scOS is a proactive security system, while traditional CCTV is reactive. Most CCTV systems just record footage of a crime that has already happened. scOS uses MotionX AI to detect 'important activity' in real-time, ignoring false alarms like animals or wind. It doesn't just watch; it acts. Using automatic boundary detection, scOS identifies intruders the moment they step onto your land and uses escalating responses—like lights and voice warnings from external speakers—to deter them. It’s like having a digital security guard for your Churchstoke home that stops crime before it even starts, rather than just providing a video of it later.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, such as those from Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation (which takes 4-6 hours), we'll integrate your existing cameras with our Intelligence Hub. This hub adds advanced AI capabilities to your current setup, including person recognition and proactive deterrents. We recommend wired systems over wireless ones because they are more reliable and cannot be jammed. This allows you to upgrade your Churchstoke property to the latest AI security without needing to replace all your existing hardware.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation AI learns your home's activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making your house look occupied. Second, MotionX detection identifies human threats the moment they cross your property boundary, even if they are trying to hide their identity. Third, Active Intervention triggers lights and authoritative voice warnings through external IoT speakers if a threat is detected. This escalating response is designed to stop intruders at the boundary, making it clear your home is protected and preventing a break-in before it happens.

Your privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We never sell your data to third parties. The system uses local processing via our Intelligence Hub for immediate AI analysis, with cloud escalation for secure storage and remote access. You have 24/7 access to your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks. This ensures your Churchstoke home's security data is handled with the highest level of legal and technical protection available in the UK.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only covers your front door and often alerts you too late. scOS is a whole-property intelligence system. It uses AI to monitor your entire boundary and identifies suspicious behaviour long before someone reaches your door. Doorbells are also often wireless and easy to jam. scOS uses professional wired installations and active deterrents like voice warnings to stop criminals before they can even attempt a break-in. It’s a comprehensive security solution that protects your entire Churchstoke property, not just the entrance.

In rural areas like Churchstoke, police response times can be longer than in urban centres. This makes a proactive system like scOS even more vital. By detecting and deterring intruders at your property boundary using voice warnings and lights, scOS acts as an immediate first line of defence. It doesn't just wait for the police; it actively works to drive the intruder away. This self-sufficient security gives you peace of mind that your home is protected even when help is further away.

Churchstoke residents often have outbuildings or farm equipment that are high-value targets. scOS uses Automatic Property Boundary Detection to protect your entire plot. You don't need to set up complex zones; the AI understands where your land ends. If someone approaches an outbuilding or enters your yard, the system can trigger a voice deterrent specifically from an IoT speaker near that location. This ensures your tools, vehicles, and equipment are protected 24/7 with the same level of intelligence as your main home.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. You can ask questions like, 'Was there any unusual activity near the barn today?' or 'What time did the delivery driver arrive?' It’s like talking to a security guard who has been watching your property 24/7. This makes managing your home security simple and intuitive, providing you with instant information about your Churchstoke property whenever you need it.
