Every time you leave home, there's that nagging worry. Did I lock up properly? Is someone watching the house? You shouldn't have to feel anxious about your own home.
Something happened in the garden last night. Now you're scrubbing through 8 hours of footage trying to find 30 seconds of activity. Life's too short for this.
Your phone buzzes constantly. A cat. Cobwebs. Headlights. After a while you stop checking, which defeats the entire point of having cameras.
Not motion. Not shadows. scOS detects the kind of activity a trained security guard would notice. When your phone buzzes, it matters.
Family, friends, the builder—scOS learns who belongs. No repetitive alerts for familiar faces. Only strangers trigger attention.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Harston
Traditional CCTV is passive; it records footage that you usually only see after a crime has occurred. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. It uses our MotionX technology to identify 'important activity'—like a person entering your property—while ignoring distractions like animals or wind. Most importantly, scOS takes action. It automatically detects your property boundaries and uses lights and voice warnings from external speakers to deter intruders before they can break in. It doesn't just watch; it actively stops crime.
Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have cameras at your Harston property, our UK-based engineers can often integrate them with the scOS Intelligence Hub during our professional installation. This turns your existing cameras into an AI-powered security network, giving you access to MotionX detection, presence simulation, and proactive deterrents without needing to replace all your hardware.
scOS uses three layers of deterrence. First, Presence Simulation mimics your daily routines by controlling internal lights and activity, making your home look occupied even when you're away. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders instantly, even if they try to hide their face or shape. Third, Active Intervention triggers immediate light and voice warnings from external IoT speakers when a boundary is crossed. This escalating response is designed to convince any intruder that the property is being actively monitored by a live security presence.
Your data security is our top priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your footage is stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data. Your Intelligence Hub processes data locally for instant AI response, while the cloud is used for secure remote access and backup. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you via our encrypted app.
A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only covers your front door. scOS provides proactive, property-wide protection. It monitors your entire boundary and uses AI to stop criminals before they even reach your door. While a doorbell might show you a crime in progress, scOS is designed to prevent it. With advanced features like DVLA vehicle recognition and the scOS Director conversational AI, it offers a level of security and insight that a doorbell cannot match.
Harston's proximity to the M11 and Cambridge makes it a convenient location, but also one that can be targeted by opportunistic criminals. scOS is ideal for Harston residents because it provides high-level protection that is easy to manage. Our Presence Simulation is perfect for those who commute into the city, ensuring the home always looks occupied. The system is also smart enough to ignore the traffic noise from the main roads, focusing only on real threats to your property.
Yes, scOS includes DVLA vehicle recognition as standard. This is a powerful tool for Harston homeowners, allowing the system to identify and log every vehicle that enters your property. It can check registrations against the DVLA database to flag suspicious or cloned plates. This information is stored securely and can be invaluable for Cambridgeshire Constabulary if there is any suspicious activity in the village, providing clear, actionable intelligence.
scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. Instead of scrolling through hours of footage, you can simply ask, 'Was there anyone on the driveway this morning?' or 'Did any delivery vans arrive while I was out?' The AI will provide you with a clear, concise summary of the activity, making it easier than ever to stay informed about what's happening at your Harston home.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
