Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that stops crime before it happens. At its core is MotionX, our revolutionary activity detection technology. Unlike standard systems that rely on motion masks and frequently trigger false alarms from spiders, wind, or shadows, MotionX focuses only on 'important activity.' It recognises people regardless of how they move or if they try to hide their shape. Because it understands the difference between a fox and a prowler, it can trigger automatic interventions—like lighting and voice warnings—without you ever having to lift a finger. It transforms your security from a simple recording device into a 24/7 digital security guard that never sleeps.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand agnostic, meaning it can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a truly intelligent network. We work with most professional wired IP cameras, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we can apply our MotionX AI and proactive deterrents to your current setup. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI home intelligence without the cost of replacing every camera on your property, provided they meet the necessary technical standards for a wired connection.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. The first layer is Presence Simulation; while you're away, the system simulates human activity patterns inside your home to make it appear occupied, deterring burglars from even considering your property. The second layer is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour at your boundary—even if the intruder is wearing a mask or moving stealthily. The final layer is Active Intervention. When a genuine threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record; it reacts. It instantly illuminates the area with automatic light responses and delivers escalating voice warnings through external IoT speakers. This immediate, AI-driven response signals to the criminal that they have been spotted and that the property is actively defended, usually causing them to flee immediately.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many global security brands, scOS is 100% UK-based. This means your data is stored in secure UK data centres and is fully GDPR compliant. We use a hybrid processing model: our Intelligence Hub handles the primary AI analysis locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced processing or remote access. You retain full control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. We never sell your data to third parties. With scOS, you get the power of advanced AI intelligence with the peace of mind that your private life stays private and protected by UK law.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or stolen a parcel. scOS is a comprehensive home intelligence system that protects your entire property boundary. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your gardens, driveways, and side access points. More importantly, scOS is proactive. It doesn't just show you a crime in progress; it uses AI to detect threats and intervene before they reach your door. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, scOS provides a ring of steel around your home that a simple doorbell camera simply cannot match. It’s the difference between a doorbell and a dedicated security team.

Cotton End is a popular choice for families and commuters using the A600 into Bedford. When you're away during the day, scOS's Presence Simulation is your most powerful tool. It doesn't just turn a light on; it uses AI to mimic the natural patterns of a busy home—turning lights on and off in different rooms and even simulating internal activity. This makes your home look occupied to any opportunist scouting the village. Combined with our MotionX technology, which ignores the 'noise' of village life like passing cars or swaying trees, scOS ensures that your home is only ever alerted to genuine threats, giving you total peace of mind while you're at work.

With several new housing developments in and around Cotton End, modern homes often have specific security needs. scOS is ideal for new builds because our professional UK installers can often utilise existing cabling or discreetly install our wired system in a single day (4-6 hours). Unlike wireless DIY systems that can be easily jammed or suffer from poor signal in well-insulated modern homes, our wired scOS system is 'un-jammable' and provides a rock-solid connection. We can also integrate with your existing smart home features, ensuring your new property has the most advanced AI protection available from day one.

Bedfordshire Police are increasingly reliant on high-quality digital evidence. scOS provides 24/7 recording with up to two weeks of storage, all kept in secure UK data centres. However, the real benefit is our AI's ability to categorise activity. If a crime occurs nearby, you can use 'scOS Director' to quickly find relevant footage—such as 'Show me all vehicles that parked outside between 2 PM and 4 PM.' This saves you from hours of manual searching and provides the police with clear, timestamped evidence that includes vehicle registrations verified against the DVLA database, making it much easier for them to take action.
