Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records what happens so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive AI system that works to stop crime before it occurs. Our MotionX technology is the key—it identifies 'important activity' like a person approaching your home, rather than just any motion like a bird or a swaying branch. It automatically understands your property boundaries, so you don't have to set up complex zones. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with lights and voice warnings, actively deterring intruders from your Crofty home.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. We install our Intelligence Hub, which acts as the 'brain' for your existing cameras, giving them advanced AI capabilities. During our professional UK installation—which typically takes 4-6 hours—our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure everything is perfectly integrated. This allows you to upgrade to the latest AI security without the cost of replacing all your existing hardware, making it an ideal choice for Crofty residents.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your daily habits and mimics them when you're away, making your home look occupied. Second is our MotionX AI, which detects suspicious activity with high precision, even if someone is wearing a mask or trying to hide. Finally, if a threat is detected, the system uses Active Intervention. This includes instant lighting and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This combination of looking like someone is home and providing an immediate vocal response is a powerful way to stop criminals before they even reach your door.

Your privacy is paramount. scOS is 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 to third parties. Our system uses a hybrid model: local processing on your Intelligence Hub for immediate response, and cloud processing for advanced analysis and secure storage. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are kept for up to two weeks. This ensures that your Crofty home's security data remains private, secure, and entirely under your control.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and is often reactive—you only know someone was there after they've already arrived. scOS provides 360-degree protection for your entire property, including gardens and side entrances. In a village like Crofty, where homes often have larger plots, a doorbell isn't enough. scOS detects threats at your property boundary, long before they reach the door. It also features proactive deterrents like voice warnings and presence simulation that doorbells don't have. scOS is a complete security solution, not just a notification on your phone.

Crofty’s location on the Gower Peninsula means our hardware needs to be durable. Our professional installation uses high-quality, wired components that are built to withstand coastal weather, including salt air and heavy rain. Wired systems are also more reliable than wireless ones, as they cannot be jammed. Our MotionX AI is specifically tuned to ignore environmental factors like wind and rain, ensuring that your security remains accurate and reliable, no matter what the Welsh weather throws at it.

During the peak seasons, the Gower sees many visitors. scOS is perfect for this because it can distinguish between normal activity and suspicious behaviour. Our Person Recognition feature knows the difference between your family and strangers based on their behaviour. If someone is loitering or acting unusually near your property, the system will flag it. This gives you peace of mind that your home is being watched by an intelligent system that understands the difference between a lost tourist and a potential threat.

We understand that South Wales Police have a large area to cover. scOS is designed to be your first line of defence, stopping crimes before they happen so you don't have to rely solely on police response. Our system's 'Active Intervention'—using lights and voice warnings—is usually enough to scare off any intruders. If you do need to involve the police, scOS provides crystal-clear 24/7 recording and detailed activity logs, giving the authorities the high-quality evidence they need to take action.
