Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records your property being burgled so you can watch the footage later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that monitors your home in real-time. At its core is MotionX, our revolutionary activity detection technology. Unlike standard systems that trigger alerts for every swaying branch or passing cat, MotionX ignores environmental noise like spiders, wind, and animals. It focuses exclusively on 'important activity,' recognising human presence regardless of how someone moves or attempts to hide their figure. Because it understands the context of your property, it eliminates the frustration of false alarms. While your old system might send a notification for a shadow, scOS identifies a genuine threat and initiates a deterrent response before a crime is even committed. It transforms your security from a digital witness into an active digital guard.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic and can breathe new life into your existing hardware. If you have a professional, wired IP camera system—such as Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti—our Intelligence Hub can usually integrate with it. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup. We transform these 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent network by offloading the processing to our local Hub and UK-based cloud. This means you don't need to rip out your existing infrastructure to benefit from world-class AI. We prefer wired connections over wireless because they are immune to the Wi-Fi jamming techniques often used by modern burglars, ensuring your security remains robust and uninterrupted.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. The first layer is Presence Simulation; when you're away, the AI simulates natural human activity patterns inside your home to make it appear occupied, discouraging opportunistic thieves. The second layer is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour or individuals attempting to conceal their identity with hoods or masks. Finally, if a threat persists, the system initiates an Active Intervention. This isn't just a notification to your phone; the system automatically triggers external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and activates instant illumination. By detecting a boundary breach and responding with a human-like voice deterrent, scOS convinces the intruder they have been spotted by a live operator, usually causing them to flee before they even reach your door.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. All your video data and AI processing are handled between your local Intelligence Hub and our secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your data remains yours and is never sold or shared with third parties. You have total control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. This local-plus-cloud approach ensures that even if your internet connection is interrupted, the local hub continues to protect your home. We provide the convenience of cloud access with the security of local processing, keeping your private life private.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at your door—often when it's already too late. scOS is a comprehensive home intelligence system that protects your entire property boundary. While a doorbell has a limited field of view and often relies on 'dumb' motion detection, scOS uses AI to monitor your gardens, driveways, and side access points. It doesn't just show you a crime in progress; it is designed to stop the crime from happening. By using escalating responses and presence simulation, scOS addresses the threat while the intruder is still at the edge of your property. It provides a professional-grade, 24/7 protective shield that a plastic doorbell simply cannot match.

Gainsborough has a property crime rate that is significantly higher than the national average, meaning traditional security measures are often insufficient. scOS is built for these environments, providing an active deterrent that stops crime before it happens. Our system uses AI to detect suspicious activity and responds with escalating voice warnings and lights. In a high-crime area, this immediate, proactive response is vital for discouraging intruders and keeping your home safe.

Antisocial behaviour can be a concern in Gainsborough. scOS helps by providing 24/7 high-definition recording and AI that can identify recurring patterns of behaviour. Our 'Person Recognition' feature can distinguish between family members and strangers based on their activity, and the system can alert you to any unusual loitering or suspicious activity near your property. This provides you with clear evidence and a powerful deterrent against nuisance behaviour.
