Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive guardian. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every spider web or gust of wind, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity' only. It recognises people and vehicles with 99.9% accuracy, meaning zero false alarms. More importantly, scOS doesn't just watch—it intervenes. By detecting a threat before a break-in occurs, the system can automatically trigger external lights and AI-driven voice warnings to deter the intruder. It’s the difference between having a witness and having a security guard who never sleeps.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning we can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a truly intelligent security network. We work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, our engineers will assess your current setup. We then connect your cameras to our scOS Intelligence Hub, which provides the local processing power needed for our MotionX AI. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI protection without the cost of replacing all your existing hardware, provided the cameras meet basic resolution and connectivity standards.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your home's normal patterns and simulates human activity inside—like moving lights—to make the property look occupied even when you're away. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies a person the moment they step onto your property, regardless of whether they are wearing a mask or trying to hide. Finally, we use Active Intervention. If a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just send a notification; it automatically illuminates the area and delivers authoritative voice warnings through external IoT speakers. This escalating response is designed to make any intruder realise they have been spotted and that the home is actively defended.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your video data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for immediate action, and then securely escalated to our UK-based data centres for storage and remote access. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your data remains yours and is never sold or shared with third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks with 24/7 coverage. Because we use local processing combined with secure UK cloud storage, you get the speed of local intelligence with the reliability of cloud backup.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at your front door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a slow sensor. scOS is a comprehensive property intelligence system. While a doorbell covers a few square metres, scOS monitors your entire property boundary, from the driveway to the back fence. Our AI detects threats long before they reach your door, allowing for proactive intervention. Furthermore, doorbells are often wireless and prone to signal jamming; scOS uses professional wired connections for 'un-jammable' reliability. We don't just show you who's there; we stop the crime from happening in the first place.

Baildon's unique topography, with its steep hills and proximity to the moors, can create 'blind spots' for traditional security. scOS uses MotionX AI which is specifically trained to recognise human forms even on inclines or when partially obscured by moorland mist. Whether your property is on a steep drive near the station or overlooking the Glen, our AI ensures that movement is accurately categorised, providing robust protection that West Yorkshire Police's standard advice often can't cover.

Vehicle theft is a concern across West Yorkshire, and Baildon is no exception. scOS features integrated DVLA Vehicle Recognition. This doesn't just spot a car; it checks the registration against the DVLA database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or an unknown registration enters your driveway, scOS can alert you immediately and even trigger a voice warning to let the driver know they are being monitored. This is a powerful deterrent for criminals scouting the area for high-value cars.

Baildon is a close-knit community, and we respect that. Our AI-driven boundary detection is incredibly precise. It automatically identifies your property lines, ensuring that the 'Active Intervention' (like lights and voice warnings) only triggers when someone is actually on your land. It won't go off when your neighbour is putting their bins out or when someone is walking their dog on the public pavement, maintaining your privacy and your relationship with the community.
