Traditional CCTV is a passive witness that only helps after a crime has occurred, but scOS is a proactive intelligence system. While standard cameras rely on "motion detection" that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, scOS uses MotionX technology. This revolutionary AI focuses only on "important activity," meaning it ignores cobwebs, spiders, and weather, resulting in zero false alarms without the need for complex motion masks. Furthermore, scOS doesn't just record; it intervenes. It automatically detects your property boundaries and uses escalating responses to deter intruders before they can cause damage, transforming your security from a simple recording device into a 24/7 digital security guard.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic and can transform your existing "dumb" cameras into an intelligent security network. Our system is compatible with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure it meets the necessary specifications. By integrating your existing cameras with our Intelligence Hub, you gain all the benefits of MotionX detection and proactive AI monitoring without needing to replace your entire hardware setup, making it a cost-effective way to upgrade to world-class home intelligence.

scOS employs a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy designed to stop criminals before they even reach your door. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your home's normal activity patterns and simulate them while you're away, making the property appear occupied. The second layer is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour and recognises people even if they are hooded or masked. Finally, if a threat is detected, scOS initiates Active Intervention. This involves instant illumination of the area and escalating voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. This proactive approach ensures that intruders are identified and challenged long before they can attempt a break-in.

At scOS, we take your privacy as seriously as your security. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all our data centres are located right here in the UK. Our system is fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your data remains yours and is never sold to third parties. We use a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub handles initial detection locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced analysis or remote access. You have complete control over your footage, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks, accessible only by you through our secure platform.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a PIR sensor. In contrast, scOS provides comprehensive property intelligence that stops crime before it happens. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire property boundary using AI that understands the difference between a delivery driver and a potential intruder. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, scOS protects your whole perimeter, not just the front door. It’s the difference between seeing a package thief and preventing them from ever stepping onto your driveway.

Great Totham is a safe and desirable village, but its proximity to the A12 makes it an attractive target for criminals who use the main road for a quick escape. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which monitors every car that enters your property's vicinity. It checks registrations against the national database to identify cloned plates or vehicles flagged for suspicious activity elsewhere. This means that even if a criminal is just "scoping out" the area, your scOS system will recognise the anomaly and can alert you or initiate a deterrent response before they ever step out of the car.

Rural properties in Great Totham often have larger gardens and outbuildings that are difficult to secure. scOS uses Automatic Property Boundary Detection to map your land without needing manual "zones." This is particularly effective for properties with irregular boundaries or those with detached garages and sheds. The AI knows exactly where your private property begins and can trigger deterrents the moment someone steps onto your land, providing a proactive shield that traditional systems lack. This ensures your entire property is protected, not just the main house.

scOS is designed to be incredibly user-friendly. You don't need to be a tech expert to manage your security. With "scOS Director," our conversational AI, you can simply ask your system questions in plain English. For example, you could ask, "Was there any unusual activity while I was at the village fete?" or "What time did the delivery arrive?" The AI will scan your footage and give you a natural language answer. It’s like having a friendly security guard who knows your home’s routine and is always ready to give you a quick update.
