Standard CCTV is a passive recording device that only helps after a crime has been committed. scOS is an active intelligence system designed to prevent crime. Most systems use basic motion detection that triggers for cats, wind, or shadows, leading to 'alert fatigue.' scOS uses MotionX, which ignores these distractions and only alerts you to 'important activity'—specifically human presence. It automatically detects your property boundaries in Findon without you needing to draw lines on a screen. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop the intruder in their tracks.

Yes, scOS is designed to be compatible with most existing wired IP camera systems. If you already have cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink installed at your Findon property, we can often integrate them into the scOS ecosystem. Our professional UK installers will conduct a full assessment during their visit. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we transform them from simple recording devices into an intelligent, proactive security network. This allows you to benefit from our MotionX detection and AI deterrents without the cost of a completely new hardware setup.

scOS employs a three-tiered deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation makes your Findon home look occupied when you're away by mimicking internal lighting and activity patterns. Second, our MotionX technology identifies suspicious human behaviour at your property boundary with zero false alarms. Third, if an intruder persists, the system triggers Active Intervention. This involves external IoT speakers delivering clear AI voice warnings and instant light responses. This escalating sequence is designed to convince any intruder that they have been spotted by a live guard, usually causing them to flee before they even touch a door or window.

We take data privacy extremely seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. Unlike many competitors, we are fully GDPR compliant and never sell your personal information or footage. Your Intelligence Hub processes most data locally on your property in Findon, only escalating to the cloud for advanced AI analysis. You have full control over your data through our app, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks, ensuring your security footage remains private and accessible only to you.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only covers your front door; scOS is a proactive system that protects your entire property. Doorbells often miss activity at the side or rear of the house and are prone to false alerts from passers-by on the street. scOS uses MotionX to monitor your entire boundary, distinguishing between a neighbour walking their dog and someone lurking near your windows. Furthermore, scOS is a hardwired system, making it immune to the WiFi jamming techniques that criminals often use to disable wireless doorbell cameras.

Findon is a beautiful, low-crime village, but its proximity to the A24 makes it an attractive target for opportunistic 'commuter' criminals who look for quiet areas with easy escape routes. A low local crime rate can sometimes lead to a false sense of security. scOS is designed to maintain that peace of mind by ensuring your home is never an easy target. By installing an intelligent system that detects and deters intruders before they reach your home, you ensure that Findon remains a safe place for your family, regardless of external trends.

Absolutely. Findon’s location on the edge of the South Downs means many properties have large gardens or are adjacent to public footpaths. scOS is perfect for these environments because our AI automatically detects your property line. It won't alert you every time a hiker walks past on a nearby trail, but the moment someone steps onto your land, the system recognises the intrusion. Because scOS is hardwired, it provides reliable coverage across your entire plot, ensuring that even the furthest corners of your garden are under intelligent protection.

Sussex Police do an excellent job, but rural response times can be a challenge during busy periods. scOS is designed to be your first line of defence, acting as a digital security guard that never sleeps. By using escalating deterrents—voice warnings and lights—the system aims to resolve the threat before the police even need to be called. If an incident does occur, scOS provides you with high-quality, AI-filtered footage and vehicle registration data (via our DVLA-linked recognition) that you can provide to Sussex Police to significantly increase the chances of a successful investigation.
