Traditional CCTV is a passive witness that only helps after a crime has occurred, but scOS is a proactive intelligence system. While standard cameras rely on "motion detection" that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, scOS uses MotionX technology. This revolutionary AI focuses only on "important activity," meaning it ignores cobwebs, spiders, and weather, resulting in zero false alarms without the need for complex motion masks. Furthermore, scOS doesn't just record; it intervenes. It automatically detects your property boundaries and uses escalating responses to deter intruders before they can cause damage, transforming your security from a simple recording device into a 24/7 digital security guard.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic and can transform your existing "dumb" cameras into an intelligent security network. Our system is compatible with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure it meets the necessary specifications. By integrating your existing cameras with our Intelligence Hub, you gain all the benefits of MotionX detection and proactive AI monitoring without needing to replace your entire hardware setup, making it a cost-effective way to upgrade to world-class home intelligence.

scOS employs a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy designed to stop criminals before they even reach your door. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your home's normal activity patterns and simulate them while you're away, making the property appear occupied. The second layer is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour and recognises people even if they are hooded or masked. Finally, if a threat is detected, scOS initiates Active Intervention. This involves instant illumination of the area and escalating voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. This proactive approach ensures that intruders are identified and challenged long before they can attempt a break-in.

At scOS, we take your privacy as seriously as your security. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all our data centres are located right here in the UK. Our system is fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your data remains yours and is never sold to third parties. We use a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub handles initial detection locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced analysis or remote access. You have complete control over your footage, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks, accessible only by you through our secure platform.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a PIR sensor. In contrast, scOS provides comprehensive property intelligence that stops crime before it happens. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire property boundary using AI that understands the difference between a delivery driver and a potential intruder. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, scOS protects your whole perimeter, not just the front door. It’s the difference between seeing a package thief and preventing them from ever stepping onto your driveway.

Ebbsfleet Valley's proximity to the International station and the M25 makes it a prime target for organised vehicle theft. scOS features integrated DVLA vehicle recognition, which automatically checks the registration plates of any vehicle entering your property boundary against the national database. This allows the system to identify cloned plates or suspicious vehicles that have been flagged in other areas. If an unauthorised vehicle lingers or enters your driveway, scOS can immediately alert you and initiate deterrent protocols, providing a level of protection that standard security systems simply cannot match.

Absolutely. We understand that many residents in Ebbsfleet Valley live in modern new-build homes and want to maintain their property's aesthetic. Our professional UK installation team is expert at "invisible" wiring, ensuring that the scOS Intelligence Hub and any necessary IoT speakers are installed discreetly. We prioritise wired connections over wireless because they are more secure and cannot be jammed by sophisticated burglars. The installation typically takes just 4 to 6 hours, and we leave your home exactly as we found it, but significantly smarter and more secure.

scOS is perfect for the busy Ebbsfleet commuter. Our Presence Simulation feature is specifically designed for people who are away from home for long periods. Unlike simple timers that turn lights on at the same time every day, our AI learns your actual living patterns—when you're in the kitchen, when you're in the lounge—and replicates them realistically. This makes it impossible for a criminal "casing" the street to tell that you're actually stuck on a train back from St Pancras. You can also use the scOS Director to ask natural questions like "Has anyone been to the front door today?" for instant peace of mind.
