Traditional CCTV is essentially a digital witness; it records a crime as it happens so you can watch the footage after the fact. scOS is a digital security guard. While standard systems rely on basic 'motion detection' that triggers for every spider web or gust of wind, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity.' It understands the difference between a person approaching your front door and a tree swaying in the breeze. More importantly, scOS doesn't just watch; it acts. By automatically detecting your property boundaries, it can trigger external lights and voice warnings the moment a trespasser crosses the line. It transforms your security from a passive recording device into a proactive intelligence system that stops crime before it happens, providing a level of protection that old-fashioned CCTV simply cannot match.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic. If you already have a wired IP camera system installed at your Bletchingley property—whether it's Hikvision, Dahua, Reolink, or another professional brand—our Intelligence Hub can often transform those 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent AI network. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes between 4 and 6 hours, our engineers will assess your existing hardware. By connecting your current cameras to the scOS Hub, we can apply our MotionX detection and proactive response features to your existing setup. This means you don't necessarily need to start from scratch to benefit from world-class AI protection. We focus on wired connections over wireless to ensure your system remains stable and cannot be defeated by simple signal jammers, providing a robust upgrade to your home's current defences.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to stop criminals before they even reach your door. The first layer is Presence Simulation; the system learns your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making the house appear occupied. The second layer is our MotionX detection, which identifies a person the moment they step onto your property, regardless of whether they are wearing a hood or trying to hide their face. The third and most direct layer is Active Intervention. When the AI detects a genuine threat, it triggers an escalating response. This starts with instant illumination from external lights and can progress to clear voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. Unlike a standard alarm that rings while the thief is already inside, scOS makes it clear to the intruder that they have been spotted and are being monitored, usually causing them to flee immediately.

At scOS, we believe your security data should be your business and no one else's. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all our data centres are located right here in the UK. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your personal information and video footage are handled with the highest standards of privacy. Unlike many international competitors, we never sell your data to third parties. 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 analysis or remote access. You have full control over your data, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks, accessible only by you through our secure app, no matter where you are in the world.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you who is at the door or, more often, shows you a recording of someone stealing a parcel after they've already left. scOS is a proactive, whole-property solution. While a doorbell only covers a tiny fraction of your home's exterior, scOS monitors your entire property boundary. Our AI doesn't just wait for someone to press a button; it identifies suspicious behaviour, such as someone loitering near your vehicles or checking side gates. Because scOS uses professional wired cameras and external IoT speakers, it can deliver a much more powerful deterrent than the tiny speaker in a doorbell. It’s the difference between a doorbell that says 'I saw you' and an intelligent system that says 'I am watching you, and you need to leave now.'

Bletchingley's location near the M25 and A25 makes it a prime target for professional burglars who value quick escape routes. scOS is designed to counter this by removing the anonymity these criminals rely on. Our AI detects suspicious activity the moment someone enters your property boundary, not just when they reach the house. By triggering immediate voice warnings and lights, scOS makes it clear that the property is actively protected. Furthermore, our DVLA Vehicle Recognition can log the plates of any vehicle entering your driveway, providing Surrey Police with high-quality evidence that can be crucial in tracking down professional gangs.

For Bletchingley residents who commute into London, leaving the house empty all day is a major concern. scOS offers 'Presence Simulation,' which is far more advanced than simple light timers. The system learns your actual daily routines—when you're in the kitchen, when you're in the lounge, and when you go to bed. When you're at work or away on holiday, scOS replicates these patterns inside your home, making it appear occupied to anyone watching from the street. This 'lived-in' appearance is the single most effective way to deter burglars from even considering your home as a target.

In a village like Bletchingley, gardens are often visited by foxes, deer, and other wildlife. Traditional security systems often trigger false alarms for these movements, leading many owners to eventually ignore their alerts. scOS uses MotionX technology, which is specifically trained to ignore animals and environmental factors like wind or swaying branches. It focuses only on 'important activity'—human presence and vehicle movement. This means you won't be bothered by notifications while you're out for dinner or at work unless there is a genuine reason for concern, giving you true peace of mind.
