Traditional CCTV is passive; it records crime but does nothing to stop it. It also relies on 'motion masks' which are notoriously unreliable. scOS uses MotionX, an AI that understands 'important activity' without any manual setup. It automatically detects your property boundaries and recognises people, even if they try to hide their face or change their appearance. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record—it intervenes. Using external IoT speakers and lights, it issues warnings to deter the intruder immediately. It’s a proactive security guard for your home, not just a camera.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. Our professional UK-based installers can usually integrate your existing cameras into the scOS Intelligence Hub in 4-6 hours. This transforms your 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent system capable of DVLA vehicle recognition and proactive deterrents. We’ll check your current camera placement during the install to ensure you’re getting the best possible protection for your Kilsby property, making your existing investment much more effective.

scOS uses three layers of protection. First, Presence Simulation mimics your internal lighting patterns to make your home look occupied while you're out. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders the moment they cross your boundary, ignoring false alarms like pets or wind. Third, the system uses Active Intervention: external IoT speakers deliver voice warnings and lights flash to tell the intruder they've been spotted. This immediate, automated response is designed to stop a criminal before they even attempt to break in, making it a far more effective deterrent than a simple alarm.

We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, so your footage is yours alone—we never sell or share it. scOS uses a hybrid of local and cloud processing; the Intelligence Hub in your home handles immediate detection, while our UK cloud provides advanced AI analysis. This ensures your system is fast, reliable, and private. You have 24/7 access to your recordings for up to two weeks via our secure app, no matter where you are.

A video doorbell only sees what's at your front door and often only alerts you when someone is already there. scOS provides whole-property protection, monitoring your entire boundary and detecting intruders much earlier. Doorbells are also often wireless and can be easily jammed. scOS uses professional wired connections for total reliability. Most importantly, scOS is proactive—it uses AI to automatically deter intruders with voice and light warnings, whereas a doorbell is a passive tool that requires you to be available to answer a notification.

Kilsby’s location near the M1, A5, and the DIRFT logistics hub makes it a prime area for criminals looking for easy access and quick escape routes. scOS counters this with DVLA vehicle recognition, which identifies every vehicle entering your property. If a vehicle with cloned plates or one that doesn't belong to your 'known' list is detected, scOS alerts you instantly. This proactive monitoring makes your home a much less attractive target for criminals scouting the major transport corridors for opportunities.

Kilsby has a very low crime rate, but this can lead to complacency, which criminals exploit. scOS is designed to maintain a high level of security without being intrusive. Our 'Presence Simulation' ensures your home always looks lived-in, even if you're away for the weekend. By having a system that is always 'on guard' and capable of automatic intervention, you ensure that your home remains part of the low-crime statistics rather than becoming an easy target for an opportunistic thief.

No. Our MotionX technology is specifically designed to eliminate false alarms. It ignores animals, birds, swaying trees, and even spiders on the lens. It focuses exclusively on 'important activity'—specifically human behaviour and vehicle movement. This is particularly useful in rural villages like Kilsby where local wildlife is common. When scOS sends you an alert, you can be certain it’s a genuine security concern, not just a fox in the garden or a windy night.
