Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records crime but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent crime. The core of our system is MotionX technology, which ignores 'noise' like wind, animals, or shadows and focuses exclusively on 'important activity'—human behaviour. It can recognise a person even if they are disguised or moving in unusual ways. When scOS detects a threat, it doesn't just record; it intervenes. Using external voice deterrents and automatic lighting, it stops intruders at the boundary before they can reach your home. It’s the difference between having a recording of a burglary and preventing one from happening.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have a wired system at your Northleach property, our professional UK installers can usually integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. During the 4-6 hour installation process, we will assess your existing hardware to ensure it's compatible. This allows you to upgrade to the UK's most advanced AI security without the cost of replacing all your cameras, turning your existing setup into a proactive, intelligent security network.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your daily habits and mimics them when you're away, making your home look occupied. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies human threats the moment they cross your property boundary—which the system detects automatically. Third is Active Intervention. If an intruder is detected, scOS uses external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and triggers instant lighting. This escalating response lets the criminal know they have been spotted by an intelligent system, which is usually enough to make them flee immediately. It’s a comprehensive strategy designed to stop crime at the boundary.

We are a 100% UK-based company, and your privacy is our top priority. Your data is processed using a hybrid model: our Intelligence Hub handles the AI processing locally on your property for speed and security, while any necessary cloud escalations are managed in our secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. We never sell your data to third parties. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks. This ensures your data stays within the UK and is protected by the highest security standards.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only covers your front door and only alerts you once someone is already there. In a village like Northleach, with its historic buildings and varied layouts, you need more robust protection. scOS monitors your entire property boundary, detecting intruders long before they reach your door. While a doorbell lets you watch a crime happen, scOS is proactive and uses AI to intervene and stop it. Furthermore, scOS uses professional wired connections that are much more secure than the Wi-Fi connections used by doorbells, which can be easily jammed.

Northleach attracts many visitors, and it can be hard to distinguish between a lost tourist and someone scouting a property. Our MotionX AI is designed to recognise suspicious behaviour patterns rather than just movement. It can differentiate between someone walking past on the pavement and someone loitering or attempting to conceal their identity. This means you get the protection you need without being bothered by the normal footfall of a busy Cotswold village.

Many homes in Northleach are historic or have unique architectural features. Our professional UK installers are experienced in working with these types of properties, ensuring that the installation is discreet and respects the building's character. We use wired connections for maximum security, but we do so in a way that minimises impact on the property. During the 4-6 hour installation, we'll ensure your scOS system is perfectly integrated into your home, providing modern AI protection without compromising its historic charm.

Northleach has a relatively low crime rate, but property crime (13.71) is still a concern. Our Presence Simulation is a key feature for residents who may be away for the day or on holiday. It doesn't just use timers; it mimics your actual behaviour inside the house, making it look occupied to anyone watching from the street. This is the most effective way to prevent your home from being targeted in the first place, ensuring that Northleach remains a safe place for you and your family.
