Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records your property being burgled so you can watch the footage later. scOS is an active participant in your home's security. At its core is MotionX, a revolutionary AI that focuses on 'important activity' rather than just pixels moving on a screen. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks to avoid false alarms from wind or pets, MotionX works out of the box. It ignores environmental noise and focuses exclusively on human behaviour. When it detects a threat, it doesn't just send a notification; it initiates a proactive response to deter the intruder before they ever touch your door. It’s the difference between a witness and a digital security guard.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand agnostic, meaning it can transform 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent security network. We work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation—which typically takes between 4 and 6 hours—our engineers will assess your existing hardware. If your cameras are compatible, we simply connect them to our scOS Intelligence Hub. This hub processes the video locally before escalating critical data to our UK-based cloud for advanced AI analysis. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI protection without the cost of replacing every camera on your property.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, our primary passive deterrent. It learns your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them when you're away—turning lights on and off in a natural sequence to make the home appear occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour, even if the person is wearing a mask or trying to hide their shape. Finally, if a threat is confirmed, the system triggers an Active Intervention. This isn't just a loud siren; it’s an escalating response. It starts with automatic light illumination and moves to voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. These AI-generated warnings inform the intruder they have been detected, often stopping a crime in its tracks.

Privacy is a cornerstone of the scOS philosophy. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and, when necessary, escalated to our secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your video footage and personal information remain your property. We never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app. By keeping everything within the UK—from our support teams to our servers—we provide a level of data sovereignty and security that international brands simply cannot match.

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 sensor. scOS is a proactive, whole-property intelligence system. While a doorbell covers a few square metres, scOS uses automatic property boundary detection to monitor your entire perimeter. It identifies threats the moment they step onto your land, not just when they reach the entrance. Furthermore, doorbells are often wireless and prone to signal jamming; scOS prefers wired connections for reliability. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and covered face detection, scOS provides a comprehensive shield that stops crime before it happens, rather than just giving you a video of the person who took your parcel.

Brewood’s proximity to the M6 and M54 makes it a target for criminals who use the motorway network for quick escapes. scOS is designed to counter this by providing immediate, proactive deterrence. Our DVLA vehicle recognition can flag suspicious cars the moment they enter your driveway, and our MotionX AI detects intruders instantly. By using voice warnings and automatic lighting, scOS makes it clear to criminals that they have been spotted and identified, usually causing them to flee before they even attempt to enter the building. This speed of response is critical for properties near major transport links.

We understand that many homes in Brewood are historic or even listed. Our professional installation team is highly experienced in working with sensitive properties. We use discreet, high-quality wired connections that provide maximum reliability without being visually intrusive. The scOS Intelligence Hub is compact and can be tucked away, and our IoT speakers are designed to blend into their surroundings. During your installation, we will work with you to ensure the system is as unobtrusive as possible while still providing world-class AI protection.

Yes, scOS is highly effective at protecting the detached garages and outbuildings common in South Staffordshire. Our system uses automatic property boundary detection to create a protective shield around your entire land. If someone approaches a detached building, the system can trigger a specific response, such as illuminating the area and delivering a voice warning from a nearby IoT speaker. This ensures that your tools, equipment, and vehicles are just as well-protected as your main residence.
