Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records what happens but does nothing to stop it. In a historic village like Coggeshall, you need a system that acts. scOS uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity'—specifically human threats—while ignoring false alarms like pets or wind. It doesn't require complex setup or motion zones; the AI automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with lights and voice warnings to drive the intruder away. It’s an active security presence that works to prevent crime, rather than just filming it.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and can work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, such as Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink. If you already have a camera system at your Coggeshall property, we can often integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This upgrades your existing cameras with our advanced AI, including MotionX detection and presence simulation. During our professional installation, our UK-based engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure it's compatible. This allows you to get world-class security intelligence without the cost of a completely new camera setup, making it a smart and efficient upgrade.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy to keep your property safe. First is 'Presence Simulation,' which uses AI to mimic human activity inside your home when you're away, making it look occupied and deterring burglars from even considering it. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour at your boundary, even if the person is trying to hide. Third is 'Active Intervention'—if an intruder persists, scOS triggers external IoT speakers to deliver authoritative voice warnings and activates bright lights. This escalating response is designed to stop a criminal in their tracks and force them to retreat before they can cause any damage.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in full compliance with GDPR. We never sell your data or allow third-party access for marketing. Your Intelligence Hub processes data locally for maximum speed and privacy, only using the cloud for secure storage and advanced AI processing. You have full control over your footage through the scOS app, with 24/7 recording history available for up to two weeks, ensuring your home's security data remains private and accessible only to you.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only monitors your front door. In Coggeshall, where properties often have side access or large gardens, a doorbell leaves many blind spots. Doorbell cameras are also prone to battery failure or WiFi jamming. scOS is a professional, hardwired system that monitors your entire property boundary. It detects threats long before they reach your door and uses proactive deterrents like voice warnings to stop them. It’s a comprehensive security ecosystem that provides far more protection than a simple doorbell camera ever could.

Coggeshall's low property crime rate is excellent, but it can lead to complacency. Historic villages are often targeted by professional thieves who know that security might be more relaxed. Essex Police have a large area to cover, and response times to rural villages can be longer. scOS acts as your immediate line of defence, providing an automated, proactive response that can deter a criminal in seconds. It ensures that even in a quiet area, your home remains a 'hard target' that is actively defended 24/7.

We understand that Coggeshall has many beautiful historic properties. Our professional UK-based installers are experienced in working with older buildings and will ensure that the installation is as discreet as possible. We use wired connections for maximum reliability, but we take great care to hide cables and place cameras and speakers in positions that provide optimal coverage without detracting from your home's character. During the initial assessment, we will discuss the best placement for all components to ensure your home is both secure and aesthetically pleasing.

scOS is designed to be incredibly easy to use. You don't need to be a tech expert to manage your home's security. Our conversational AI, scOS Director, allows you to ask questions in plain English, such as 'Was there any activity in the garden last night?' or 'What time did the delivery arrive?' and get an immediate response. There are no complex settings or 'zones' to configure; the AI handles everything automatically. Our professional UK-based team will handle the entire installation and show you exactly how to use the app, ensuring you feel confident and in control.
