Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive guardian. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every gust of wind or passing cat, scOS uses MotionX technology. This revolutionary AI ignores the 'noise' of cobwebs and animals, focusing only on important activity. It recognises people regardless of how they move or if they try to hide their figure. Instead of just recording, scOS intervenes the moment a threat is detected, using automated light and voice responses to stop a break-in before it happens. It’s the difference between having a witness and having a security guard.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning we can often transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent 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. By connecting your existing cameras to our scOS Intelligence Hub, we can apply our MotionX detection and proactive response protocols to your current setup, saving you the cost of a full hardware replacement while vastly upgrading your home's intelligence and security.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your home's normal activity patterns and replicates them when you're away, making the house appear occupied. Second is our MotionX detection; unlike basic sensors, it identifies suspicious behaviour and covered faces instantly. Finally, if a threat persists, scOS triggers an Active Intervention. This isn't just a silent alert; the system uses external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and instant illumination. By detecting the threat at the property boundary and responding immediately, scOS ensures that criminals feel watched and exposed long before they reach your front door.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. All your video data and AI processing are handled by our UK data centres, and we are fully GDPR compliant. We use a hybrid approach: the scOS Intelligence Hub processes data locally for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced analysis or remote access. Your data remains yours; we never sell your information or allow unauthorised access. You have full control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a slow sensor. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. While a doorbell covers a few square metres, scOS monitors your entire property boundary, from the driveway to the back fence. It doesn't just show you who is there; it stops crime from happening. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, scOS identifies threats as they approach your home, not just when they are on your doorstep. It’s a comprehensive security ecosystem rather than a single-point gadget.

Marazion is a popular destination, and the high volume of visitors to St Michael's Mount can sometimes make it difficult to spot suspicious activity. scOS uses MotionX technology to filter out the 'noise' of normal tourist footfall, focusing only on activity that is relevant to your property. Our AI can distinguish between someone walking past on the pavement and someone lingering at your gate or entering your garden. This precision ensures that you are only alerted to genuine threats, providing a high level of security even in a busy, high-traffic area.

Yes, scOS is built for reliability in all environments. We use professional-grade, wired cameras that are designed to withstand the harsh salt air and coastal weather of Cornwall. Unlike wireless systems that can be prone to signal interference or battery failure in cold, damp conditions, our wired installations provide a constant, high-quality feed. Our UK-based installation team ensures that all equipment is fitted to the highest standards, providing you with a robust security system that you can depend on year-round, regardless of the weather.

For residents in Marazion who may have second homes or travel frequently, scOS 'Presence Simulation' is an invaluable feature. Our AI learns your typical home activity and replicates it when you're away, making the property appear occupied. This is a far more effective deterrent than simple light timers, as it mimics real human behaviour. Combined with our 24/7 recording and secure remote access via the scOS app, you can keep an eye on your Cornish home from anywhere in the world, knowing that scOS is proactively protecting it.
