Traditional CCTV is a passive witness that merely records crime as it happens, often leaving you with grainy footage of a person in a hoodie. scOS is a proactive digital guard that uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity'—like a person loitering—while ignoring wind, spiders, and animals. Unlike standard systems that rely on easily-triggered motion masks, scOS understands the context of your property, intervening with lights and voice warnings to stop an intruder before they reach your door.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent security network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, we will assess your current hardware to ensure it meets the requirements for our Intelligence Hub to process the high-quality data needed for our AI features.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First, Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking human activity patterns inside when you're away. Second, our MotionX AI detects intruders the moment they cross your property boundary, regardless of whether they are wearing a mask or trying to hide their shape. Finally, the system triggers an escalating response: instant illumination followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers to let the intruder know they have been spotted.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. All data is processed through a combination of your local Intelligence Hub and our secure UK data centres, ensuring full GDPR compliance. Unlike many international brands, we never sell your data or allow third-party access; your footage and activity patterns remain entirely under your control and are accessible only by you through our encrypted app.

A video doorbell only tells you someone is at the door once they've already arrived, which is often too late. scOS protects your entire property boundary, detecting a threat as soon as they step onto your driveway or garden in Arlesey. While a doorbell is a reactive tool, scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses escalating deterrents to ensure a criminal never gets close enough to ring the bell in the first place.

For Arlesey residents commuting to London or via the A1, homes are often left empty for 10-12 hours a day. Our Presence Simulation feature is designed specifically for this, using AI to simulate realistic human activity inside your home—turning lights on and off in a natural pattern—to make it appear occupied. This deters opportunistic burglars who scout the village for empty commuter homes during the day.

scOS Director allows you to talk to your home security system as if you were talking to a guard. While you're on the train or at work, you can ask natural questions like 'Has anyone been to the side gate today?' or 'What time did the delivery arrive?'. It provides instant, conversational answers based on the AI's analysis of your property's activity, giving you total peace of mind without scrolling through hours of footage.

Bedfordshire Police often deal with 'car-key burglaries' where thieves target specific vehicles. scOS uses DVLA Vehicle Recognition to monitor every car that enters your driveway, and our Covered Face Detection flags anyone approaching your home with a hood or mask. By detecting these suspicious behaviours early, scOS can trigger a voice deterrent to scare them off before they even attempt to enter your home.
