Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your misfortune for later review, but scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent crime before it happens. While standard systems rely on 'motion masks' that trigger for every passing cat or swaying branch, our proprietary MotionX technology focuses exclusively on 'important activity,' recognising human presence regardless of how a person moves or attempts to conceal themselves. This means zero false alarms and no more annoying notifications for cobwebs or rain. Furthermore, scOS doesn't just watch; it acts. By using an Intelligence Hub that processes data locally before escalating to the UK cloud, it can trigger immediate deterrents like external voice warnings and lighting. It transforms your security from a simple camera into a digital security guard that understands the difference between a delivery driver and a genuine threat.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can breathe new life into your existing hardware. If you have professional-grade wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti, our Intelligence Hub can likely integrate with them to provide the full suite of scOS AI features. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes between 4 and 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure compatibility. By layering our AI over your existing cameras, you gain advanced features like DVLA vehicle recognition and presence simulation without the need for a complete hardware overhaul. This makes upgrading to a truly intelligent home security system both cost-effective and efficient, turning 'dumb' cameras into a proactive defence network.

scOS employs a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy to keep your home safe. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your normal internal activity patterns and replicates them when you're away, making your home appear occupied to any onlookers. If a prowler does approach, our MotionX technology instantly identifies them as a person, even if they are wearing a mask or hood. This triggers the second layer: Active Intervention. Instant illumination floods the area, and external IoT speakers deliver clear AI voice warnings to let the intruder know they have been detected. Finally, if the threat persists, the system uses an Escalating Response, increasing the intensity of the warnings. Unlike simple alarms, scOS engages with the intruder, removing the element of surprise and forcing them to retreat.

At scOS, we take your privacy as seriously as your security. Unlike many competitors who outsource data processing to international servers, we are a 100% UK-based company. All your data is stored in secure UK data centres and is fully GDPR compliant. The core intelligence of the system lives in your local Intelligence Hub, which processes activity on-site. Only when a potential threat is identified is the data escalated to our secure UK cloud for further analysis and to allow you to access recordings from anywhere in the world. Your data remains yours; we never sell your information or allow unauthorised access. You have complete control over your footage, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks, ensuring you have the evidence you need while maintaining total privacy.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it tells you who is at the door, but it rarely stops a determined criminal from entering your property. scOS provides whole-property intelligence that monitors your entire boundary, not just the front step. While a doorbell might alert you to a package delivery, scOS uses MotionX to detect someone lurking in your garden or tampering with a side gate. More importantly, scOS is proactive. A doorbell is reactive—you get a notification while the crime is happening. scOS intervenes automatically with lights and voice deterrents to stop the crime before it escalates. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and presence simulation, scOS offers a comprehensive security ecosystem that a single door-mounted camera simply cannot match.

Great Bedwyn is a beautiful, affluent village, and while the crime rate is low, this can lead to a false sense of security. Burglars often target such areas specifically because they expect high-value items and lower levels of active protection. scOS ensures you don't become a statistic by providing a high-tech deterrent that is always on guard. Our Presence Simulation is particularly effective here, making your home look occupied even if you're out for dinner in Marlborough or away for the weekend. By maintaining the appearance of a busy home, you significantly reduce the chance of being scouted by opportunistic thieves who frequent the Kennet and Avon Canal area.

Many homes in Great Bedwyn are historic or have unique architectural features that residents want to preserve. Our professional UK installation team is experienced in working with such properties. We use a wired-over-wireless approach, which is not only more secure against jamming but also allows for more discreet cable runs that respect the integrity of your home. We can often use existing infrastructure or find non-invasive routes for the necessary wiring. During the 4-6 hour installation, our engineers will work with you to ensure the cameras and IoT speakers are placed effectively for security while remaining as unobtrusive as possible, maintaining the aesthetic charm of your Wiltshire home.

Properties near the Kennet and Avon Canal can sometimes face unique security challenges due to the high volume of foot traffic from the towpath. scOS MotionX is ideal for this, as it can distinguish between someone simply walking their dog along the canal and someone who has actually stepped onto your property. Because scOS auto-detects your property boundaries, it won't trigger for every passer-by, but it will instantly respond if someone crosses onto your land. This allows you to enjoy the canal-side lifestyle without the constant worry of unwanted visitors or the annoyance of false alarms from the public path.
