Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records a crime while it happens, often leaving you with grainy footage of a masked intruder after the damage is done. scOS transforms your security into a proactive guardian using MotionX technology, which focuses on 'important activity' rather than just movement. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks to avoid false alarms from trees or cobwebs, scOS works out of the box to identify real threats. It doesn't just watch; it intervenes automatically to stop intruders before they reach your door.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic and can breathe new life into your existing infrastructure. If you have wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, or Reolink, our Intelligence Hub can often integrate them into the scOS ecosystem. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure compatibility. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI intelligence without the cost of replacing every camera on your property.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation makes your home appear occupied when you're away by mimicking natural human activity patterns inside the house. Second, our MotionX AI identifies suspicious behaviour—even if the person is covering their face or trying to hide—and ignores non-threats like animals or wind. Finally, if a threat is detected, the system triggers an escalating response: instant illumination from external lights followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers to warn the intruder they are being monitored.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is a 100% UK-based operation. All data is processed through our local Intelligence Hubs and secured in UK-based data centres, ensuring full GDPR compliance. Unlike many international brands, we never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks, accessible only by you through our secure encrypted platform.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is already at your front door, often too late to prevent a break-in. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary and detecting threats long before they reach an entry point. While a doorbell might send a notification to your phone while you're busy, scOS takes autonomous action to deter the criminal. It’s the difference between a doorbell and a digital security guard that never sleeps.

For Menai Bridge residents with second homes or holiday lets, scOS is a game-changer. Our Presence Simulation feature makes the property look occupied even during the off-season by simulating human activity patterns. You can also use scOS Director to ask natural questions like 'Has anyone been to the house today?' giving you total peace of mind from anywhere in the world.

Coastal environments like the Menai Strait can be tough on electronics, but scOS uses high-quality wired hardware that is far more resilient than wireless alternatives. Our MotionX AI is also specifically tuned to ignore the movement of the sea, swaying boats, or coastal birds, ensuring you only get alerted to genuine human threats on your property.

Menai Bridge sees a lot of visitor traffic, which can make it hard to spot someone who doesn't belong. scOS uses Person Recognition to learn the normal behaviour of your family and regular visitors. It doesn't use facial recognition; instead, it looks at patterns of movement to identify strangers or suspicious behaviour, such as someone loitering near your boundary or covering their face.
