Standard CCTV is a passive recording tool; it only helps you see what you've already lost. scOS is a proactive security partner. Using our MotionX technology, the system identifies 'important activity'—specifically human threats—while ignoring the wind, rain, and animals common in the Gwent valleys. It doesn't require you to draw lines or zones; it automatically knows where your property ends. While traditional CCTV waits for you to check the app, scOS takes action the moment a threat is detected to stop a crime before it starts.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most professional wired IP camera systems, such as Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. Our professional UK installers can typically integrate your existing cameras into the scOS Intelligence Hub in a single day. This transforms your current setup into a high-IQ AI system, giving you all the benefits of proactive protection and MotionX detection without needing to replace your existing hardware.

scOS uses three layers of deterrence. First, Presence Simulation mimics your daily habits inside the house, making it look occupied even if you're away. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders regardless of how they move or if they try to cover their faces. Third, if a threat is detected, the system triggers an escalating response: instant lighting and authoritative AI voice warnings via external IoT speakers. This multi-stage approach is designed to make any intruder realise the home is intelligently protected and move on.

Your data security is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your footage is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. Processing begins locally on your Intelligence Hub, ensuring fast response times, with only necessary data escalated to the cloud. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are kept for up to two weeks. We never sell your data, ensuring your privacy is always protected.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only sees who is at your front door. scOS provides intelligence for your entire property. In Argoed, where homes often have tiered gardens or side access, a doorbell simply isn't enough. scOS monitors your whole boundary, detecting and deterring intruders at the edge of your property before they ever reach your door. It’s a complete security solution rather than just a notification tool.

Argoed’s valley location can mean unpredictable weather, but scOS is built for it. Our MotionX technology is specifically designed to ignore environmental factors like heavy rain, fog, or swaying trees that often trigger false alarms on standard systems. It focuses purely on 'important activity'—human movement. This means you won't be woken up by false alerts during a Welsh storm, but you will be notified the second a genuine threat is detected.

The steep terrain and secluded spots in Argoed can sometimes make homes feel isolated. scOS features 'scOS Director,' a conversational AI that lets you check on your home just by asking. You can ask, 'Is everything quiet tonight?' or 'Has anyone been in the back garden?' It’s like having a digital security guard who knows every corner of your property, providing peace of mind whether you're at home or away.

While Argoed has a lower crime rate than the national average, property crime still occurs, and secluded valley villages can be targets for those looking for easy opportunities. scOS ensures your home is never the 'easy' option. By proactively deterring intruders with voice warnings and presence simulation, you maintain the safety of your home and contribute to the overall security of the Argoed community.
