Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime but does nothing to stop it. In a quiet village like Hightown, you need more than just a recording of a theft. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. It uses MotionX technology, which focuses on 'important activity' rather than simple motion. This means it ignores the wind off the coast or shadows from trees, focusing only on genuine threats. Unlike standard systems, scOS doesn't require you to set up complex zones; it automatically detects your property boundaries. When it spots an intruder, it uses external IoT speakers and automatic lights to intervene, deterring the criminal before they can cause damage.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, which takes about 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup. We can often transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence AI network by connecting them to our scOS Intelligence Hub. This allows you to benefit from our advanced features like MotionX detection and Presence Simulation without the need for a complete hardware overhaul, making it a smart and sustainable upgrade for your Hightown home.

scOS employs a three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your daily activity patterns inside the house—turning lights on and off or simulating movement—to make your home look occupied while you're commuting or away. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious human behaviour at your boundary, even if the person is trying to hide their face. Third is Active Intervention: if an intruder persists, the system uses external IoT speakers to deliver AI voice warnings and triggers bright, automatic lighting. This escalating response makes criminals feel exposed and watched, usually causing them to flee immediately.

Your privacy is our priority. 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 processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub processes most AI tasks locally on your property for maximum speed and privacy. Data is only sent to our secure UK cloud when necessary for remote alerts or cloud storage. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and only alerts you once someone is already there. For Hightown residents with detached or semi-detached homes, this leaves many blind spots. scOS provides comprehensive property protection. It monitors your entire boundary and uses AI to detect threats long before they reach your door. While a doorbell is reactive, scOS is proactive, using voice and light deterrents to stop a crime in progress. We don't just record the person stealing your car or parcel; we aim to prevent them from ever stepping onto your driveway.

For many Hightown residents who commute into Liverpool or Southport, leaving the house empty during the day is a major concern. scOS is specifically designed for this. Our Presence Simulation doesn't just use simple timers; it uses AI to learn your actual habits and replicates them realistically. This makes your home a much less attractive target for burglars who 'scout' neighborhoods for empty houses. Combined with our 24/7 AI monitoring, you can commute with total peace of mind, knowing scOS is actively guarding your home as if you were there.

Yes, scOS features advanced Covered Face Detection. Our AI is trained to recognise suspicious concealment, such as hoods, balaclavas, or masks, which are often used by criminals to avoid identification. When the system detects someone with a covered face near your property boundary, it immediately flags this as high-priority 'important activity.' This triggers an instant alert to your phone and can initiate an escalating response from the system's voice and light deterrents, ensuring that even those trying to hide are spotted and warned off.
