Standard CCTV is a passive system that only records events for you to watch later, whereas scOS is an active AI that works to prevent crime in real-time. The core of our system is MotionX technology, which eliminates the frustration of false alarms. Unlike traditional systems that trigger for every moving shadow or insect, MotionX identifies 'important activity'—specifically focusing on human and vehicle movement. It automatically understands your property boundaries without you needing to draw lines. When it detects a genuine threat, it doesn't just record; it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop the intruder before they can cause any damage.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most professional wired IP cameras, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have cameras installed at your North Anston home, our Intelligence Hub can likely take over the feed and upgrade them with our advanced AI. During our professional UK-based installation, our engineers will assess your current setup and integrate it into the scOS ecosystem. This allows you to benefit from proactive protection, presence simulation, and conversational AI without the cost of replacing your existing camera hardware.

scOS uses a three-tier deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking your usual internal lighting and activity patterns—essential for when you're out for the evening in Sheffield or away on holiday. Second, our MotionX AI detects intruders at your property boundary, even if they are trying to hide their face or move stealthily. Third, the system triggers an Escalating Response: instant illumination followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive approach ensures that potential burglars are identified and challenged long before they ever reach your front door.

We are a 100% UK-based company, and we take your privacy very seriously. All your data is stored in secure UK data centres and processed in full compliance with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model: the scOS Intelligence Hub handles the majority of the AI processing locally on your property for speed and privacy, only using our secure UK cloud for 24/7 recording and remote access. We never sell your data to third parties, and you have complete control over your footage, ensuring that your North Anston home remains private as well as secure.

A video doorbell only covers your front door and is often a reactive tool—it tells you someone is there once they've already arrived. scOS provides 360-degree proactive protection for your entire property, including side gates and gardens. While doorbells are often wireless and can be easily jammed, scOS uses professional wired connections for 100% reliability. Most importantly, scOS uses AI to detect intruders at your property boundary and intervenes with active deterrents like lights and voice warnings to stop them before they ever reach your entrance, offering far superior protection than a simple doorbell.

North Anston has a property crime rate of 18.80 per 1,000 residents, which is below the national average, but this can often lead to complacency. Opportunistic thieves often target quieter villages like North Anston precisely because they expect security to be lower. scOS ensures you aren't an easy target by providing a 'security guard' that never sleeps. Our AI learns the normal patterns of your home and alerts you to any anomalies, ensuring that even in a relatively safe area, your property remains protected against the unexpected.

scOS is perfect for commuters. Our Presence Simulation feature is specifically designed to make your home look active during the day or evening when you're away at work. It doesn't just turn lights on and off on a timer; it simulates realistic human activity patterns inside the house. Combined with our MotionX technology that monitors your boundaries and the scOS Director which lets you check in on your home with simple natural language questions, you can have total peace of mind while you're away from North Anston.

scOS Director is our conversational AI interface that allows you to talk to your security system. Instead of spending hours reviewing footage, you can simply ask, 'Did any delivery drivers come by today?' or 'Was there anyone in the garden last night?' The AI will instantly search your recorded data and give you a clear, concise answer. It makes managing your home security as simple as having a conversation, giving you instant clarity on what's happening at your property without any technical hassle.
