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.
Your phone buzzes constantly. A cat. Cobwebs. Headlights. After a while you stop checking, which defeats the entire point of having cameras.
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.
Message scOS for pre-edited clips across all cameras, or ask when the bin was last emptied. It's like having staff you can actually talk to.
No hidden fees. No premium tiers. All features included from day one.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in City and County of the City of London
Traditional CCTV is a passive witness that only records your loss; scOS is a proactive digital guard that prevents it. While standard systems rely on 'motion masks' that trigger for every passing cat or swaying branch, our MotionX technology focuses exclusively on 'important activity' like a person approaching your property. It requires no manual setup and delivers zero false alarms, allowing the system to trigger real-world interventions like lights and voice warnings the moment a genuine threat is detected.
Absolutely. scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to transform 'dumb' wired IP cameras into an intelligent security network. Whether you have Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, or Reolink cameras, our Intelligence Hub can usually integrate them into the scOS ecosystem. During your professional installation, our UK-based engineers will assess your existing hardware to ensure it meets the requirements for our AI-driven proactive protection.
scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First, 'Presence Simulation' makes your home appear occupied by mimicking natural human activity patterns inside, discouraging burglars from even trying. Second, our MotionX AI identifies intruders instantly, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Finally, the system initiates an escalating response: triggering instant illumination and delivering authoritative AI voice warnings through external IoT speakers to let the intruder know they have been spotted and the police are being notified.
Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub before being escalated to our secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and your footage is never sold or shared with third parties. You retain full control over your data, with 24/7 access to up to two weeks of recordings from anywhere in the world.
A video doorbell only tells you someone is at the door; scOS protects your entire property boundary. Doorbells are often easily bypassed or covered, but scOS uses AI to monitor your whole perimeter, detecting threats long before they reach your front door. While a doorbell records a package being stolen, scOS prevents the thief from even stepping onto your driveway through proactive voice and light interventions.
In the high-traffic environment of the City, traditional motion sensors are useless. Our MotionX AI is revolutionary because it ignores the thousands of passers-by and focuses only on 'important activity'—like someone loitering by your entrance or attempting to conceal their face. This ensures you only get alerted when it actually matters.
scOS Director allows you to talk to your home like a security guard. You can ask, 'Was there any suspicious activity near the service entrance today?' or 'Did any delivery drivers arrive while I was out?' It provides instant, conversational answers, saving you from scrolling through hours of urban footage.
Yes. scOS features 'Covered Face Detection' specifically designed to flag individuals wearing balaclavas, hoods, or masks in suspicious contexts. In an area with high property crime like the Square Mile, this early warning can be the difference between a successful intervention and a completed crime.
scOS uses wired connections (PoE) which are significantly more secure than the wireless systems often found in city apartments. Wireless signals can be easily jammed by criminals using 'deauth' tools; scOS remains online and vigilant regardless of signal interference.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
