Traditional CCTV is passive; it records a crime while it happens so you can watch the footage later. scOS is proactive. Our MotionX technology doesn't just detect motion; it identifies "important activity," such as a person approaching your boundary, while ignoring wind, animals, or spiders. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks, scOS auto-detects your property lines and uses external IoT speakers and lighting to intervene and deter intruders before they ever reach your door. It’s the difference between having a witness and having a digital security guard.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. We transform your "dumb" cameras into an intelligent network by connecting them to our Intelligence Hub, which provides the local processing power needed for our advanced AI features. This allows you to upgrade to world-class intelligence without the cost of replacing all your existing cameras.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to stop criminals. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your internal activity patterns and replicate them when you're away, making your home look occupied. Second, MotionX detection identifies a person the moment they cross your property boundary, regardless of whether they are wearing a mask or trying to hide their shape. Finally, the system uses active intervention: if a threat is detected, scOS triggers instant illumination and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers to let the intruder know they have been spotted and are being monitored.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all our data centres are located within the UK. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your data stays yours and is never sold to third parties. Our system uses a hybrid approach: the scOS Intelligence Hub processes video locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud for advanced analysis and remote access. You have total control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks.

A video doorbell only tells you someone is at the door—often when it's already too late. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. While a doorbell has a limited field of view and often relies on "dumb" motion sensing that triggers for every passing car, scOS monitors your entire boundary. It identifies threats at the edge of your property, provides escalating deterrents to stop them, and uses DVLA-linked vehicle recognition to flag suspicious cars. It’s a comprehensive security shield, not just a digital peephole.

With Phoenix Green's crime rate sitting above the national average, a passive system isn't enough. scOS is designed for high-risk areas by providing immediate, escalating responses. The moment our MotionX AI detects a person on your property, it can trigger external voice warnings and floodlights. This immediate intervention is proven to deter criminals who are looking for an easy target, effectively stopping a crime before it results in property damage or theft.

The A30 corridor provides easy access for criminals targeting homes in Phoenix Green. scOS counters this with DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which automatically scans the registration plates of any vehicle entering your property. It checks these against the DVLA database to identify cloned plates or vehicles that don't match their registered description. This intelligence is processed locally and can alert you the moment an unidentified or suspicious vehicle pulls into your drive.

Burglars often look for signs of an empty house, especially in commuter villages like Phoenix Green. Our Presence Simulation goes beyond simple light timers; it uses AI to learn your actual habits—when you move between rooms, which lights you use, and when. When you're away, scOS replicates these patterns realistically. This makes your home appear occupied to anyone scouting the area, providing a powerful first line of defence that prevents your home from being targeted in the first place.
