Traditional CCTV is a digital witness; it records your loss so you can watch it later. scOS is a digital bodyguard. Our MotionX technology is the core difference; unlike standard systems that trigger on any movement like spiders, wind, or shadows, MotionX identifies "important activity." It recognises people regardless of their shape or if they are trying to hide. Because it understands the context of your property, it doesn't need you to draw messy "motion zones." It works out of the box to provide zero false alarms, meaning when you get an alert, it actually matters. Most importantly, scOS doesn't just watch; it acts, providing a proactive response that passive systems simply cannot match.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti, our Intelligence Hub can often transform them from "dumb" recording devices into proactive AI sensors. During our professional UK installation—which typically takes 4 to 6 hours—our engineers will assess your current hardware. We prefer wired connections over wireless because they are more reliable and cannot be defeated by the "WiFi jammers" increasingly used by modern burglars. By integrating your current cameras, you get elite AI protection without necessarily needing to replace all your hardware, making the upgrade to true home intelligence both sustainable and cost-effective.

scOS uses a three-layer proactive strategy. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your internal lighting and activity patterns to make the home look occupied when you're out, which is the best way to stop a burglar from even choosing your house. Second is MotionX detection: our AI identifies suspicious behaviour at the boundary of your property, even if the person is wearing a mask or hood. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just send a notification. It triggers external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and activates instant illumination. These escalating responses are designed to make the intruder realise they've been spotted by an intelligent system, forcing them to flee before they ever touch a door or window.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and escalated to our secure UK data centres when necessary. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible via our secure app from anywhere in the world. Because we use both local and cloud processing, you get the speed of local intelligence with the backup and accessibility of the cloud, all kept within British jurisdiction.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or stolen a package. scOS is a whole-property intelligence system. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire property boundary. More importantly, a doorbell is passive—it might record a crime, but it rarely stops one. scOS is designed to intervene. By detecting a trespasser the moment they step onto your driveway and using voice deterrents and light, scOS stops the crime from happening in the first place. It’s the difference between seeing a thief and making sure the thief never gets close.

Pease Pottage's location near the M23 and the services means there is a high volume of transient vehicles. Our DVLA Vehicle Recognition is a vital tool here; it automatically reads number plates and checks them against the DVLA database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or a history of suspicious activity enters your property, scOS can alert you immediately. This allows you to distinguish between a lost driver turning around and a genuine threat scouting your home, providing peace of mind in a high-traffic area.

Yes, scOS is designed to be a "good neighbour." While it uses voice warnings and lights to deter intruders, these are only triggered when the AI is 100% certain of a threat on your private property. Because MotionX eliminates false alarms from passing cars on the A23 or pedestrians on the pavement, your neighbours won't be disturbed by unnecessary alerts. The system is precise, escalating its response only when someone actually crosses your property boundary.

scOS is a hybrid system that uses both local and cloud processing. The Intelligence Hub in your home handles the immediate AI analysis and deterrent triggers locally, ensuring an instant response even if your internet connection is momentarily unstable. It then escalates data to our secure UK cloud for storage and remote access. This dual-layer approach provides the fastest possible protection while ensuring your footage is safely backed up and accessible from anywhere.
