Every time you leave home, there's that nagging worry. Did I lock up properly? Is someone watching the house? You shouldn't have to feel anxious about your own home.
Something happened in the garden last night. Now you're scrubbing through 8 hours of footage trying to find 30 seconds of activity. Life's too short for this.
Your phone buzzes constantly. A cat. Cobwebs. Headlights. After a while you stop checking, which defeats the entire point of having cameras.
Not motion. Not shadows. scOS detects the kind of activity a trained security guard would notice. When your phone buzzes, it matters.
Family, friends, the builder—scOS learns who belongs. No repetitive alerts for familiar faces. Only strangers trigger attention.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Longstanton and Northstowe
Traditional CCTV is a passive system that only records footage, often only useful after a crime has occurred. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity' in real-time. Unlike standard systems that trigger for every moving shadow or animal, MotionX is trained to recognise human shapes and behaviour, even if someone is trying to hide. When a threat is detected, scOS takes immediate action. Using automatic property boundary detection, it triggers escalating responses like instant lighting and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers, deterring criminals before they ever reach your home.
Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and can work with most existing wired IP cameras, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. Our professional UK installation team will visit your Longstanton or Northstowe home to set up the scOS Intelligence Hub and integrate your current cameras, a process that usually takes 4-6 hours. This upgrades your existing 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent, proactive system with MotionX detection and DVLA vehicle recognition. It’s a cost-effective way to get state-of-the-art AI protection without needing to replace all your current hardware.
scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy to keep your property safe. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your household's patterns and replicate them while you're away, making your home look occupied. If an intruder approaches, our MotionX technology identifies them immediately, regardless of disguises. This triggers the second layer: Active Intervention. The system automatically turns on lights and delivers voice warnings through external IoT speakers. These AI-driven warnings are designed to escalate if the person doesn't leave, providing a powerful deterrent that stops criminals before they can attempt a break-in.
We prioritise your privacy, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. All your data is stored in secure UK data centres and is fully GDPR compliant. We use a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub handles most of the AI analysis locally on your property, ensuring maximum speed and privacy. Only essential information is sent to our secure UK cloud for remote access via our app. We never sell your data, and you have complete control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks.
A video doorbell only alerts you when someone is already at your door, which is often too late. scOS provides comprehensive intelligence for your entire property. Using AI-driven detection, scOS can spot a suspicious individual the moment they enter your driveway or garden, long before they reach your threshold. It can identify suspicious behaviours, such as loitering or face concealment, and trigger proactive deterrents like voice warnings and lights. Furthermore, scOS is a hardwired system, making it immune to the WiFi jamming techniques that can disable many video doorbells, ensuring your home is always protected.
New-build communities like Northstowe can be targets for opportunistic crime as residents move in and construction continues. scOS is ideal for these areas because it provides comprehensive property protection from day one. Our professional installation ensures that your system is neatly integrated into your new home, and our AI-driven detection can distinguish between legitimate construction activity and suspicious loitering. This proactive approach helps establish a secure environment for your family in your new community.
With many residents commuting to Cambridge or London, homes in Longstanton and Northstowe are often empty during the day. scOS features advanced Presence Simulation that goes beyond simple timers. It learns your actual habits—when you use certain rooms and lights—and replicates them realistically while you're at work. This makes your home appear occupied to anyone casing the area. Combined with our MotionX technology that monitors for 'important activity' 24/7, you can commute with confidence, knowing scOS is actively guarding your home.
scOS Director is a conversational AI that lets you interact with your security system using natural language. Instead of searching through hours of footage, you can simply ask, 'Did the delivery arrive today?' or 'Was there any activity near the back gate last night?' The AI understands the context of your property and provides immediate, accurate answers. This makes managing your home security incredibly simple and ensures you're always in the loop about what's happening at home, whether you're in the village or at work.
