Traditional CCTV is passive; it records what happens so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive AI system that works to stop crime before it occurs. Our MotionX technology is the key—it identifies 'important activity' like a person approaching your home, rather than just any motion like a bird or a swaying branch. It automatically understands your property boundaries, so you don't have to set up complex zones. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with lights and voice warnings, actively deterring intruders from your Herstmonceux home.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. We install our Intelligence Hub, which acts as the 'brain' for your existing cameras, giving them advanced AI capabilities. During our professional UK installation—which typically takes 4-6 hours—our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure everything is perfectly integrated. This allows you to upgrade to the latest AI security without the cost of replacing all your existing hardware, making it an ideal choice for Herstmonceux residents.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your daily habits and mimics them when you're away, making your home look occupied. Second is our MotionX AI, which detects suspicious activity with high precision, even if someone is wearing a mask or trying to hide. Finally, if a threat is detected, the system uses Active Intervention. This includes instant lighting and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This combination of looking like someone is home and providing an immediate vocal response is a powerful way to stop criminals before they even reach your door.

Your privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We never sell your data to third parties. Our system uses a hybrid model: local processing on your Intelligence Hub for immediate response, and cloud processing for advanced analysis and secure storage. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are kept for up to two weeks. This ensures that your Herstmonceux home's security data remains private, secure, and entirely under your control.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and is often reactive—you only know someone was there after they've already arrived. scOS provides 360-degree protection for your entire property, including gardens and side entrances. In a village like Herstmonceux, where homes often have larger plots or are more isolated, a doorbell isn't enough. scOS detects threats at your property boundary, long before they reach the door. It also features proactive deterrents like voice warnings and presence simulation that doorbells don't have. scOS is a complete security solution, not just a notification on your phone.

Herstmonceux is a historic village, and we understand the importance of maintaining your home's character. Our professional UK installation team is experienced in working with all types of properties, including heritage homes. We use wired systems for reliability and take care to install them discreetly. The system is designed to be non-intrusive, providing world-class security without detracting from your home's aesthetic. We'll work with you to ensure the cameras and speakers are placed effectively but subtly.

Herstmonceux is a safe village, but its location can make it a target for criminals travelling from larger coastal towns. scOS is designed to provide peace of mind without being intrusive. Our scOS Director feature lets you ask natural questions like, 'Director, was there anything unusual today?' This means you don't have to constantly check your cameras. The system stays alert so you don't have to, ensuring that your home remains safe even when you're not thinking about security.

We understand that Sussex Police have a wide area to cover. scOS is designed to be your first line of defence, stopping crimes before they happen so you don't have to rely solely on police response. Our system's 'Active Intervention'—using lights and voice warnings—is usually enough to scare off any intruders. If you do need to involve the police, scOS provides crystal-clear 24/7 recording and detailed activity logs, giving the authorities the high-quality evidence they need to take action.
