Traditional CCTV is passive; it records a crime while it happens but does nothing to stop it. scOS uses MotionX technology to identify 'important activity'—distinguishing between a person and a swaying branch or a cat—with zero false alarms. Instead of just watching, scOS proactively intervenes with lights and voice warnings the moment a boundary is crossed. Unlike older systems that require you to draw complex motion masks, our AI automatically understands your property lines and responds to threats in real-time.

Yes, scOS is brand agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional installation, we assess your current hardware to ensure it can be integrated into our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your 'dumb' cameras into a proactive AI security force without the need for a total hardware overhaul. If your current cameras are wired, we can likely make them significantly smarter.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First, Presence Simulation makes your home appear occupied by mimicking human activity patterns inside, even when you're away. Second, our MotionX AI detects suspicious behaviour the moment someone approaches your boundary, even if they are wearing a mask or hood. Finally, the system uses escalating responses: instant illumination followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers to let the intruder know they've been spotted. This combination stops most criminals before they even reach your door.

Your privacy is our priority. All scOS data is processed through our UK-based Intelligence Hub and stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your footage and data belong to you and are never sold to third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app. Unlike many competitors, we keep our operations and support entirely within the UK.

A video doorbell only tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already caused damage or stolen a parcel. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary and intervening before a criminal reaches the house. While a doorbell is a reactive tool, scOS is a proactive security guard that uses AI to detect anomalies and deter threats across your entire perimeter, ensuring your home is protected from every angle, not just the front step.

In isolated areas like Onley, criminals often feel they have the 'time and space' to work. scOS removes this advantage with MotionX, which detects important activity even in pitch-black rural conditions. The system doesn't just record; it uses external IoT speakers to deliver a voice deterrent, making it clear to any intruder that they are being monitored by an active AI system, not just a passive camera.

Onley's low property crime rate is excellent, but isolation can lead to complacency. scOS includes Presence Simulation, which is vital for rural homes. It learns your typical lighting and activity patterns to make your home look lived-in even when you're away, acting as a powerful deterrent to anyone scouting the area for empty properties.

Rural areas often suffer from poor WiFi, which is why scOS prioritises wired connections. Our professional UK installers use high-quality cabling that cannot be jammed by the 'WiFi jammers' increasingly used by modern burglars. This ensures your security remains 100% functional even if your local internet connection is targeted.
