Traditional CCTV systems are passive—they only record video. You need to monitor the footage yourself or hire someone to do it. scOS uses AI-powered intelligence that actively watches your property 24/7, detecting suspicious activity in real-time. Our MotionX technology understands human behavior and distinguishes between normal activity and genuine threats. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record—it responds automatically within seconds with Presence Simulation and deterrent actions. Your CCTV becomes an active security partner, not just a recording device.

Yes. scOS works with most wired IP cameras (both wired PoE and WiFi). You don't need to replace your entire setup. Our Intelligence Hub connects to your existing cameras and powers all the AI features. If you don't have cameras yet, we can recommend compatible options. During professional installation, we'll integrate everything seamlessly into your network. Even if you prefer self-setup, our team provides clear guidance to ensure everything works perfectly.

scOS uses three powerful deterrent layers. First, Presence Simulation makes your home appear occupied—lights activate, sounds play, movement appears on screens—making burglars think someone's home and move to easier targets. Second, MotionX threat detection triggers immediate visual and audio deterrents when suspicious activity is detected, startling intruders before they can act. Third, scOS enables active intervention—professional monitoring, emergency service dispatch, and coordinated response. Criminals targeting Nottingham know they face real consequences with scOS. Combined, these layers stop crime before it happens.

Your video footage and security data are stored in UK data centres and never leave the country. We're fully GDPR compliant and transparent about data handling. Your Intelligence Hub processes much of the analysis locally on your property—AI doesn't need to send raw video to the cloud for basic threat detection. We use cloud processing only when needed for advanced features and professional monitoring. You have complete control: access your footage anytime, request deletion, and understand exactly how your data is used. Your privacy and security are equally important.

Video doorbells tell you who's at your door—but only after they've arrived. They don't protect your side gate, back garden, driveway, or windows. scOS covers your entire property with continuous AI monitoring across all your cameras. A doorbell reacts to visitors; scOS prevents crime before anyone reaches your door. You get 24/7 intelligent monitoring, threat detection, and automatic deterrence—not just a notification that someone's ringing. For Nottingham's property crime rates, doorbell-only security leaves most of your home unprotected.

The Intelligence Hub is a small, quiet device installed at your property that powers all scOS AI features. It connects to your cameras and processes threat detection locally, so analysis happens on your property with minimal cloud dependency. The Hub runs continuously, never needs attention, and handles all the intelligence that turns your cameras into an active security system. Professional installation takes a few hours; self-setup is available for confident users with clear setup guides provided.

scOS detects and responds to threats within seconds. When MotionX identifies suspicious activity, deterrent systems activate immediately—lights, sounds, and visual alerts trigger instantly to startle intruders and make them flee. Professional monitoring can dispatch emergency services within minutes if needed. In Nottingham where property crime response time matters, scOS's speed gives you a real advantage. Every second counts, and scOS delivers.

Professional installation is available and recommended for most homeowners. Our technicians handle camera positioning, Intelligence Hub setup, network configuration, and integration with your existing systems. They ensure optimal coverage and performance. If you're tech-confident, self-setup is an option—we provide detailed guides and support. Whether professional or self-setup, we're here to help get your scOS system running perfectly from day one.

scOS requires an active internet connection for AI features and professional monitoring. If your connection drops, local camera recording continues on the Intelligence Hub, but threat detection, deterrence, and emergency response won't work until your connection is restored. Most Nottingham homes have reliable broadband, and we can advise on backup connectivity options during setup. Your security depends on consistent internet, which is why we help you ensure a stable connection.

scOS pricing is simple: from 63p per day per camera, with no long contracts. You pay only for what you use. Professional installation is available at a separate fee. No surprise charges, no recurring fees beyond your daily camera cost. Most Nottingham homes with 2-4 cameras find scOS highly affordable compared to traditional monitoring services that charge £20+ monthly.

Yes. Many landlords in Nottingham choose scOS for rental properties because it's flexible, affordable, and portable. If you upgrade properties or change tenants, you can relocate your Intelligence Hub and cameras. No long-term contracts mean you're not locked in. Professional management features let you monitor your investment properties remotely while respecting tenant privacy.

MotionX learns your property over time, reducing false alarms from pets, trees, or passing traffic. When an alarm is triggered, you receive real-time alerts and can view live footage immediately to assess the situation. Professional monitoring features allow direct confirmation before emergency services are dispatched. In Nottingham, you control your response—scOS provides the intelligence, you make the decisions.
