Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records the crime but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. While standard cameras rely on 'motion masks' that you have to manually draw—and which often fail when a spider crawls over the lens or the wind blows a tree—scOS uses MotionX. This revolutionary technology focuses only on 'important activity.' It ignores environmental noise like cobwebs or animals and instead recognises human patterns, even if someone is trying to hide their shape or crawl. Because it understands what it's seeing, it can trigger instant responses like lights and voice warnings before a break-in occurs. You aren't just getting a recording of a burglary; you're getting a system designed to prevent it from ever happening, all managed by our UK-based Intelligence Hub.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence security network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes between 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. If your cameras are compatible, we simply connect them to our scOS Intelligence Hub. This hub then applies our advanced AI, such as MotionX and DVLA vehicle recognition, to your existing feeds. It’s a cost-effective way to upgrade to world-class security without replacing every piece of hardware you already own, provided they are wired systems, as we prioritise wired connections over jammer-prone wireless setups.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your internal lighting and activity patterns to make your home look occupied even when you’re away from Boughton or on holiday. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies a person the moment they cross your property boundary—no 'tripwires' needed. Finally, if a threat is detected, the system initiates an Active Intervention. This isn't just a quiet notification on your phone; it’s an escalating response where external IoT speakers deliver AI-generated voice warnings and lights flash to signal the intruder has been spotted. By combining the appearance of someone being home with immediate, vocal recognition of an intruder's presence, scOS stops most crimes before a window is ever smashed.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. Unlike many competitors who ship data to overseas servers, your video and data are processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and then escalated to our secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your data remains yours and is never sold or accessed by third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible via our secure app from anywhere in the world. By keeping everything within the UK—from our support teams to our servers—we ensure the highest standards of data sovereignty and security, giving you peace of mind that your home's private moments stay private.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they’ve already pressed it or stolen a parcel. scOS is a proactive, whole-property intelligence system. While a doorbell only covers a tiny fraction of your home, scOS monitors your entire property boundary. It uses MotionX to detect suspicious behaviour anywhere on your land, not just the front porch. Furthermore, doorbells rarely deter a determined criminal; scOS actively intervenes with voice deterrents and light responses. While a doorbell provides a recording of a crime, scOS is designed to prevent the crime from happening in the first place. It’s the difference between a digital peephole and having a virtual security guard watching every corner of your Boughton home 24/7.

While Boughton enjoys a very low crime rate, this can often lead to complacency, making the village an attractive target for sophisticated burglars who look for 'soft' targets in affluent areas. scOS is designed to maintain that safety without you having to constantly worry. Our Presence Simulation ensures your home never looks like an easy target, even when you're away. By having a system that is always 'on guard' and capable of autonomous intervention, you ensure that your property remains the exception to the rule, protecting your investment and your family's peace of mind.

Boughton is home to many beautiful, historic properties. Our professional UK installation team is experienced in working with heritage homes, ensuring that the installation of our Intelligence Hub and any necessary wiring is discreet and respectful of your property's character. Because scOS can work with your existing cameras, we can often upgrade your security without the need for intrusive new hardware. Our goal is to provide 21st-century AI protection that blends seamlessly with the timeless aesthetic of your Boughton home.

Yes, scOS features Covered Face Detection, which is a critical tool for identifying suspicious activity. If someone approaches your property wearing a mask, balaclava, or even a deeply pulled-down hood, the MotionX AI flags this as an anomaly. The system can then initiate an immediate deterrent response, such as a voice warning through external IoT speakers, to let the individual know they have been spotted. This is a powerful way to stop potential criminals who believe they can hide their identity from traditional CCTV systems.
