Traditional CCTV is a digital witness; it records your car being stolen so you can show the police a grainy video later. scOS is a digital bodyguard. Our MotionX technology doesn't just see movement; it understands activity. While old systems plague you with alerts for spiders or swaying trees, scOS ignores the noise and focuses on "important activity." It automatically detects your property boundaries without you needing to draw complex zones. When a genuine threat is identified—like someone lurking near your side gate—scOS doesn't just watch. It intervenes. It can instantly flood the area with light and deliver a firm voice warning through external IoT speakers. This shift from passive recording to proactive intervention is what sets us apart. We don't just document crime; we aim to prevent it from happening in the first place, giving you a system that works out of the box with zero false alarms.

Yes, scOS is designed to be remarkably flexible. We are brand agnostic, meaning our Intelligence Hub can typically integrate with most existing wired IP camera systems, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. This allows you to transform your "dumb" cameras into a truly intelligent security network without the cost of a full hardware replacement. During our professional UK installation process, which usually takes between 4 and 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure compatibility. By connecting your existing cameras to the scOS Intelligence Hub, you gain access to our advanced MotionX detection, DVLA vehicle recognition, and proactive deterrent features. We prefer wired connections over wireless because they are significantly more reliable and cannot be defeated by the "WiFi jamming" techniques often used by modern burglars. If your current cameras are suitable, we’ll simply upgrade the "brain" of your system to scOS.

scOS uses a sophisticated, multi-layered approach to deterrence that begins long before a criminal reaches your door. The first layer is Presence Simulation. Unlike simple light timers, scOS learns your home's natural activity patterns and simulates them when you're away, making the house appear occupied to anyone watching from the street. The second layer is our MotionX detection. Our AI is trained to recognise human behaviour and suspicious patterns, even if an intruder is wearing a mask or trying to hide their silhouette. The moment the AI identifies a threat crossing your property boundary, the third layer—Active Intervention—kicks in. This involves an escalating response: first, internal lights may react to show "someone" is home, followed by external security lights illuminating the intruder. If they persist, external IoT speakers deliver clear voice warnings. This combination of looking occupied and providing an immediate, intelligent response makes your home a "hard target," usually causing criminals to move on before they even attempt a break-in.

Your privacy is a cornerstone of the scOS philosophy. Unlike many security companies that outsource data handling to international servers, scOS is 100% UK-based. This means your data is stored in secure UK data centres and is fully protected under UK GDPR regulations. We use a hybrid processing model: the scOS Intelligence Hub handles the majority of the heavy lifting locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for advanced analysis or remote access. Your footage and data belong to you; we never sell your information to third parties or use it for marketing. You have full control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and can be accessed securely from anywhere in the world via our app. By keeping everything within the UK—from our support teams to our data processing—we ensure that your home's security data remains private, secure, and under your control.

While video doorbells have become popular, they are fundamentally limited. A doorbell camera typically only monitors a small arc in front of your door and only alerts you once someone is already standing there. By that point, it’s often too late to prevent a crime. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. Our system monitors your entire perimeter, from side alleys to back gardens, detecting intruders the moment they step onto your land. More importantly, a doorbell is a passive device—it shows you who is there, but it doesn't stop them. scOS is proactive; it uses AI to detect threats and then uses light and voice deterrents to actively turn them away. While a doorbell might capture a video of a package being stolen, scOS is designed to ensure the thief never feels comfortable enough to approach your porch in the first place. It’s the difference between a doorbell and a comprehensive, AI-driven security guard for your entire home.

Raglan is a safe and peaceful village, but its location near the A40 and A449 makes it accessible to transient criminals who target rural properties. While the local crime rate is low, the impact of a single burglary can be devastating. scOS is about proactive prevention—stopping the crime before it happens. By installing scOS, you aren't just protecting your own home; you're contributing to the overall safety of the village by making it a difficult environment for criminals to operate in. It’s an investment in long-term peace of mind for you and your family.

Many Raglan residents have beautiful homes with traditional architecture. We understand that you don't want your house looking like a high-security facility. Our professional UK installation team is highly experienced in discreetly integrating scOS into all types of properties. We use high-quality, wired components that are much more reliable than wireless alternatives and can be hidden from view. The scOS Intelligence Hub itself is compact and can be tucked away in a cupboard or loft. Our goal is to provide elite-level security that is felt but not necessarily seen, preserving the character of your Raglan home.

scOS is designed to be incredibly user-friendly. You don't need to be a tech expert to use it. Our "scOS Director" feature allows you to interact with your system using natural language. You can simply ask, "Is everything okay at home?" or "What time did the gardener arrive?" and get a clear, conversational answer. The system is largely autonomous, handling the complex AI monitoring and deterrent responses on its own. We provide a simple app for remote access, but the day-to-day operation of scOS is designed to be seamless and stress-free, giving you the benefits of advanced AI without the technical headache.
