Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your property being violated, whereas scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent crime before it happens. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity' only. It requires no manual zones or tripwires; it automatically understands your property boundaries and recognises human behaviour, ensuring zero false alarms. When a genuine threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch—it intervenes with lights and voice deterrents to stop intruders in their tracks.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a world-class intelligence network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure compatibility. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, you gain all the benefits of MotionX detection and scOS Director without needing to replace your entire infrastructure.

scOS employs a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your internal activity patterns and replicate them when you're away, making your home appear occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour or concealed faces the moment someone approaches your boundary. Finally, the system uses active intervention: if a threat persists, scOS triggers external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and instant illumination. Unlike a standard alarm that rings after a break-in, scOS makes your home an unattractive target from the outset.

Your privacy is our absolute priority, which is why scOS is a 100% UK-based operation. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, all your video and intelligence data is processed through UK-based data centres and is fully GDPR compliant. We use a hybrid approach where the Intelligence Hub handles critical processing locally at your home for speed, only escalating to our secure UK cloud for advanced analysis and remote access. You retain full control over your data, and we never sell or share your personal information with third parties.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at your door; scOS is a proactive security system that protects your entire property. While doorbells have a limited field of view and often suffer from 'notification fatigue' due to false alarms, scOS monitors your full property boundary with 360-degree intelligence. It doesn't just show you a package being stolen—it detects the intruder at the edge of your driveway and uses voice deterrents to stop them before they reach the door. It’s the difference between having a doorbell and having a digital security guard.

While Old Trafford enjoys a lower crime rate than the national average, the high volume of visitors on match days at the stadium can provide cover for opportunistic thieves. scOS is specifically designed to filter out the 'noise' of a busy neighbourhood. Our MotionX technology ignores the crowds on the pavement and only alerts you if someone shows suspicious interest in your specific property or vehicles, ensuring you aren't pestered by constant notifications during busy periods.

Absolutely. scOS features DVLA-integrated vehicle recognition that checks registrations against official databases. In areas like Old Trafford, where street parking is at a premium, scOS can distinguish between your family cars and unknown vehicles loitering near your driveway. If a vehicle with cloned plates or a known suspicious history is detected, the system can alert you immediately, providing an extra layer of protection for your cars.

Yes, scOS is perfect for the urban-village feel of Old Trafford. Our AI automatically detects your property lines, meaning it knows exactly where your private land ends and the public pavement begins. You don't need to draw complex 'tripwires' or 'zones' in an app; the system understands the layout of your home and garden from the moment it's installed, providing instant, proactive protection without the setup headache.
