Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records your home being burgled so you can watch the footage later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system powered by MotionX technology. Unlike standard motion sensors that trigger for every passing cat or swaying branch in the Pembrokeshire wind, MotionX ignores the 'noise' and focuses exclusively on important activity. It requires no manual 'tripwires' or 'zones' because the AI automatically understands your property boundaries from the moment it's installed. When an actual threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record—it intervenes with automated voice deterrents and lighting responses, stopping crime before it reaches your front door. It’s the difference between a witness and a security guard.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-level intelligence network. We work with almost all professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK-based installation process, which typically takes just 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup. We connect your cameras to our local Intelligence Hub, which handles the heavy lifting of AI processing before escalating critical data to our secure UK cloud. This allows you to upgrade your security without the cost of replacing perfectly good hardware.

scOS uses a three-layered proactive approach to keep your home safe. The first layer is Presence Simulation; the system learns your normal activity patterns and mimics them when you're away—turning lights on and off in a natural sequence to make the house look occupied. The second layer is MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour or covered faces regardless of how a person moves. Finally, if a persistent threat is detected, the system triggers an Active Intervention. This isn't just a siren; it's an escalating response where external IoT speakers deliver clear AI voice warnings and lights illuminate the area. This combination makes your property an unattractive and 'hard' target for any opportunist.

Privacy is at the core of scOS. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and only escalated to our secure UK-based data centres when necessary. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell or share your personal information or footage with third parties. You have total control over your data through the scOS app, and our 24/7 recording ensures you have up to two weeks of footage stored securely and accessible only by you, from anywhere in the world. Your home’s intelligence stays within your control.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a slow PIR sensor. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. While a doorbell covers a few square metres, scOS monitors your entire boundary, from the driveway to the back fence. More importantly, scOS is designed to stop crime before it happens. While a doorbell might capture a package thief's face, scOS uses DVLA vehicle recognition to spot suspicious cars and voice deterrents to warn off intruders before they even touch your property. It’s a comprehensive security ecosystem, not just a digital peephole.

Clunderwen is a safe village, but its role as a local transport hub with the railway station means there is more footfall and vehicle movement than in more isolated hamlets. scOS is perfect for this environment because our MotionX technology is designed to ignore 'normal' activity—like people walking to the station—while instantly flagging 'anomalous' behaviour, such as someone lingering near your property or looking into windows. It allows you to maintain the village's low crime rate by being proactive rather than reactive.

Yes, scOS is a 100% UK-based company. All our data centres, support staff, and professional installers are based in the UK. This ensures that we are fully compliant with UK privacy laws and that our Welsh customers receive the highest level of service. While the AI interface is currently in English, our UK-based support team is always on hand to help Clunderwen residents with any questions they may have about their system.

scOS uses a hybrid approach. Your Intelligence Hub processes the AI locally at your home in Clunderwen, which ensures lightning-fast response times for deterrents like lights and voice warnings. If a significant event is detected, the system escalates the data to our secure UK cloud for storage and remote access. This 'local + cloud' model gives you the best of both worlds: the speed and privacy of local processing with the reliability and accessibility of the cloud.
