Standard CCTV is a passive observer; it records your property being burgled but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. While traditional cameras rely on "motion masks" that you have to draw manually—and which still get triggered by spiders or wind—scOS uses our proprietary MotionX technology. MotionX understands what "important activity" looks like. It ignores cobwebs, animals, and swaying trees, focusing entirely on human behaviour. It doesn't matter if an intruder is crawling, wearing a balaclava, or trying to hide behind a bush; scOS recognises the threat instantly. Because it doesn't rely on simple motion, we achieve zero false alarms, meaning when you get an alert, it’s real. Beyond just watching, scOS intervenes, using AI-driven light and voice responses to challenge intruders before they reach your door.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and works with almost any existing wired IP camera system, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. We believe in transforming "dumb" cameras into an intelligent security network rather than forcing you to start from scratch. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. We connect your cameras to our local Intelligence Hub, which provides the processing power needed for our advanced AI features. By using your existing wired infrastructure, we ensure a more stable and secure connection than wireless alternatives, which are susceptible to signal jamming. This approach allows you to upgrade to world-class AI protection without the cost of replacing every camera on your property.

scOS uses a unique three-layer approach to deterrence that starts long before a criminal touches your property. The first layer is Presence Simulation. This isn't a simple light timer; our AI learns your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making the house appear occupied to anyone watching. The second layer is our MotionX detection. Our AI monitors your property boundaries 24/7, identifying suspicious behaviour or "covered face" detection (like hoods or masks) with incredible accuracy. The third layer is Active Intervention. If the AI detects a genuine threat, it triggers an escalating response. This starts with instant illumination from external lights and progresses to clear, authoritative voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. These aren't pre-recorded loops; they are AI-driven responses designed to let the intruder know they have been spotted and are being monitored.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is built on a foundation of trust and transparency. Unlike many security companies that ship your data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. This means our company, our support teams, and our data centres are all located right here in the UK. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring that your data remains yours and is never sold to third parties. Our system uses a hybrid processing model: the scOS Intelligence Hub handles most of the heavy lifting 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 full control over your footage, with 24/7 recording stored for up to two weeks, accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you who is at your door, often after they’ve already pressed it or stolen a parcel. scOS is a comprehensive home intelligence system that protects your entire property, not just the front step. While a doorbell might show you a recording of a break-in, scOS is designed to stop the crime from happening in the first place. By monitoring your property boundaries and using proactive deterrents like presence simulation and voice warnings, we address threats at the perimeter. Furthermore, doorbells are often wireless and easily jammed or bypassed. scOS uses professional, wired installations that provide 24/7 coverage of your whole garden, driveway, and outbuildings, all managed by a sophisticated AI that understands the difference between a delivery driver and a prowler.

scOS contributes to Langwith's community safety by providing a visible and audible deterrent to crime. When criminals know that homes in an area are protected by proactive AI that challenges them the moment they step onto a property, they are much less likely to target that neighbourhood. Our system doesn't just protect your home; it helps create a safer environment for all residents by making property crime significantly harder to commit.

Absolutely. Through our secure app, you can check in on your Langwith home from anywhere in the world. You can view live feeds, review 24/7 recordings, and even use our scOS Director AI to ask questions like "Was there any activity in the garden today?" This gives you total peace of mind while you're at work or away on holiday, knowing that your home is being actively guarded by the UK's most advanced AI.

Yes, scOS is designed to protect your entire property boundary, including detached garages, sheds, and outbuildings. Because our AI auto-detects your property lines, it can monitor these vulnerable areas just as effectively as your main house. If someone approaches your garage or tries to tamper with an outbuilding, the system will trigger the same escalating deterrents to drive them away.
