Traditional CCTV is a passive recording tool, but scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent crime. Most systems in Longnewton rely on basic motion detection, which often leads to false alarms from wind or animals. Our MotionX technology is different; it focuses only on 'important activity,' using AI to accurately identify people and vehicles. Furthermore, scOS doesn't just watch—it acts. It uses presence simulation to make your home look occupied and external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings the moment someone crosses your property boundary. It transforms your security from a simple camera into an active deterrent that stops criminals before they can even reach your door.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have a system installed at your Longnewton property, we can often integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This allows you to keep your existing hardware while upgrading to our advanced AI features like MotionX detection and scOS Director. During our professional installation, which takes about 4-6 hours, our UK-based engineers will evaluate your current cameras and ensure they are perfectly positioned to work with our AI. This is a cost-effective way to bring state-of-the-art proactive security to your home without a complete equipment overhaul.

scOS uses a powerful three-layer deterrent system. First, Presence Simulation mimics your daily routines by controlling internal lights and activity patterns, making your home appear occupied even when you're away. Second, our MotionX AI monitors your property boundaries 24/7, identifying suspicious behaviour and recognising people regardless of their movement or clothing. Third, if an intruder is detected, the system triggers an Active Intervention. This includes instant lighting and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers. These warnings inform the intruder that they have been detected by an AI system, which is usually enough to make them flee. This proactive approach is designed to stop a break-in before any damage is done to your Cleveland home.

We prioritise your privacy by keeping all data within the UK. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and our data centres are fully GDPR compliant. Unlike other systems that process everything in the cloud, our Intelligence Hub handles most AI processing locally on your property. This means your data stays private and the system remains fast. When data is sent to the cloud for escalation, it is encrypted and stored in our secure UK facilities. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are kept for up to two weeks. We never sell your data, ensuring that your home's security remains your private business.

A video doorbell only covers your front door and is often reactive, notifying you after someone has already arrived. scOS is a comprehensive, whole-property intelligence system that monitors your entire boundary. It uses wired connections, which are far more reliable and harder to jam than the Wi-Fi used by doorbells. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS uses MotionX AI to detect the thief the moment they step onto your land and uses voice deterrents to stop them before they reach your porch. For residents in Longnewton, scOS offers a much higher level of protection and proactive intervention for your entire property.

Longnewton's location near the A66 and Teesside Airport makes it a target for 'transient' crime, where thieves use major roads to quickly enter and exit an area. Cleveland Police often warn that villages with good road links can be vulnerable to opportunistic theft. scOS is specifically designed to counter this by providing a proactive deterrent that makes your home a 'hard target.' Our DVLA Vehicle Recognition can flag suspicious cars, and our MotionX AI detects intruders at the boundary, stopping them before they can act. Even with a lower-than-average crime rate, scOS ensures that your home remains safe from criminals using the A66 corridor.

Yes, scOS is highly effective at protecting vehicles. Our DVLA Vehicle Recognition feature automatically checks the registration of any car entering your property against the national database, flagging any suspicious or cloned plates. MotionX AI can detect someone loitering near your driveway or garage, even in the dark, and trigger an immediate response, such as turning on lights and issuing a voice warning. This proactive approach is designed to stop car theft and 'relay' attacks before they happen, providing essential protection for residents in Longnewton who may have high-value vehicles parked outside.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. Instead of searching through hours of video, you can simply ask, 'Was there any activity on the driveway last night?' or 'When did the delivery arrive?' The AI will provide a clear answer based on its analysis of the recorded footage. It can even distinguish between family members and strangers based on their behaviour. This makes managing your home security in Longnewton incredibly easy and intuitive, giving you instant information and peace of mind without any technical hassle.
