Traditional CCTV is a passive system that merely records events for you to watch after the damage is done. scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent crime before it happens. The core of our technology is MotionX, a revolutionary AI that focuses on 'important activity' rather than just any movement. While standard cameras are often triggered by swaying trees, shadows, or animals, MotionX ignores these distractions and focuses exclusively on human behaviour. It doesn't require complex 'motion masks' because it automatically detects your property boundaries. When a threat is identified, scOS doesn't just record; it actively intervenes with escalating deterrents like lights and voice warnings, providing a level of security that passive systems simply cannot match.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and can be integrated with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK-based installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup and connect it to our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your 'dumb' cameras into a smart, proactive network powered by our MotionX AI. We recommend wired systems over wireless ones because they are immune to the WiFi jamming techniques often used by modern criminals. By upgrading your existing cameras with scOS, you gain advanced features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice responses without needing to replace all your hardware.

scOS uses a three-tiered strategy to deter criminals. First is Presence Simulation, where the AI learns your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making the house appear occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies human threats the moment they step onto your property, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Third is Active Intervention. When a person is detected in a sensitive area, the system triggers automatic light responses. If they persist, external IoT speakers deliver AI-generated voice warnings. This escalating response makes it clear to any intruder that they are being monitored by an intelligent system that is actively responding to their presence, which is usually enough to make them flee immediately.

Privacy and security are our top priorities. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, with all support and data centres located within the UK. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for immediate response and then securely backed up to our GDPR-compliant cloud servers. We never sell or share your data with third parties. You have complete control over your footage, which you can access 24/7 from anywhere in the world via our secure app. We store up to two weeks of recording, ensuring you have a full history of activity on your property while keeping your personal data protected by the highest UK standards.

A video doorbell only protects your front door and is often reactive, alerting you only when someone is already there. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary, including gardens, driveways, and side entrances. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS uses MotionX AI to detect a thief as soon as they enter your property, triggering lights and voice warnings to stop them before they reach your door. Furthermore, scOS is a professionally installed, wired system, making it far more reliable than battery-powered doorbells that can be easily bypassed or suffer from signal interference.

Burry Port's coastal location means your security system must withstand salt air and harsh weather. Traditional CCTV often suffers from false alarms caused by heavy rain or sea mist. scOS's MotionX AI is specifically designed to ignore environmental factors like rain, wind, and mist, focusing purely on human shape and behaviour recognition. This ensures that even in the toughest Welsh coastal weather, your scOS system remains accurate and vigilant, only alerting you to genuine human threats while ignoring the elements, providing reliable protection for your seaside home.

For residents with second homes or those who travel frequently, scOS's Presence Simulation is an invaluable feature. The AI learns your normal household patterns—when lights go on, when there's movement in certain rooms—and replicates these patterns when the house is empty. This makes your property appear occupied to anyone scouting the area, which is the most effective way to deter burglars. Combined with our 24/7 remote monitoring via the scOS app, you can have total peace of mind that your Burry Port home is protected, no matter where you are in the world.

Absolutely. With the scOS Director, our conversational AI, you can check on your Burry Port home from anywhere. Whether you're at the harbour or away on holiday, you can simply ask, 'Has anyone been to the house today?' or 'Show me any activity near the garage.' The AI understands natural language and will provide a summary of events, distinguishing between family members and strangers. This allows you to stay informed about your property's security without needing to constantly check live video feeds, providing true peace of mind.
