Every time you leave home, there's that nagging worry. Did I lock up properly? Is someone watching the house? You shouldn't have to feel anxious about your own home.
Something happened in the garden last night. Now you're scrubbing through 8 hours of footage trying to find 30 seconds of activity. Life's too short for this.

Not motion. Not shadows. scOS detects the kind of activity a trained security guard would notice. When your phone buzzes, it matters.
Family, friends, the builder—scOS learns who belongs. No repetitive alerts for familiar faces. Only strangers trigger attention.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Byram
Traditional CCTV is a passive system; it records footage that you might use after a crime has been committed. scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to stop crime in its tracks. The core of our technology is MotionX, which ignores common false alarms like animals or wind and focuses exclusively on 'important activity'. It recognises people and vehicles with incredible accuracy, even if someone is trying to hide their face. When scOS detects a threat on your Byram property, it doesn't just record—it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to drive the intruder away before they can cause any damage. It’s like having a 24/7 security guard for your home.
Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If your Byram home already has a wired system, we can usually integrate our Intelligence Hub to 'brain-train' your existing cameras. This transforms your current setup into a proactive AI system without the need for a full, disruptive replacement. Our UK-based engineers will perform a full assessment during the 4-6 hour installation process to ensure your existing hardware can support our advanced AI features like person recognition and automated deterrents.
scOS uses a powerful three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your daily habits—like turning lights on and off—to make your home look occupied even when you're away. Second is our MotionX AI, which detects intruders the moment they step onto your property, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Third is Active Intervention: the system triggers instant lighting and delivers authoritative voice warnings through external IoT speakers. These warnings escalate if the intruder stays, creating a hostile environment for criminals and forcing them to leave before they can reach your home.
Your privacy is our priority. All scOS data is processed and stored right here in the UK in our secure data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data to third parties. The system uses a hybrid approach: local processing on your Intelligence Hub for instant action, and cloud processing for secure storage and remote access. You have total control over your data, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks. Because we are a 100% UK-based company, you can rest assured that your security data is protected by the highest standards of British privacy law.
A video doorbell only monitors your front door and usually only alerts you when someone is already there. For homes in Byram, where crime rates are higher than the national average, this isn't enough. scOS provides comprehensive property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary including side gates, gardens, and driveways. Unlike a doorbell, which is reactive, scOS is proactive. It uses AI to detect suspicious behaviour anywhere on your property and intervenes with lights and voice deterrents to stop a crime before it even reaches your front door. It’s a complete security solution, not just a digital peephole.
Byram’s proximity to the A1 and M62 makes it a target for criminals who use the motorways for quick access and escape. scOS features integrated DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs the registration plates of every vehicle that enters your property. It can identify cloned plates or vehicles flagged in the DVLA database. If an unfamiliar vehicle enters your driveway, scOS can alert you immediately. This data is also invaluable for North Yorkshire Police, providing them with high-quality, actionable evidence that can help identify and track suspects who may be using the motorway network to target local homes.
With a local crime rate higher than the national average, Byram residents need a system that is both vigilant and effective. scOS is designed for high-risk areas, using its escalating response system to provide a powerful deterrent. The system's ability to recognise people even when they are covering their faces is a crucial feature for deterring more determined criminals. By providing a proactive shield that intervenes at the first sign of a threat, scOS offers a level of protection that goes far beyond traditional CCTV, helping to make your home a much less attractive target.
In North Yorkshire, police resources are often spread thin. scOS is designed to be your first line of defence, capable of resolving threats independently through its escalating response system. By using lights and voice deterrents, the system often scares off intruders before they can commit a crime. If a serious incident does occur, scOS provides North Yorkshire Police with high-fidelity evidence, including person recognition and vehicle details. Because our AI eliminates false alarms, you can contact the police with absolute certainty, providing them with the precise information they need to respond effectively and increase the chances of a successful investigation.
