UK's first autonomous crime prevention system
Starting from 63p/day
No obligation
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 Balcombe
Standard CCTV is a passive observer; it records crime but does nothing to stop it. scOS is an active participant. Using MotionX AI, it identifies important activity (like a person approaching a window) while ignoring spiders and pets. It then takes action, using lights and voice deterrents to scare off intruders before they can break in.
Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision or Dahua, we can usually connect them to our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing setup into a proactive AI security system without the need for a total hardware replacement.
We use three layers of deterrence. Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking your internal activity patterns. MotionX AI detects intruders even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Finally, active intervention uses external lights and AI voice warnings to let intruders know they are being monitored and that their presence is not welcome.
Your data is safe with us. scOS is 100% UK-based, and all your footage is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. We never sell your data, and our system uses local processing for maximum speed and privacy.
A video doorbell only shows you who is at the door, often after they've already arrived. scOS monitors your entire property and uses AI to stop criminals before they ever reach your front door. It provides 24/7 recording and a much wider field of protection than any doorbell can offer.
For Balcombe residents commuting via the Ouse Valley Viaduct line, Presence Simulation is a game-changer. It mimics your usual evening routines—turning lights on and off in different rooms—to make your home look occupied even when you're still on the train back from London.
Yes, scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition. It automatically checks the registration of any car entering your driveway against official databases. This allows the system to identify and alert you to suspicious or cloned plates, providing an extra layer of security for your vehicles.
Installation is a professional, hassle-free process. Our UK-based engineers typically complete a full setup in 4 to 6 hours. We handle everything from the wiring to the AI calibration, ensuring your system is fully operational and protecting your home by the time we leave.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
