your data privacy very seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in full compliance with GDPR. We use a hybrid 'Local + Cloud' processing model, where most of the AI analysis is done locally on your Intelligence Hub for maximum speed and privacy. Data is only sent to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced processing or remote access. You have full ownership of your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. We never sell your data to third parties, ensuring your home security remains private and secure.

A video doorbell is a basic tool that only monitors your front door and can be easily 'jammed' because it relies on Wi-Fi. scOS is a professional-grade, whole-property intelligence system that uses reliable wired connections. It monitors your entire boundary, including driveways, side gates, and gardens. Unlike a doorbell, which only sends a notification when someone is already at your door, scOS proactively deters intruders with lights and voice warnings before they even reach your house. It’s a comprehensive security solution designed to prevent crime, rather than just recording it, providing much greater protection for your Addlestone home.

Addlestone has a higher-than-average crime rate, making proactive security essential. scOS is specifically designed to address this by moving beyond passive recording. Our MotionX AI is incredibly effective at identifying suspicious behaviour, such as someone 'casing' your property or attempting to hide their face. By providing an immediate, automated response with lights and voice warnings, scOS makes your home a much less attractive target for criminals. It provides a level of active protection that traditional CCTV and alarm systems simply cannot match, giving you and your family greater peace of mind in a busy town environment.

Addlestone's proximity to the M25 and other major routes can make it a target for vehicle-related crime. scOS includes integrated DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies every car that enters your property's vicinity. The system checks registrations against the DVLA database to spot cloned plates or vehicles that have been flagged as suspicious. If an unknown or suspicious vehicle loiters near your driveway, scOS can alert you immediately and even initiate a deterrent response. This proactive approach is far more effective than standard CCTV, as it identifies the threat before an attempt on your vehicle is even made, providing essential protection for car owners in Addlestone.

scOS is designed to be incredibly user-friendly, regardless of your technical ability. Our 'scOS Director' is a conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. You can simply ask, 'Was there any unusual activity last night?' or 'Did the delivery arrive today?' and get a clear, immediate answer. There are no complicated menus or settings to manage. Our professional installation team handles the entire setup, so you can enjoy elite home protection with zero stress. It’s the perfect 'set and forget' security solution for busy Addlestone residents.
