Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later, but it does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses our proprietary MotionX technology to identify 'important activity'—like a person lurking near your windows—while ignoring irrelevant motion like swaying trees or foxes. Unlike standard systems that rely on easily-fooled motion masks, scOS automatically understands your property boundaries and intervenes the moment a threat is detected. It doesn't just watch; it acts by triggering lights and voice warnings to deter intruders before they even reach your door, providing a level of security that old-fashioned cameras simply cannot match.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence security network. We work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes between 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure compatibility. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we can apply our advanced AI, such as MotionX and DVLA vehicle recognition, to your current setup, saving you the cost of a full hardware replacement while vastly upgrading your protection.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy designed to stop criminals at every stage of an attempted break-in. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your home's normal activity patterns and mimics them when you're away, making the house appear occupied. Second, our MotionX technology spots suspicious behaviour instantly, even if an intruder is wearing a mask or trying to hide their figure. Finally, the system initiates an Active Intervention: if a threat persists, scOS triggers external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and floods the area with light. This proactive approach ensures that criminals feel watched and exposed, usually forcing them to flee before any damage is done.

Your privacy is our absolute priority, which is why scOS is a 100% UK-based operation. Unlike many competitors who send your footage to overseas servers, all scOS data is processed through our UK-based data centres and is fully GDPR compliant. We use a hybrid processing model where the Intelligence Hub in your home handles local tasks, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced AI analysis. You retain full control over your data at all times; we never sell your information, and your 24/7 recordings are stored securely for up to two weeks, accessible only by you through our encrypted app.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it tells you who is at the door, but it rarely stops a determined criminal from entering through a side window or targeting your car. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring every angle of your home simultaneously. While a doorbell might send you a notification while you're asleep, scOS is already working to stop the crime through automatic light responses and voice deterrents. It’s the difference between having a record of a package being stolen and having a system that prevents the thief from ever stepping onto your driveway in the first place.

Pentre Maelor's proximity to the Wrexham Industrial Estate can lead to increased foot traffic and vehicle movement. scOS's MotionX technology is perfect for this environment, as it can distinguish between normal 'passer-by' activity and someone actually targeting your property. It ignores the noise of the industrial estate and only alerts you—and intervenes—when someone crosses your property boundary with suspicious intent.

With a local crime rate significantly higher than the national average, Pentre Maelor residents need a system that doesn't just alert them but actually stops the crime. scOS's escalating response is key here: if an intruder doesn't leave after the initial light response, the system uses voice warnings to make it clear they are being monitored by AI. This proactive intervention is the most effective way to protect your home in a high-crime area.

Yes, scOS is a professional-grade wired system. This is crucial in areas where criminals may use signal jammers to disable wireless security cameras. By using physical wires, scOS ensures that your security remains 100% operational at all times, providing the reliable protection that Pentre Maelor families deserve.
