Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records crime but does nothing to stop it. scOS transforms your security into a proactive 'digital guard' using our proprietary MotionX technology. Unlike standard systems that trigger alerts for every swaying branch or passing cat, MotionX ignores environmental noise like spiders, cobwebs, and wind, focusing exclusively on 'important activity.' It recognises human forms regardless of how they move or if they attempt to conceal their figure. Because scOS understands what it's seeing, it can trigger automatic interventions—like activating external lights or voice warnings—the moment a boundary is breached. You move from having a digital witness to having a system that actively prevents an incident from escalating, all without the frustration of false alarms or the need to draw complex motion masks.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic and works seamlessly with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure compatibility. By connecting your existing 'dumb' cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we can upgrade them with AI capabilities like MotionX detection and DVLA vehicle recognition. This allows you to benefit from state-of-the-art proactive protection without the expense of replacing your entire camera network. We prefer wired connections over wireless to ensure your security cannot be compromised by WiFi jamming, providing a robust, professional-grade foundation for your home's intelligence.

scOS employs a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy designed to stop criminals before they even reach your door. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your home's normal activity patterns and mimics them when you're away, making the property appear occupied. If a prowler is undeterred, our MotionX technology takes over, identifying 'important activity' and recognising human presence even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Once a threat is confirmed, the system initiates Active Intervention: instant illumination from external lights and escalating voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. This proactive approach ensures that an intruder is identified, challenged, and deterred long before they can attempt a break-in, providing a level of security that passive cameras simply cannot match.

At scOS, we take a 'privacy by design' approach. Your data is processed using a hybrid model: our Intelligence Hub handles initial detection locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK-based cloud for complex analysis and remote access. We are 100% UK-based, meaning all our data centres, support staff, and operations are governed by strict UK GDPR regulations. Your footage and data belong to you; we never sell user data to third parties. You have full control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible anywhere via our secure app. By keeping the intelligence local and the storage in highly secure UK facilities, we ensure your home's privacy is never compromised.

While a video doorbell is a useful tool for seeing who is at the front door, it is fundamentally a reactive device with a limited field of view. scOS provides whole-property intelligence that monitors every boundary, not just the porch. While a doorbell might alert you that someone is already stealing a parcel, scOS is designed to stop the crime from happening in the first place. Our system uses AI to detect suspicious behaviour across your entire perimeter, triggering deterrents like lights and voice warnings before a criminal even reaches your home. Furthermore, scOS offers professional-grade features like DVLA vehicle recognition and conversational AI (scOS Director), providing a comprehensive security ecosystem that a standalone doorbell simply cannot provide.

Bradford-on-Avon is famous for its historic stone cottages and conservation areas, where bulky, modern security equipment can look out of place. scOS is brand agnostic, allowing us to work with a wide range of discreet, high-quality wired cameras that can be sensitively installed to blend in with your home's architecture. Because the 'intelligence' is handled by our Intelligence Hub, you don't need large, obvious cameras to get world-class protection. Our professional UK installers are experts at working with period properties, ensuring your home is protected by cutting-edge AI without compromising its unique character or aesthetic.

Bradford-on-Avon's picturesque streets and proximity to the canal can attract a lot of foot traffic, which can lead to false alarms with traditional security systems. scOS uses MotionX technology, which is designed to ignore 'noise' like passing pedestrians or wildlife, focusing only on 'important activity' that poses a threat to your property. It can distinguish between someone walking their dog on the pavement and someone stepping onto your driveway or into your garden. This precision ensures that you only receive alerts when it truly matters, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of Bradford-on-Avon without being constantly interrupted by your security system.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that makes managing your security as easy as having a conversation. If you're out for a walk along the Kennet & Avon Canal or away for the weekend, you can simply ask, 'Is everything secure at home?' or 'Who has been to the front door today?' The AI will provide a clear, written summary of all relevant activity, so you don't have to manually check camera feeds. It's an intelligent and intuitive way to stay in control of your home's security, providing instant clarity and peace of mind.
