Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records your property being burgled so you can watch the footage later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, our proprietary MotionX technology ignores the noise. It focuses exclusively on 'important activity,' recognising human forms even if they are crawling or disguised. More importantly, scOS doesn't just watch—it acts. By detecting a threat at the property boundary, it can trigger instant light responses and voice warnings to deter an intruder before they ever reach your door. 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 have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti, our Intelligence Hub can often transform them from 'dumb' recording devices into high-intelligence sensors. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. We focus on wired connections over wireless because they are immune to the Wi-Fi jamming techniques often used by modern burglars. By integrating your existing cameras into the scOS ecosystem, you gain access to MotionX detection, presence simulation, and the scOS Director conversational AI without needing a complete hardware overhaul.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making the house appear occupied to anyone watching from the street. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies a person the moment they cross your property boundary—no 'tripwires' or 'zones' required. Finally, we use Active Intervention. If a threat is detected, the system triggers an escalating response. This starts with automatic lighting and can progress to clear warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. Unlike a standard alarm that rings after a break-in, scOS creates a hostile environment for criminals before they even attempt entry.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many global security brands, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for immediate response, with critical events escalated to our secure UK-based cloud servers. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. Because we use local processing for the heavy lifting, your system remains fast and secure, ensuring that your private home life stays exactly that—private.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a slow PIR sensor. By then, it's often too late. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, not just the front step. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS is designed to stop the thief from entering your driveway in the first place. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and covered face detection, scOS provides a level of professional-grade security that a consumer-grade doorbell simply cannot match. It’s a comprehensive security solution versus a single-point notification tool.

Bontnewydd is a very safe village, but the new A487 bypass has changed the flow of traffic in the area. scOS is designed to maintain the peace of your home by providing a proactive deterrent. Our MotionX technology detects any unusual activity at your boundary instantly, and our escalating response, including voice deterrents, ensures that your property remains a 'hard target' for anyone passing through the area.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to interact with your home security as if you were talking to a guard. For Bontnewydd residents, this means you can simply ask, 'Director, was there any unusual activity near the front gate today?' or 'Did any unrecognised vehicles enter the driveway?' It saves you from scrolling through hours of footage, giving you instant answers about your property's safety.

Yes. Many homes in Bontnewydd have larger gardens or multiple entry points. scOS uses Automatic Property Boundary Detection, which means the AI automatically understands where your land ends and the public path begins. You don't need to draw complex 'zones' on a screen; the system just knows. This ensures that your entire perimeter is protected without you having to be a technical expert.
