Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is an active participant. Using our proprietary MotionX technology, the system distinguishes between 'important activity' (like a person approaching your property) and 'noise' (like a fox or swaying trees in the Derbyshire wind). Because it understands what it sees, it can intervene automatically with lights and voice warnings before a break-in occurs. Unlike traditional systems, there are no complex 'motion zones' to draw; our AI automatically learns your property boundaries and provides zero-false-alarm protection from the moment it's installed.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, or Reolink, our Intelligence Hub can often transform them into an AI-powered security network. During our professional installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our UK engineers will assess your current hardware. By layering scOS over your existing cameras, you upgrade from simple recording to proactive intelligence without needing to replace every piece of hardware on your home.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your internal lighting patterns and replicates them when you're away, making your home look occupied to anyone watching from the street. Second is MotionX detection: our AI identifies suspicious behaviour or concealed faces instantly, regardless of how a person is moving. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected within your boundaries, the system triggers external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and illuminates the area. This escalating response is designed to make criminals feel 'watched' and move on before they even touch a door or window.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many global brands, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and escalated to our secure UK-based data centres only when necessary. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your footage and data belong to you and are never sold or shared with third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a PIR sensor. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, including side gates and driveways, and acts to stop a crime before the criminal reaches your door. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from even stepping onto your driveway through proactive AI intervention.

Glossop's proximity to Manchester makes it a target for vehicle thieves who use the Snake Pass or the M67 for a quick getaway. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs every car that enters your driveway and checks it against the national database. It can identify cloned plates or vehicles that have been seen 'scouting' the area, giving you an early warning before a theft is even attempted.

Yes. scOS features Covered Face Detection, which is specifically designed to flag when someone is wearing a hood, mask, or balaclava to hide their identity. In a town like Glossop, where property crime is a concern, this feature ensures that the system immediately recognises suspicious intent and can trigger an escalating deterrent response to drive the intruder away.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to ask natural questions about your home. Instead of scrolling through hours of footage after a long commute back from Manchester, you can simply ask, 'Did any delivery drivers come to the door today?' or 'Was there anyone in the garden last night?' The AI will provide you with a summary and the relevant video clips instantly.
