Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that stops crime in progress. While standard systems rely on 'motion masks' that trigger for every passing cat or swaying branch, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity' only. It recognises humans even if they are crawling or wearing masks, and it automatically detects your property boundaries without you needing to draw lines. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record—it intervenes with automatic lighting and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers, deterring the intruder before they reach your door.

Absolutely. scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to transform 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent security network. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, or Reolink, our Intelligence Hub can usually integrate them seamlessly. During our professional UK-based installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By connecting your existing cameras to the scOS Hub, you gain access to MotionX detection, DVLA vehicle recognition, and our conversational AI, scOS Director, without needing to replace your entire infrastructure. This makes upgrading to world-class AI security both cost-effective and efficient.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: when you're away, the system simulates natural human activity patterns inside your home to make it appear occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour at your property boundary—it isn't fooled by disguises or unusual movement. Third is Active Intervention. If an intruder persists, the system triggers instant illumination and delivers escalating voice warnings through external IoT speakers. Unlike a simple alarm, scOS communicates to the intruder that they have been specifically identified, removing the 'cloak of anonymity' that criminals rely on to feel safe.

Privacy is a core pillar of the scOS philosophy. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for immediate response and then escalated to our secure UK-based cloud data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and your footage is never sold or shared with third parties. You retain total control over your data, with 24/7 access to up to two weeks of recordings from anywhere in the world. We combine the speed of local processing with the reliability of cloud storage to ensure your home is protected without compromising your privacy.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is already at your door; scOS is a comprehensive security solution that prevents them from getting that far. Doorbells often suffer from 'notification fatigue' due to false alarms and have a limited field of view. scOS monitors your entire property boundary using MotionX AI, which eliminates false alarms from animals or wind. While a doorbell might capture a package thief in the act, scOS identifies the scout or the vehicle with cloned plates minutes before an attempt is made, using proactive voice deterrents to stop the crime before it happens.

Lower Broadheath is a very safe area, but that can lead to complacency. Criminals often target low-crime areas because residents may be less likely to have advanced security. scOS ensures you aren't the 'easy target' in the village. Our AI works silently in the background, only alerting you when something truly unusual happens, so you can enjoy the peace of Elgar country without having to worry about your home's safety.

Lower Broadheath has many beautiful homes where aesthetics matter. Our professional UK-based installation team is trained to install systems with minimal visual impact. We use high-quality, discreet cabling and can often utilise your existing cameras if you already have them. The real power of scOS is in the Intelligence Hub, which can be tucked away out of sight, providing world-class AI protection without making your home look like a fortress.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that makes managing your security as easy as sending a text. You can ask it questions like, 'Did any delivery drivers come by while I was at the Elgar Birthplace Museum?' or 'Show me any cars that parked outside today.' It understands natural language and can quickly find the footage you need, saving you from scrolling through hours of recordings. It’s like having a digital security guard who knows your home inside out.
