Traditional CCTV is a passive recording tool; it only shows you what happened after a crime. scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent crime from occurring. Our proprietary MotionX technology identifies 'important activity'—like a person loitering—while ignoring distractions like swaying trees or animals. Unlike other systems, scOS doesn't require you to draw 'zones'; it automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with automated lights and voice warnings from external IoT speakers to stop intruders before they can act.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have a system at your Dobcross property, we can likely integrate it with our scOS Intelligence Hub. This 'brain' upgrade adds AI intelligence to your existing cameras, enabling features like presence simulation and proactive voice deterrents. Our professional UK installers will assess your current hardware during the 4-6 hour installation to ensure it's fully optimised for the scOS platform.

scOS uses a three-layer defense strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which makes your home look occupied by mimicking your internal activity patterns—perfect for when you're away from Dobcross. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies people regardless of how they move or if they try to hide their faces. Third is Active Intervention: if someone crosses your boundary, the system uses external IoT speakers to deliver AI voice warnings and activates lighting. This escalating response is designed to make intruders feel exposed and monitored, deterring them before they ever reach your door.

Privacy is a core value at scOS. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in compliance with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub processes data locally on your property for speed and privacy, only using the cloud for advanced AI tasks and remote access. Your footage is yours alone; we never sell data to third parties. You have 24/7 access to your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and is often reactive. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary and intervening before a criminal even reaches your house. While doorbells can be easily bypassed or jammed if they are wireless, scOS uses professional wired connections for total reliability. It’s the difference between seeing who is at the door and having a comprehensive AI security system that actively prevents crime across your entire property.

Dobcross is famously safe, but in an era of high-value home assets, maintaining that tranquility requires more than just a standard alarm. Criminals often target low-crime areas because they expect residents to be less vigilant. scOS ensures you aren't an easy target by providing an invisible layer of intelligence that learns your home's normal routines and alerts you only to genuine anomalies. It’s about preserving the peace of mind you moved to Dobcross for in the first place.

We understand that Dobcross residents value the aesthetic of their village. Our professional UK installation is designed to be as discreet as possible. We use high-quality, compact cameras and ensure all wiring is hidden or neatly run. The scOS Intelligence Hub is a small, silent unit that sits indoors. Our goal is to provide world-class security without impacting the visual charm of your property or the surrounding village.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that lets you talk to your security system. Instead of hunting through footage, you can ask, 'Did anyone come to the back gate today?' or 'What time did the kids get home?' The system understands natural language and provides instant answers based on its activity recognition. It can even distinguish between family members and strangers based on their behavior patterns, making it an incredibly intuitive tool for busy households.
