Traditional CCTV is a passive tool; it records crime but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. At its heart is MotionX, a revolutionary AI that understands 'important activity.' Unlike standard systems that rely on 'motion masks'—which are often triggered by the wind in the Surrey Hills or local wildlife—scOS automatically detects your property boundaries and only alerts you to genuine human threats. It doesn't just record; it intervenes with automated lights and voice warnings, challenging intruders the moment they are detected and preventing crime before it happens.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Axis. During our professional installation in Elstead, our engineers will evaluate your current setup to see if it can be integrated with our Intelligence Hub. By upgrading your existing cameras with scOS, you gain the power of our AI and proactive deterrents without needing to replace all your hardware. We prefer wired systems over wireless because they are more reliable and cannot be 'jammed' by sophisticated burglars.

scOS uses a three-layer approach to keep your Elstead home safe. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your internal activity to make the house look occupied when you're away. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies intruders the moment they cross your boundary. Third is Active Intervention: if someone lingers, the system uses external IoT speakers to deliver a voice warning and activates high-intensity lighting. This escalating response makes it clear to any intruder that they are being monitored by an intelligent system, usually causing them to leave immediately.

Privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and your footage is never sold or shared with third parties. We use a 'Local + Cloud' processing model: the Intelligence Hub handles immediate AI tasks locally for speed, while our secure UK cloud handles remote access and long-term storage. You have total control over your data and can access your 24/7 recordings from anywhere via our secure app.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only monitors your front door. It might tell you a package has been stolen, but it won't stop the thief. scOS is a comprehensive property intelligence system. It monitors your entire boundary in Elstead, from the driveway to the back garden, and intervenes to stop crime before it happens. While a doorbell is a simple gadget, scOS is a professional-grade security solution designed to protect your entire home and family through active AI intervention.

Elstead's proximity to common land and the Surrey Hills means local wildlife is a frequent visitor. Traditional security systems often struggle with this, sending constant false alarms. scOS is different. Our MotionX AI is specifically trained to ignore animals, birds, and swaying trees, focusing only on human activity and vehicles. This means you can enjoy the local nature without your security system crying wolf every time a deer or fox wanders into your garden.

Yes, scOS features advanced vehicle recognition that checks plates against the DVLA database. This is particularly useful for Elstead residents concerned about suspicious vehicles scouting the area. You can use the scOS Director—our conversational AI—to ask questions like 'What cars have been on the drive today?' or 'Has that van been here before?' This gives you a powerful way to monitor activity around your home and identify potential threats before they escalate.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be incredibly user-friendly. You don't need to be a tech expert to use it. Our 'scOS Director' allows you to interact with your system using natural language. You can simply ask it questions about what's happening at your home, just like you're talking to a security guard. We also provide professional UK-based installation and support, ensuring your system is set up perfectly and you know exactly how to get the most out of it.
