Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your misfortune for later review. scOS transforms your security into an active deterrent using MotionX technology, which distinguishes between 'important activity'—like a person lurking near your outbuildings—and irrelevant motion like swaying trees or foxes. Unlike standard systems that rely on easily bypassed motion masks, scOS automatically understands your property boundaries. It doesn't just watch; it intervenes with automated lighting and voice warnings the moment a genuine threat is detected, ensuring you aren't just documenting a crime, but preventing one entirely.

Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic, meaning it can turn your existing 'dumb' cameras into a sophisticated AI network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes just 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we can apply our advanced MotionX and vehicle recognition layers without the need for a total system overhaul.

scOS employs a sophisticated three-tier deterrent strategy. Firstly, Presence Simulation makes your home appear occupied by mimicking natural human activity patterns inside, which is the most effective way to discourage 'casing.' Secondly, our MotionX AI identifies suspicious behaviour at your property boundary, even if the intruder is wearing a mask or hood. Finally, if a threat is confirmed, the system initiates an escalating response: instant illumination followed by clear, authoritative warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive approach stops criminals long before they reach your front door.

We take a 'privacy-first' approach to your security. Your data is processed locally on your scOS Intelligence Hub before being securely escalated to our UK-based data centres. We are 100% UK-owned and operated, ensuring full GDPR compliance and that your private footage never leaves the country. Unlike many smart home brands, scOS will never sell your data to third parties. You retain total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it tells you someone is already at your door, which is often too late. scOS provides comprehensive property intelligence that covers your entire perimeter, including driveways and gardens. While a doorbell might capture a package thief in the act, scOS uses proactive AI to detect and deter an intruder the moment they step onto your land. It’s the difference between having a doorbell and having a virtual security guard who never sleeps.

Rural properties in Bridgend often face longer police response times due to their isolation. scOS mitigates this by providing immediate, autonomous intervention. The system doesn't wait for a human to see an alert; it automatically triggers lights and voice deterrents the moment a boundary is breached. This 'first response' capability is vital for rural homeowners, providing a proactive layer of protection that works instantly, even when the nearest patrol car is miles away.

MotionX is specifically engineered for rural environments like the Llynfi Valley. Traditional motion sensors are plagued by false alarms from livestock, wildlife, and wind-blown debris. Our AI ignores these distractions, focusing exclusively on 'important activity'—specifically human behaviour and vehicle movements. This means you won't be woken up by a stray sheep or a fox, but you will be alerted the second a person enters your property.

Protecting high-value machinery and outbuildings is a core strength of scOS. Our AI automatically detects your property boundaries, including detached garages or barns, without needing complex manual setup. With DVLA-linked vehicle recognition, the system can even identify unauthorised vehicles entering your yard, checking registrations against the national database to flag potential threats or cloned plates often used in rural thefts.
