Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime while it happens but does nothing to stop it. scOS is an active participant in your home's security. Our revolutionary MotionX technology moves beyond simple motion detection, which often triggers false alarms from spiders or wind. Instead, it focuses on 'important activity,' recognising people regardless of how they move or if they attempt to conceal their identity. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks, scOS works out of the box, automatically detecting your property boundaries. When a genuine threat is identified, the system doesn't just alert you; it intervenes with automatic light responses and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers. It’s the difference between having a witness and having a digital security guard on duty 24/7.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic. If you already have a wired IP camera system from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti, we can likely transform those 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent scOS-powered network. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes between 4 and 6 hours, our engineers will assess your existing hardware. By connecting your current cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we can apply our MotionX AI and proactive protection features to your existing setup. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI security without the cost of replacing every camera on your property, provided they meet the necessary technical standards for high-quality video feed integration.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your normal internal activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making your home appear occupied to any onlookers. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour or person recognition (distinguishing family from strangers) the moment someone steps onto your property. Finally, if a threat is confirmed, the system initiates Active Intervention. This starts with instant illumination to let the intruder know they've been spotted, followed by escalating voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. These aren't just pre-recorded loops; they are AI-driven responses that grow more assertive if the intruder remains, effectively scaring them off before they ever reach your door.

Privacy and trust are at the core of scOS. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR regulations. Unlike many international competitors, we never sell your data. Our system uses a hybrid processing model: the scOS Intelligence Hub handles most of the heavy lifting locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced AI analysis or remote access. You have total control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. You can access your data from anywhere in the world, knowing it is protected by British privacy standards.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you who is at the door once they've already arrived. scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to stop crime before it happens. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire property boundary. More importantly, doorbells rarely deter a determined criminal who is already at your threshold. scOS identifies threats as they approach your boundary and uses presence simulation and escalating voice deterrents to ensure they never get close enough to ring the bell. It’s a comprehensive security solution that protects your whole home, outbuildings, and vehicles, rather than just monitoring your front mat.

Baston is incredibly safe, but its rural Fenland location means that if an incident does occur, help from Lincolnshire Police can be some distance away. scOS provides an immediate, automated response that doesn't rely on external help. By using escalating voice warnings and instant lighting, the system can often resolve a situation independently. This self-sufficiency is vital for rural peace of mind, ensuring that your home is never truly 'alone' even in the most isolated parts of the village.

Rural properties in Baston often have large gardens or are adjacent to open fields. Traditional motion sensors would be constantly triggered by wind, birds, or farm animals. scOS uses MotionX technology, which is specifically trained to ignore these environmental factors and focus only on 'important activity'—human presence. This means you won't get false alerts from a pheasant in the garden, but you will be notified immediately if a person is approaching your property from the fields. This precision is what makes scOS the perfect fit for Fenland homes.

Yes, scOS is highly effective at protecting farm machinery, trailers, and outbuildings. Our AI automatically detects your property boundaries, providing the same level of proactive monitoring for your sheds and barns as it does for your house. If someone approaches your equipment, the system will trigger a light response and voice warning, deterring theft before it can happen. Because scOS is a wired system, it provides a reliable connection across your entire property, ensuring your livelihood is protected 24/7.
