Standard CCTV is a passive observer that merely records a crime while it happens, often leaving you with nothing but grainy footage of a masked intruder. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses MotionX technology to understand 'important activity'—ignoring wind, animals, and spiders to focus on genuine threats with zero false alarms. Unlike traditional systems that require you to draw messy motion masks, scOS automatically detects your property boundaries and intervenes the moment a threat is identified, using lights and voice warnings to stop a crime before it starts.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-intelligence network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware and integrate it with our Intelligence Hub to unlock proactive AI features without needing a full hardware overhaul.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to keep your Rural Exeter home safe. First, Presence Simulation makes your home appear occupied by mimicking human activity patterns inside, acting as a primary deterrent when you're away. Second, our MotionX AI constantly monitors for important activity, recognising people even if they attempt to cover their faces or change their silhouette. Finally, if a threat persists, the system triggers an escalating response: instant illumination from security lights followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers to let the intruder know they are being watched.

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 data centres for advanced AI analysis. We are fully GDPR compliant, and unlike many international competitors, we never sell your data or allow third-party access; your footage and activity patterns remain entirely under your control, accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already tried the handle. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary and identifying suspicious behaviour long before someone reaches your front door. While a doorbell might capture a package theft, scOS is designed to prevent the theft from occurring in the first place by detecting the approach and intervening automatically.

With local crime rates in the rural fringes of Exeter exceeding the national average, a passive recording system is no longer sufficient. scOS is designed for high-risk areas, providing an escalating response that doesn't just record the intruder but actively works to drive them away. The combination of AI detection and immediate voice deterrents makes your home a 'hard target' that criminals will want to avoid.

scOS uses 'Person Recognition' to learn the normal behaviour of your family and frequent visitors. This allows the system to distinguish between a family member coming home late and a stranger loitering near your property. If an unknown person is detected exhibiting suspicious behaviour, the system can alert you immediately, providing a level of intelligence that standard motion sensors lack.

Rural properties often have multiple entry points. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which logs every vehicle registration that enters your driveway and checks it against the national database. This is particularly useful for identifying 'scoping' vehicles or cloned plates that may be linked to criminal activity in the wider Devon area.
