Traditional CCTV is a passive system that merely records events as they happen, often providing poor-quality evidence after the fact. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity'—specifically human threats—in real-time. Unlike standard systems that rely on 'motion masks' which are often triggered by wind or animals, MotionX ensures zero false alarms. When scOS detects a threat, it actively intervenes with external lights and voice deterrents to stop intruders before they reach your home. It transforms your security from a simple recording device into an active digital guard for your Craghead property.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most wired IP cameras, including those from Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current cameras and integrate them with our Intelligence Hub. This process transforms your existing 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent, proactive system. You’ll gain access to all our advanced AI features, including MotionX and scOS Director, without needing to replace your existing hardware, making it a smart and cost-effective upgrade for your Craghead home.

scOS uses a three-layered deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your daily activity patterns to make your home look occupied even when you're away. Second is our MotionX AI, which detects suspicious human behaviour with incredible accuracy, ignoring pets and environmental noise. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is confirmed, the system triggers instant external lighting and escalating voice warnings from IoT speakers. This immediate, vocal response makes intruders feel exposed and watched, which is the most effective way to make them flee before any damage is done to your property.

Your privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in full compliance with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub handles most of the AI processing locally on your property. Data is only sent to our secure UK cloud for advanced analysis or when you need remote access. You have complete control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. We never sell your data, ensuring your home life in Craghead remains private.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only monitors your front door and often triggers too late. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, using AI to automatically detect your entire property boundary. It doesn't just show you who is there; it proactively stops crime. While doorbells are prone to false alerts and can be easily ignored, scOS uses MotionX to ensure zero false alarms and features active deterrents like voice warnings and presence simulation. For a home in Craghead, scOS offers a much more robust and comprehensive security shield than a simple doorbell.

Craghead has a strong community, but it's important to remain vigilant against opportunistic crime. scOS is designed to provide peace of mind by working silently in the background. Its MotionX AI is perfect for Craghead because it ignores local wildlife and swaying trees, only alerting you if there is a genuine human threat. By having a proactive system, you ensure that your home remains a safe haven, even in a low-crime area.

Yes, scOS is excellent for protecting vehicles. Our DVLA vehicle recognition feature can check registrations against the DVLA database, helping to identify suspicious or cloned plates. If an unknown vehicle enters your property, the system can alert you immediately. This is a key advantage for Craghead residents who want to protect their cars and vans from theft or vandalism.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that lets you interact with your security system using natural language. You can ask it questions like, 'Was there any unusual activity last night?' or 'Did the delivery arrive today?' It’s like having a security guard who has watched all your footage and can give you an instant summary. For busy residents in Craghead, this makes managing your home security incredibly simple and intuitive, allowing you to stay informed and in control whether you're at home or away.
