Every time you leave home, there's that nagging worry. Did I lock up properly? Is someone watching the house? You shouldn't have to feel anxious about your own home.
Something happened in the garden last night. Now you're scrubbing through 8 hours of footage trying to find 30 seconds of activity. Life's too short for this.
Your phone buzzes constantly. A cat. Cobwebs. Headlights. After a while you stop checking, which defeats the entire point of having cameras.
Not motion. Not shadows. scOS detects the kind of activity a trained security guard would notice. When your phone buzzes, it matters.
Family, friends, the builder—scOS learns who belongs. No repetitive alerts for familiar faces. Only strangers trigger attention.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Pickmere
Traditional CCTV is passive; it records crime as it happens but does nothing to prevent it. scOS is proactive home intelligence. It uses MotionX, an AI engine that focuses on 'important activity,' ignoring false alarms from wind, animals, or shadows. Unlike other systems, scOS doesn't require you to draw 'zones'; it automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS intervenes with automatic light responses and AI voice warnings from external IoT speakers. It stops the intruder before they reach your door, transforming your security from a witness into a deterrent.
Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation (4-6 hours), we connect your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub. This instantly upgrades your current setup with our MotionX AI, DVLA vehicle recognition, and proactive deterrents. It’s a perfect way for Pickmere residents to get state-of-the-art AI security without needing to replace their entire existing camera network.
scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics human activity patterns inside your home to make it look occupied when you're away. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies human threats the moment they cross your boundary, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected, the system triggers external lights and escalating voice warnings. This combination ensures that any intruder knows they have been spotted by an intelligent system, usually causing them to leave immediately.
Your privacy is our top priority. scOS is 100% UK-based, and all data is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. We use a hybrid processing model: the Intelligence Hub in your home handles immediate AI analysis locally, while our UK cloud handles storage and remote access. We never sell your data, and you have total control over your footage. With 24/7 recording and up to two weeks of storage, you can access your home's intelligence from anywhere, knowing it's protected by British privacy standards.
A video doorbell is a reactive device that only sees what's directly in front of it. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary and detecting threats before they reach the house. Doorbells are often wireless and can be jammed; scOS uses professional wired connections for 100% reliability. For Pickmere residents, scOS offers a proactive shield for the entire property, not just a notification that someone is at the front door.
Pickmere is a beautiful, quiet village, but its rural nature can make it a target for criminals who think they won't be seen. scOS is designed for this environment; our MotionX AI ignores local wildlife like foxes or owls, focusing only on human threats. Our Presence Simulation is also vital here, making your home look occupied even when the village is quiet. It provides an elite level of protection that respects the peace of Pickmere while ensuring your home is never an easy target.
Pickmere Lake attracts many visitors, and while most are welcome, it can lead to increased 'scouting' of nearby properties. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs every vehicle that enters your property's vicinity. It can identify suspicious vehicles that have been seen multiple times or those with cloned plates. This early warning is crucial for residents near popular local landmarks, ensuring you're alerted to any unusual activity before it becomes a problem.
scOS Director is our conversational AI that lets you talk to your home security. Instead of searching through hours of footage, you can ask, 'Was there anyone in the garden last night?' or 'Did the delivery arrive?' It understands natural language and provides instant answers. For Pickmere residents, this saves time and provides immediate clarity on what's happening at home, whether you're out for a walk or away on holiday.
