Traditional CCTV is a passive recording device; it captures a crime but does nothing to prevent it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. Most cameras rely on 'motion masks' that trigger for every bird or gust of wind, but scOS uses MotionX technology. This AI focuses only on 'important activity,' ignoring the environment while instantly recognising human presence, even if they are trying to conceal their figure. Crucially, scOS intervenes. It automatically detects your property boundaries and uses lights and voice warnings to stop intruders before they can break in. It’s like having a digital security guard that never sleeps.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and compatible with most professional wired IP cameras, such as those from Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you have an existing system, our Intelligence Hub can often take over your cameras, instantly upgrading them with our advanced AI. During our professional UK installation, which takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup. We always recommend wired over wireless connections because they are immune to the signal jamming often used by modern burglars, ensuring your security remains robust and reliable.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your internal activity patterns and mimics them when you're away, making your home look occupied. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies intruders at your property boundary, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Third is Active Intervention: the system uses external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and triggers automatic light responses. These are escalating AI-driven responses that make it clear to any intruder that they have been spotted and that the system is actively defending the property.

Privacy is central to scOS. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in UK-based data centres. Your Intelligence Hub processes data locally for immediate action, and any data sent to the cloud is protected by strict UK privacy laws and is fully GDPR compliant. We never sell or share your data with third parties. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and can be accessed securely through our app, giving you peace of mind that your data is safe.

A video doorbell is reactive; it only tells you someone is at your door, often when it's too late. scOS is a proactive, whole-property system. It monitors your entire boundary, not just the front door, and uses AI to stop intruders before they ever get close. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and scOS Director—which lets you ask natural questions about your property—scOS provides a comprehensive security solution that a doorbell simply can't match. For the larger properties often found in Bunbury, whole-home protection is a necessity.

Bunbury is a beautiful, low-crime village, but this can make it a target for professional thieves who expect residents to be less vigilant. High-value homes and vehicles in Cheshire are often scouted by criminals. scOS is designed to maintain your peace of mind by providing a 'digital fence' around your property. Our MotionX AI is always on guard, spotting suspicious activity and intervening before it becomes a problem, ensuring that Bunbury remains the safe, peaceful place you love.

Many Bunbury residents live in historic or listed buildings where aesthetics are important. scOS is designed to be as discreet as possible. Our professional installation team is experienced in working with high-end properties, ensuring that cameras and IoT speakers are placed effectively but unobtrusively. Because scOS can work with a wide range of camera brands, we can often select hardware that blends in with your home's architecture while still providing world-class AI protection.

Absolutely. scOS is perfect for those who travel frequently. Our Presence Simulation feature is much more advanced than a simple light timer; it mimics your actual habits to make your home look genuinely lived-in. You can also use the scOS Director feature to check on your home from anywhere in the world. Just ask, 'Has anyone been on the driveway today?' and the AI will give you an instant update. It’s like having a trusted neighbour watching over your home 24/7.
