Standard CCTV systems in Ecclesfield and Grenoside are typically passive, meaning they only record footage for you to look at after a crime has happened. scOS is a proactive AI system that works to stop the crime before it occurs. Using our MotionX technology, scOS identifies 'important activity' and ignores false triggers like animals or wind. It automatically detects your property boundaries without needing manual setup. When an intruder is detected, scOS reacts instantly with lighting and voice warnings, letting the intruder know they've been spotted. It’s the difference between having a video of a break-in and preventing one entirely.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most wired IP cameras, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. If you already have a camera system at your Ecclesfield or Grenoside home, our Intelligence Hub can likely integrate with it, instantly upgrading your existing cameras with our advanced AI features. During our professional 4-6 hour installation, our UK-based engineers will connect your current hardware to the scOS ecosystem. This allows you to get the benefits of proactive AI protection and MotionX detection without the need for a full hardware replacement.

scOS uses a three-tier deterrent system to protect your home. First is Presence Simulation, which makes your home look occupied by mimicking human activity patterns inside while you're away. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies intruders even if they are wearing masks or trying to hide. Third is Active Intervention: if someone enters your boundary, the system triggers instant lighting and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This escalating response is designed to make any potential intruder realise they’ve been spotted by an intelligent system, usually causing them to flee immediately.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant and never sell your data to third parties. The system uses a hybrid approach: the Intelligence Hub processes most data locally on your property for speed and privacy, only using our secure cloud for advanced analysis and remote access. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are kept for up to two weeks. You get advanced AI security with the peace of mind that your data stays in the UK.

A video doorbell only sees what's at your front door and often only alerts you when it's too late. scOS provides full-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, detecting intruders the moment they step onto your land. Unlike doorbells that can be jammed or suffer from Wi-Fi lag, scOS is a professionally installed, wired system. It also includes advanced features like DVLA vehicle recognition to spot suspicious cars and covered face detection. scOS doesn't just show you who's at the door; it actively protects your entire property from every angle.

With Ecclesfield and Grenoside's property crime rate being higher than the national average, a proactive security system is essential. Traditional alarms and passive CCTV often aren't enough to deter determined criminals. scOS is designed to be a visible and audible deterrent that stops crime before it starts. By using AI to detect suspicious behaviour and intervening with voice warnings, scOS makes your home a much harder target, which is crucial in areas with higher property crime statistics.

Yes, scOS is an excellent choice for families in Ecclesfield and Grenoside. Our AI features 'Person Recognition,' which learns the normal behaviour patterns of your household and can distinguish between family members and strangers. You can use scOS Director, our conversational AI, to ask questions like, 'Did the kids get home safely?' The system provides natural language updates, giving you peace of mind about your family's safety whether you're at home or away.

South Yorkshire Police do a vital job, but they cannot be everywhere. scOS acts as your first line of defence, providing immediate intervention that can stop a crime before the police are even called. If an incident does occur, scOS provides high-quality, 24/7 recorded evidence that is far more useful for police investigations than standard CCTV, thanks to our AI's ability to highlight 'important activity' and recognise vehicle registrations. It’s a powerful tool that supports local law enforcement by providing clear, actionable intelligence.
