Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records footage for you to watch after a crime has already been committed. scOS is a proactive security partner. At its core is MotionX, our revolutionary activity detection engine. Unlike traditional systems that trigger alerts for every passing cat or swaying branch, MotionX is trained to recognise 'important activity.' It identifies human forms and suspicious behaviours with 100% accuracy, even if an intruder is trying to hide their face or change their silhouette. This means zero false alarms for you. While old-fashioned systems rely on you to monitor them, scOS monitors itself, automatically triggering lights and voice warnings to stop intruders in their tracks before they can cause harm.

Yes, scOS is designed to be highly flexible and brand-agnostic. If you already have a wired IP camera system—such as Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink—we can usually integrate it directly into our Intelligence Hub. During our professional UK installation process, which takes about 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will perform a full assessment of your existing hardware. By upgrading your current 'dumb' cameras with scOS AI, you gain all the benefits of proactive protection, presence simulation, and MotionX detection without the need for a total hardware overhaul. We prioritise wired connections because they are far more reliable and secure than wireless alternatives, which are prone to signal interference and jamming.

scOS employs a powerful three-tier deterrent strategy. Firstly, Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking your daily habits when you're out, acting as a primary deterrent. Secondly, if someone enters your property, our MotionX AI instantly detects them—regardless of whether they are wearing a hood or mask. This triggers the third layer: Active Intervention. External IoT speakers deliver an AI-generated voice warning, and smart lights illuminate the intruder. If they don't leave, the system initiates an Escalating Response, making it clear that they are being monitored and recorded. This proactive approach removes the intruder's sense of security, usually causing them to flee immediately.

We take data privacy extremely seriously, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data never leaves the country; it is stored in secure UK data centres and managed in full compliance with GDPR. Our system uses a 'Local + Cloud' processing model. The scOS Intelligence Hub handles the heavy lifting locally on your property for maximum speed and privacy, only using our secure cloud for remote alerts and deep AI analysis. You retain full ownership and control of your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and accessible for up to two weeks. We never sell your data, ensuring your home's security remains your private business.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it's reactive and only covers a small area around your front door. scOS is a full-property intelligence system. It monitors your entire boundary—including side gates, gardens, and driveways—and acts to prevent crime before an intruder even reaches your door. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS uses proactive lighting and voice deterrents to stop the thief from stepping onto your property in the first place. With 24/7 recording and professional-grade AI, scOS offers a level of comprehensive security that a simple doorbell camera cannot match.

For those who commute to Cambridge via the A1307, scOS is the perfect partner. Our 'Presence Simulation' feature makes your home look occupied throughout the day by mimicking your usual patterns. You can also use the scOS app to check in on your home at any time. If anything unusual happens, you'll get an instant alert. Plus, with 'scOS Director,' you can simply ask, 'Has everything been quiet today?' and get a full report, so you can focus on your work in the city knowing your home in Linton is secure.

Linton is a safe village, but its good transport links can make it a target for opportunistic crime. scOS is about prevention and peace of mind. Our system ensures that your home remains safe by proactively deterring any unusual activity. By having scOS installed, you're not just reacting to crime; you're ensuring that your property stays as safe as the rest of the village, giving you one less thing to worry about.

Yes, scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition. This is perfect for monitoring your driveway and any vehicles parked there. The system can identify the make and model of any vehicle that enters your property and check its number plate against the DVLA database. It can even spot 'cloned' plates. If an unrecognised vehicle shows up, you'll get an alert right away. This adds an extra layer of security for your cars and helps you stay aware of who is visiting your property, which is especially useful in a busy commuter village like Linton.
