Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your home being burgled, whereas scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent the crime from happening. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity'—specifically human behaviour—with zero false alarms. Instead of just watching, scOS intervenes automatically using light and voice deterrents the moment a boundary is breached, providing a level of security that old-fashioned cameras simply cannot match.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a sophisticated AI-driven network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware and integrate it with our Intelligence Hub, allowing you to upgrade your security without the cost of replacing every camera.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First, our Presence Simulation makes your home appear occupied even when you're away by mimicking natural human activity patterns inside the house. Second, our MotionX technology identifies suspicious behaviour the moment someone enters your property, even if they are wearing a mask or trying to hide. Finally, the system initiates an escalating response: if a threat is detected, external IoT speakers deliver AI voice warnings and lights illuminate the area, making it clear to the intruder that they have been spotted and the police are being notified.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is a 100% UK-based operation. All data is processed through our UK data centres and is fully GDPR compliant, ensuring your footage remains your property and is never sold to third parties. We use a hybrid processing model where the Intelligence Hub handles immediate analysis locally on your property before escalating critical events to our secure UK cloud, giving you 24/7 access to up to two weeks of recordings from anywhere in the world.

A video doorbell only tells you who is at your front door, often after they've already pressed it; scOS protects your entire property boundary. While doorbells are easily bypassed or covered, scOS uses professional-grade wired cameras that cannot be jammed and monitors every angle of your home. It doesn't just show you a crime in progress—it uses AI to stop the intruder before they ever reach your door, providing a comprehensive shield that a single doorbell camera simply cannot provide.

London Colney’s high property crime rate and proximity to the M25 make it a prime target for organised vehicle theft. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which automatically checks the plates of any car entering your driveway. If a vehicle with cloned or suspicious plates is detected, the system alerts you instantly and can trigger a voice deterrent to warn the thieves off before they even touch your car.

With crime rates in London Colney significantly higher than the national average, you need a system that doesn't just record, but actively intervenes. scOS uses escalating deterrents—the moment a boundary is breached, the system uses lights and AI voice warnings to let the intruder know they are being monitored. This proactive approach is designed to stop a crime in its tracks, making your home a much harder target than those with traditional CCTV.

scOS is designed for busy residents. With 'scOS Director,' you can use natural language to check on your home while you're at the Colney Fields Retail Park or commuting. Simply ask, 'Has anyone been near the house?' or 'Did my delivery arrive?' and get an instant, intelligent report. It gives you total control and peace of mind, no matter how busy your day is.
