Traditional CCTV is passive; it records a crime while it happens, often leaving you with nothing but footage of a masked intruder. scOS is proactive, using our MotionX technology to identify "important activity"—like a person loitering or a vehicle entering your drive—rather than just motion. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks, scOS automatically detects your property boundaries and uses external IoT speakers and lighting to intervene the moment a threat is detected, stopping crime before it starts.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, or Reolink, our Intelligence Hub can often transform them into an AI-powered system. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure it meets the technical requirements to support our advanced MotionX and vehicle recognition features.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic human activity patterns inside your home, making it look occupied even when you're away. Second, our MotionX technology spots suspicious behaviour regardless of how an intruder moves or if they are wearing a mask. Finally, if a threat persists, the system triggers an escalating response: instant illumination from external lights and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers to let the intruder know they are being monitored.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in full compliance with GDPR. Unlike many "smart" home brands, we never sell your data. The system uses a hybrid approach where the Intelligence Hub processes data locally for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure cloud for advanced analysis and remote access, ensuring you remain in total control of your footage.

A video doorbell only tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a basic motion sensor. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, recognises vehicles via DVLA databases, and detects suspicious activity like covered faces long before they reach your front door. While a doorbell is a reactive tool, scOS is a complete security solution designed to prevent a break-in from ever occurring.

Large rural estates in Bracknell Forest often have complex boundaries that are hard to monitor with traditional sensors. scOS uses AI to automatically detect your property lines. This means the system knows exactly when someone has stepped onto your land, triggering a proactive response immediately, rather than waiting for them to reach the house itself.

High-value vehicles are a common target in affluent rural areas. scOS uses DVLA Vehicle Recognition to monitor every car that approaches your property. If an unrecognised vehicle loiters or if the system detects someone approaching your cars at night, it can trigger instant lighting and a voice warning, effectively scaring off thieves before they can attempt a theft.

scOS Director is our conversational AI. For busy professionals in the Bracknell tech corridor, it’s the perfect tool. You can simply ask your phone, "Has anyone been near the garage today?" or "Show me any vehicles that arrived while I was at work," and the system will provide an instant, intelligent summary of the day's events.

Many sophisticated burglars now use masks or hoods to avoid identification. scOS features Covered Face Detection, which flags suspicious concealment. Because our AI focuses on skeletal movement and behaviour, it can identify a human threat even if their face is hidden, ensuring you are alerted to the danger immediately.
