Traditional CCTV is essentially a recording device that allows you to watch a crime after it has happened. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity' in real-time. Unlike standard systems that trigger alerts for every passing cat or swaying branch, scOS ignores these distractions, focusing only on genuine threats like people or vehicles. It doesn't require you to draw complex motion masks; the AI automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record—it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop the intruder before they can cause damage.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP cameras, such as those from Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup and integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing 'dumb' cameras into a powerful AI-driven security network. It’s an ideal way for residents in Baldwin's Gate to upgrade to professional-grade AI security without the expense of replacing their entire existing camera hardware.

scOS uses a unique three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic human activity inside your home, making it look occupied even when you're out for dinner or away on holiday. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour and can even spot people trying to hide their identity with hoods or masks. Finally, if an intruder crosses your boundary, the system triggers an escalating response, including automatic light illumination and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive approach ensures that potential criminals are deterred long before they attempt to enter your home.

We prioritise your privacy by processing data locally on your scOS Intelligence Hub. Only critical events are escalated to our secure, 100% UK-based cloud servers for further analysis. We are fully GDPR compliant, and your data is never sold or shared with third parties. You have full control over your footage, which is stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you via our secure app. By keeping our operations, support, and data centres within the UK, we ensure your home's intelligence is protected by the highest standards of British data security.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only covers your front door; it doesn't stop someone from entering through a side gate or a back window. scOS provides comprehensive, 360-degree protection for your entire property. Unlike doorbells, which can be prone to lag and WiFi jamming, scOS uses reliable wired connections. Most importantly, scOS is designed to prevent crime through proactive measures like presence simulation and voice deterrents. It stops intruders before they reach your door, providing a level of security and peace of mind that a simple doorbell simply cannot offer.

Baldwin's Gate is a safe and desirable area, but its affluence and location on the A53 can make it a target for sophisticated criminals looking for high-value properties. scOS is designed to combat this by being proactive rather than reactive. Our Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied at all times, which is the single most effective way to deter burglars who scout neighbourhoods. By installing scOS, you aren't just getting a camera; you're getting an AI security guard that ensures your home never looks like an easy target, maintaining the peace and security of your village lifestyle.

Many residents in Baldwin's Gate commute to nearby towns or work long hours. scOS is perfect for this lifestyle. Our Presence Simulation AI learns your normal activity patterns and replicates them when you're away, controlling internal lights and devices to make the home look lived-in. Furthermore, you can use the scOS Director—our conversational AI—to check on your home from anywhere. Just ask, 'Has there been any unusual activity today?' and get a full report. It provides the reassurance that your home is being intelligently monitored, no matter where you are.

Yes, scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which is particularly useful for homes with long driveways or those situated on main roads like the A53. The system automatically scans the registration plates of any vehicle that enters your property and checks them against the DVLA database. This allows it to identify suspicious or cloned plates. If an unrecognised vehicle lingers or enters at an unusual time, scOS can alert you immediately and even initiate a voice deterrent to let the driver know they are being recorded, effectively deterring 'car-key' burglars.
