Traditional CCTV is a passive system; it records what happens but doesn't stop it. In Milford Haven, where the crime rate is significantly higher than the national average, a system that only records is not enough. scOS is proactive. Our MotionX AI identifies 'important activity'—ignoring the wind, seagulls, or industrial noise and focusing only on human threats. Unlike standard systems that require you to manually set up 'zones,' scOS automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with automatic lighting and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. It stops an intruder at the perimeter, before they ever reach your home, providing active protection that keeps your property safe in a high-crime area.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most existing wired IP camera systems, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. If your Milford Haven home already has a wired camera setup, our Intelligence Hub can integrate it, transforming your existing cameras into a proactive AI security network. During our professional 4-6 hour installation, our UK engineers will connect your hardware to the scOS ecosystem. This allows you to benefit from our advanced MotionX AI, presence simulation, and proactive deterrents without needing to replace your current cameras. We use wired connections because they are more secure and immune to the jamming techniques often used by modern burglars, and they are far more reliable than wireless alternatives.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. The first is Presence Simulation: the system learns your daily habits and mimics them when you're away—turning lights on and off naturally so your home always looks occupied. This is the most effective way to deter burglars from even considering your property. The second layer is MotionX detection, which identifies people at your boundary even if they are trying to hide their identity. The third layer is Active Intervention: if someone enters your property, scOS triggers escalating responses, including smart lighting and voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This immediate, human-like reaction from the property itself is designed to convince any intruder that they have been spotted and the home is occupied, usually causing them to flee immediately.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We never sell your data to third parties. Our system uses a 'Local + Cloud' model: the scOS Intelligence Hub processes most activity locally at your home for maximum speed and privacy. It only uses our secure UK cloud for advanced AI analysis or to send you remote alerts. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our encrypted app. Your home's intelligence remains private and secure, whether you're in Milford Haven or elsewhere.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only monitors your front door. In an area like Milford Haven, where property crime is a significant concern, a doorbell is insufficient. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring every boundary and using AI to stop intruders before they even get near your door. While a doorbell might show you a person at the entrance, scOS uses presence simulation and voice deterrents to prevent them from even stepping onto your land. Furthermore, scOS is a professionally installed, wired system, making it immune to the Wi-Fi jamming and battery failures that often affect consumer-grade doorbells. It’s a complete security solution for your entire home.

Milford Haven’s position as a major port and industrial hub means there is a lot of vehicle movement. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies every car that approaches your property. It checks registration plates against the DVLA database to spot cloned plates or vehicles that have been flagged for suspicious activity. If a vehicle is seen scouting your street or lingering near your home, scOS can alert you immediately. This is a crucial feature for residents in Milford Haven, providing an early warning against criminals who may be using the local road network to target residential areas.

Dyfed-Powys Police are dedicated, but with the local crime rate being high, they are often stretched thin. scOS acts as your first line of defence, providing the immediate intervention that a physical police presence can't always offer. By using proactive voice deterrents and lighting, scOS often stops a crime before it's even committed. If an incident does occur, scOS provides Dyfed-Powys Police with high-quality, 24/7 recorded evidence. Our scOS Director AI allows you to search footage instantly by asking questions like 'Show me the person who was at the back door last night,' making it easy to provide the police with the exact evidence they need for an investigation.

Many residents in Milford Haven work in the refineries or at the port, often on irregular shift patterns. scOS is perfect for shift workers because of our advanced Presence Simulation. The system learns your actual behaviour—which rooms you use and when—and replicates it while you're at work, regardless of the time of day. To anyone outside, it looks like you are home. If someone does approach, the system's MotionX AI will alert you instantly on your phone, and the scOS Director allows you to ask natural questions about your property, giving you total peace of mind while you're on shift.
