UK's first autonomous crime prevention system
Starting from 63p/day

Every time you leave home, there's that nagging worry. Did I lock up properly? Is someone watching the house? You shouldn't have to feel anxious about your own home.
Something happened in the garden last night. Now you're scrubbing through 8 hours of footage trying to find 30 seconds of activity. Life's too short for this.
Your phone buzzes constantly. A cat. Cobwebs. Headlights. After a while you stop checking, which defeats the entire point of having cameras.
Not motion. Not shadows. scOS detects the kind of activity a trained security guard would notice. When your phone buzzes, it matters.
Family, friends, the builder—scOS learns who belongs. No repetitive alerts for familiar faces. Only strangers trigger attention.
Message scOS for pre-edited clips across all cameras, or ask when the bin was last emptied. It's like having staff you can actually talk to.
No hidden fees. No premium tiers. All features included from day one.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Alderley Edge
Traditional CCTV is passive; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is proactive. Using our proprietary MotionX technology, the system identifies 'important activity' rather than just simple motion. This means it ignores wind, cobwebs, and animals, focusing only on genuine threats like people or vehicles. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks, scOS works out of the box, automatically detecting your property boundaries and intervening with lights and voice warnings to stop a crime before it happens.
Absolutely. scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. Our professional UK installation team will assess your current setup during the single-day install process. We transform your 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent network by connecting them to our scOS Intelligence Hub, which provides the AI processing power needed to modernise your existing security infrastructure without needing to replace every camera.
scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics human activity patterns inside your home to make it appear occupied even when you're away. Second, MotionX detection identifies suspicious behaviour at your property boundary, even if an intruder is masked or crawling. Third, the system triggers Active Intervention: instant illumination and escalating voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. This proactive approach is designed to make an intruder feel 'watched' and 'identified,' forcing them to flee before they attempt a break-in.
Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring your footage remains your property. Our system uses a hybrid approach: the scOS Intelligence Hub processes data locally for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure cloud for advanced analysis and remote access. We never sell your data to third parties, and you have total control over who can view your feeds.
A video doorbell is a reactive tool that usually only covers your front door and alerts you when someone is already there. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, detects threats long before they reach the door, and uses AI to intervene automatically. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from even stepping onto your driveway, providing a much higher level of protection for your entire home.
In Alderley Edge, high-value properties are often targeted by professional criminals who use masks or hoods to avoid identification. scOS features Covered Face Detection, which specifically flags anyone approaching your property with their face concealed. Instead of just recording a masked figure, the system recognises the threat immediately and triggers an escalating response—using lights and voice warnings to let the intruder know they have been detected by an intelligent system.
Yes. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which is essential for monitoring the high volume of traffic in Alderley Edge. The system logs every vehicle that enters your property and checks the registration against the national database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or a history of suspicious activity is detected, scOS can alert you instantly, allowing you to take action before a crime occurs.
We offer a bespoke, white-glove installation service for residents in Alderley Edge. Our UK-based engineers will design a system that covers every angle of your property, ensuring no blind spots. The installation is typically completed in a single day (4-6 hours) and includes the setup of the scOS Intelligence Hub, integration with your existing cameras, and a full demonstration of the scOS Director AI. We ensure the system is discreet yet powerful, maintaining the aesthetic of your home.
