Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records a crime while it happens, often leaving you with grainy footage of a masked intruder after the damage is done. scOS transforms your security into a proactive intelligence system using our proprietary MotionX technology. Unlike standard systems that rely on 'motion masks' and frequently trigger false alarms from spiders or wind, MotionX identifies 'important activity' only. It recognises people regardless of their movement or if they are attempting to hide their figure, and it auto-detects your property boundaries without any manual setup. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with escalating light and voice responses to stop the intruder before they reach your door.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can breathe new life into your existing hardware. If you have a professional, wired IP camera system—such as Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti—our Intelligence Hub can likely integrate with it. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure compatibility. By connecting your existing cameras to the scOS ecosystem, you upgrade them from 'dumb' recording devices into an intelligent, proactive network. This allows you to benefit from our advanced AI features like MotionX and DVLA vehicle recognition without the need for a complete hardware overhaul, provided your cameras meet the necessary technical standards.

scOS employs a sophisticated, multi-layered approach to deterrence that begins long before a criminal approaches your home. The first line of defence is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your home's normal activity patterns and simulates them while you're away, making the property appear occupied. If a trespasser does enter your grounds, our MotionX technology instantly identifies them as a person, even if they are wearing a mask or hood. At this point, the system initiates an active intervention: external IoT speakers deliver AI-generated voice warnings while smart lighting provides instant illumination. These responses are escalating; the longer a threat persists, the more assertive the system becomes, effectively convincing the intruder that they have been spotted by a live guard.

At scOS, we take a 'privacy by design' approach to your security. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is processed and stored right here in the UK in GDPR-compliant data centres. Unlike many competitors who rely solely on the cloud, scOS uses a hybrid model: our Intelligence Hub processes data locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud for advanced AI analysis and remote access. Your data remains entirely yours; we never sell your information or footage to third parties. You have full control over your recordings, which are stored for up to 14 days, ensuring you have the evidence you need while maintaining the highest standards of digital privacy.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it tells you who is at the door once they've already arrived, which is often too late to prevent a crime. scOS is a comprehensive property intelligence system designed to stop crime before it happens. While a doorbell covers a few square metres, scOS monitors your entire property boundary using AI that understands the difference between a delivery driver and a suspicious loiterer. Furthermore, doorbells are often wireless and susceptible to signal jamming; scOS uses professional wired connections for 'un-jammable' reliability. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, scOS provides a ring of protection around your whole home, rather than just a single entry point.

Rudloe’s proximity to major employers and the MOD sites in Corsham means many residents are away during the day. Our Presence Simulation is perfect for this; it doesn't just turn lights on and off on a timer. Instead, it uses AI to mimic your actual household patterns—opening curtains, toggling lights in different rooms, and even simulating the sounds of a busy home. This makes your property a 'hard target' by convincing potential burglars that someone is always home, even when you're at work or commuting along the A4.

Wiltshire Police often deal with rural thefts, and scOS is designed to provide the specific evidence they need. Our system includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs every registration plate that enters your property. If a crime occurs, you can provide the police with verified plate data and high-definition footage that has already been categorised by our AI. Because scOS records 24/7 and stores data for two weeks, you have a robust digital paper trail that is far more useful for investigations than the fragmented clips provided by standard smart cameras.

Yes. Our MotionX technology is specifically designed to ignore the 'noise' of rural life. In a village like Rudloe, you likely have birds, foxes, or wind-blown foliage that would trigger constant false alarms on a standard system. MotionX ignores these entirely, focusing only on 'important activity'—specifically human and vehicle movement. It can even recognise a person if they are trying to hide their shape or are partially obscured by garden shrubbery. This means when your phone pings, you know it’s something that actually requires your attention.
