Traditional CCTV is a passive system that records crime but does nothing to prevent it. scOS is an active AI system powered by MotionX technology. It understands the difference between a cat and a person, ignoring false alarms and focusing only on 'important activity.' Unlike old systems, scOS doesn't need you to set up complex 'zones'; it automatically detects your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop intruders before they reach your home. It’s proactive protection, not just a recording.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional installation in Cottingham, our engineers will assess your current cameras and connect them to our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing 'dumb' cameras into a smart, AI-powered security network, giving you advanced protection without the need for a full, expensive hardware replacement.

scOS uses three layers of deterrence. First, Presence Simulation mimics your internal activity patterns when you're away, making your home look occupied. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders even if they are disguised or trying to hide. Third, Active Intervention uses external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and triggers automatic lighting. For residents in Cottingham, this 'lived-in' look combined with active AI intervention is the most effective way to stop burglars before they can break in.

Privacy is a core value at scOS. We are 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. The system uses a hybrid of local processing (on your Intelligence Hub) and cloud processing for escalation. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to 14 days and accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell is reactive and only covers a small area near your door. scOS is a proactive, whole-property system. It monitors your entire boundary and intervenes before an intruder gets close to your home. In Cottingham, where homes often have gardens and side access, a doorbell isn't enough. scOS provides comprehensive coverage and active deterrents that a doorbell simply cannot offer.

Cottingham's quiet residential streets can sometimes be targets for opportunistic vehicle theft. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs every vehicle that enters your property and checks registrations against the DVLA database. It can identify suspicious vehicles and alert you immediately. This proactive monitoring, combined with voice warnings for unauthorised visitors, makes scOS an ideal solution for protecting your cars on your driveway.

scOS is designed to be user-friendly. Our 'scOS Director' is a conversational AI that lets you interact with your security system using natural language. Instead of hunting through hours of footage, you can just ask, 'What happened in the garden this afternoon?' and get an instant summary. It’s intuitive, fast, and requires no technical expertise to manage your home's security.

Our professional UK-based team performs the installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours. We use wired connections to ensure maximum reliability and to prevent the system from being jammed by Wi-Fi blockers. We'll integrate your cameras, set up the Intelligence Hub, and calibrate the AI to your property's specific layout. You'll have a professional-grade, AI-powered security system ready to go by the time we leave.
