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 Polegate
Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your property being violated; scOS is a proactive guardian that intervenes before a crime occurs. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity' only, such as a person approaching your home. It requires no manual 'tripwires' or 'zones' because it automatically understands your property boundaries. When a genuine threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record—it reacts with escalating light and voice deterrents to drive intruders away.
Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent security powerhouse. We work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure compatibility. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, you gain all the benefits of MotionX detection and proactive deterrents without needing to replace your entire infrastructure.
scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to stop criminals in their tracks. First, Presence Simulation makes your home appear occupied by mimicking natural human activity patterns inside, acting as a powerful passive deterrent while you're away. Second, our MotionX AI constantly monitors for suspicious behaviour, recognising people even if they try to hide their face or change their silhouette. Finally, if a threat persists, the system triggers active intervention: external IoT speakers deliver AI-generated voice warnings while smart lighting illuminates the intruder, creating an escalating response that makes your home an impossible target.
Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. All data processing begins locally on your Intelligence Hub before escalating to our secure UK-based cloud servers for advanced analysis. We are fully GDPR compliant, and unlike many 'smart' home brands, we never sell your data to third parties. You retain full control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks, accessible only by you through our secure app from anywhere in the world.
A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at the door; scOS is a comprehensive intelligence system that protects your entire property. Doorbells often suffer from 'notification fatigue' due to false alarms and can be easily bypassed by entering through a side gate or window. scOS provides 360-degree protection, using MotionX to detect intruders anywhere on your land and proactively deterring them before they even reach your door. It’s the difference between seeing a crime happen and preventing it from occurring in the first place.
Polegate's position as a gateway to the South Downs and its proximity to the A27 can make it a target for opportunistic theft. scOS is designed to counter this by providing a proactive deterrent. Our system doesn't just record; it uses AI to identify suspicious behaviour and intervenes with lights and voice warnings, making your home a difficult target for anyone scouting the area.
Presence Simulation is perfect for Polegate residents who enjoy weekends away or holidays. The system uses AI to learn your normal home patterns and replicates them—turning lights on and off and simulating activity—so your home never looks empty. This is the most effective way to discourage burglars from choosing your property.
scOS Director is an incredibly user-friendly conversational AI. You don't need to be a tech expert; you can simply ask questions like, 'Is the back door clear?' or 'Who was here this morning?' It provides clear, natural language answers, making it easy for everyone in the family to stay secure and informed.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
