Traditional CCTV is a passive recording device that only helps after a crime has been committed. scOS is an active intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity' in real-time. Unlike standard motion detection that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, MotionX is trained to recognise human behaviour and figures, even if they are trying to hide. This allows the system to ignore false alarms and focus on genuine threats. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with lights and voice deterrents to stop the intruder in their tracks.

scOS is highly flexible and works with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including those from Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. If you already have a system installed at your Cricklade property, our engineers can usually integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This 'upcycles' your existing hardware, giving it the power of scOS AI, Presence Simulation, and proactive deterrents. During our professional installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, we will verify your cameras' compatibility and ensure the entire system is optimised for your specific property layout.

Our deterrent strategy is three-fold. First, Presence Simulation makes your home look lived-in by mimicking your internal lighting and activity patterns—essential for Cricklade residents who may be away for the weekend. Second, our MotionX AI monitors your boundaries with incredible precision, spotting intruders the moment they step onto your land. Third, the system uses Active Intervention, triggering external lights and authoritative voice warnings from IoT speakers. This immediate response signals to any criminal that they have been detected by an intelligent system, making your home a much harder target than those with simple, passive cameras.

We prioritise your privacy by keeping everything within the UK. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and, when necessary, backed up to secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data to third parties. You have complete ownership and 24/7 access to your footage through our secure app. In a town like Cricklade, where privacy is highly valued, scOS offers the perfect balance of high-tech security and strict data confidentiality.

A video doorbell is a 'point-of-entry' device that only alerts you when someone is already at your door. scOS provides 'perimeter-to-perimeter' protection. It monitors your entire property, including gardens and side entrances, and uses AI to intervene before an intruder even reaches your house. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from ever stepping onto your driveway. Additionally, our wired installation is immune to the WiFi jamming techniques that tech-savvy criminals often use against wireless doorbells.

While Cricklade enjoys a crime rate significantly lower than the national average, its affluent nature and rural edge can make it a target for high-value thefts. Criminals often target areas where they believe residents have become complacent. scOS ensures you stay protected without having to worry about it. Our AI doesn't get tired or complacent; it provides the same high level of vigilance every single night, ensuring that your home remains the safe haven it should be, regardless of local crime trends.

scOS is perfect for the larger, detached properties often found in and around Cricklade. Our AI automatically detects your property boundaries, so there's no need for complex manual setup. Whether you have a large garden, a gravel driveway, or multiple outbuildings, scOS can be configured to monitor the entire area. The system's ability to distinguish between a fox in the garden and a person lurking near a shed is particularly useful in more rural settings, ensuring you only get alerted when it truly matters.

Yes, scOS features scOS Director, a conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. You can ask questions like, 'Was there anyone in the garden last night?' or 'When did the delivery driver arrive?' and get instant, accurate answers. This makes managing your home security as easy as having a conversation, removing the need to scrub through hours of footage to find a specific event. It’s like having a digital estate manager for your Cricklade home.
