scOS is a proactive intelligence system, whereas traditional CCTV is a passive recording tool. Most systems in Crockenhill rely on basic motion detection, which leads to constant false alarms from wind or local wildlife. scOS uses MotionX, a revolutionary technology that ignores these distractions and focuses only on 'important activity'—specifically human threats. It automatically detects your property boundaries without needing manual 'zones.' Most importantly, scOS intervenes. Instead of just filming a break-in, our Intelligence Hub uses external IoT speakers and lights to warn intruders away the moment they cross your boundary, stopping the crime before it can escalate.

Yes, scOS is brand agnostic and can work with most existing wired IP camera systems. If your Crockenhill property already has cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink, we can likely integrate them. During our professional installation—which usually takes about 4 to 6 hours—our UK-based engineers will connect your existing cameras to our scOS Intelligence Hub. This hub provides the AI 'brain' that your current cameras lack, enabling features like MotionX detection, person recognition, and automated voice deterrents without requiring you to buy an entirely new set of cameras.

We use a three-tiered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the AI learns your daily habits and replicates them by controlling internal lights and activity, making your home look occupied even when you're away. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies people instantly, even if they are trying to hide their faces or change their silhouette. Third is Active Intervention: if someone enters your property uninvited, scOS triggers external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and switches on powerful lights. This escalating response shows the intruder they are being monitored by an intelligent system, which is a far more powerful deterrent than a standard alarm.

Your data security is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your footage and information belong to you and are never sold to third parties. The system uses a 'Local + Cloud' approach: the scOS Intelligence Hub processes video locally for instant response, only escalating to the cloud for secure storage and remote access. You can view your 24/7 recordings from anywhere and interact with the scOS Director to ask questions about your home's security, all within a secure, encrypted environment.

A video doorbell only covers your front door and usually only alerts you once someone is already there. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, from the driveway to the back garden, and uses MotionX to detect threats before they reach your house. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from even stepping onto your land through proactive voice warnings and lights. Additionally, scOS uses reliable wired connections, making it much harder for criminals to 'jam' compared to standard wireless doorbells.

Crockenhill’s proximity to the M25 and Swanley makes it an attractive target for 'hit and run' burglars who want a quick escape. scOS combats this with DVLA Vehicle Recognition. Our AI identifies every vehicle that approaches your property, checking registrations against the DVLA database to flag suspicious or cloned plates. This information is processed instantly, and you can even ask the scOS Director, 'What vehicles have been near my house today?' for a full report. This level of intelligence is a powerful tool for identifying and deterring transient criminals.

Many residents in Crockenhill commute to London, leaving properties empty for long stretches of the day. scOS is perfect for this lifestyle. Our Presence Simulation doesn't just use simple timers; it uses AI to mimic your actual habits, making it impossible for a casual observer to tell you’re not home. If someone does approach while you're at work, the system's escalating response—from lights to voice warnings—will handle the situation automatically. You’ll receive an alert on your phone only for 'important activity,' so you won't be distracted by false alarms while you're in the office.

scOS is designed to be incredibly user-friendly. You don't need to manage complex settings or draw motion zones. You can interact with the system using the scOS Director, a conversational AI. You can ask natural questions like, 'Was there anyone in the garden last night?' or 'Did the postman come today?' and get an immediate, accurate answer. This makes managing your home security as easy as having a conversation, providing you with total peace of mind without any technical hassle.
