Standard CCTV is essentially a digital witness; it records your property being violated so you can show the footage to the police after the fact. scOS is a digital bodyguard. Our system uses MotionX technology, a revolutionary AI that focuses on 'important activity' rather than just motion. While traditional cameras are triggered by swaying trees, cobwebs, or passing foxes, scOS ignores the noise and only alerts you to genuine threats. Most importantly, scOS doesn't just watch; it acts. By automatically detecting your property boundaries, it can trigger instant light and voice responses to deter an intruder before they ever reach your door. It’s the difference between having a video of a crime and preventing the crime from happening in the first place.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-level intelligence system. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation—which typically takes between 4 and 6 hours—our engineers will assess your current hardware and integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This hub processes your video feeds locally using our proprietary AI before escalating to the cloud. By using your existing wired infrastructure, we provide a more secure and stable connection than wireless alternatives, which are often susceptible to signal jamming by modern criminals.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which is our primary passive deterrent. The system learns your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them while you're away, making the house appear occupied. The second layer is our MotionX detection. This AI is trained to recognise human behaviour regardless of whether a person is walking, crawling, or attempting to hide their figure with a mask or hoodie. Finally, we use Active Intervention. If the AI detects a persistent threat, it triggers external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and activates automatic lighting. This proactive approach forces criminals to realise they have been spotted, usually causing them to flee before attempting a break-in.

We take data privacy incredibly seriously. Unlike many security companies that store data on international servers, scOS is 100% UK-based. This means our company, our support teams, and our data centres are all located right here in the UK. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your data remains yours and is never sold or shared with third parties. Your Intelligence Hub processes most of the AI logic locally on your property for maximum speed and privacy, only using our secure UK cloud for heavy lifting and remote access. You have 24/7 access to your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks, giving you total peace of mind.

A video doorbell is a useful tool for seeing who is at the door, but it is fundamentally reactive. It usually only alerts you once someone is already on your doorstep, and it offers very little in the way of actual crime prevention. scOS is a comprehensive home intelligence system that protects your entire property boundary. While a doorbell might show you a parcel being stolen, scOS uses AI to identify suspicious behaviour the moment someone enters your driveway or garden. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, scOS is designed to stop a criminal in their tracks long before they get near your front door. It’s proactive security versus a simple digital peephole.

Farcet’s location on the edge of Peterborough can make it a target for 'spillover' crime from the city. scOS is designed to handle this by providing a proactive shield. Our AI-driven boundary detection knows exactly where your property begins and can trigger an immediate response if someone enters your land. Whether it's turning on lights or issuing a voice warning from our external IoT speakers, scOS makes it clear to any intruder that your home is actively monitored. This is far more effective than passive city-style CCTV, as it stops the intruder before they can cause damage or gain entry.

Many Farcet properties have outbuildings or are in more isolated Fenland spots. scOS is ideal for this because it uses wired connections, which are much more reliable over distance than WiFi. Our AI also features 'Activity Pattern Recognition,' which learns the normal rhythms of your property. If there is unusual activity near a barn or workshop at 3 AM, the system recognises this as an anomaly and alerts you immediately. It can also trigger an escalating response to deter the intruder, ensuring your entire property is protected, not just the main house.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to talk to your security system. For Farcet residents, this means you can simply ask, 'Was there any suspicious activity last night?' or 'When did the delivery arrive?' The AI will scan your footage and provide a natural language answer. This is much faster and more intuitive than traditional systems where you have to manually review hours of video. It gives you a high-level overview of your home's security in seconds, perfect for staying informed without the stress of managing a complex system.
