Standard CCTV just watches; scOS acts. Using our proprietary MotionX technology, the system ignores the 'noise' of rural life—like swaying trees or foxes—and focuses exclusively on important activity. It requires no manual tripwires or zones because the AI automatically detects your property boundaries. When a person is detected where they shouldn't be, scOS doesn't just record them; it actively deters them using escalating light and voice responses.

In most cases, yes. scOS is brand-agnostic and works with the majority of wired IP camera brands like Hikvision, Axis, and Ubiquiti. If you already have cameras monitoring your South Gloucestershire property, our professional installers can integrate them with our Intelligence Hub. This saves you the cost of new hardware while upgrading your home to a proactive AI security system.

We use three layers of proactive defence. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your internal activity patterns to make your home look lived-in while you're away. Second, MotionX detection identifies intruders even if they are wearing balaclavas or hoods. Third, if someone enters your boundary, the system triggers external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and switches on powerful security lights, making it clear the property is intelligently protected.

We are a 100% UK-based company. Your data is processed locally on your scOS Intelligence Hub and backed up to secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring your private footage remains private. Unlike many competitors, we do not send your data abroad or sell it to third-party advertisers.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only covers your front door. For rural properties in South Gloucestershire, threats often come from side gates, gardens, or driveways. scOS monitors your entire property boundary, detecting and deterring intruders long before they ever reach your door. It’s the difference between seeing a crime happen and preventing it from occurring in the first place.

Rural properties are often targets for vehicle and machinery theft. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which checks the registration plates of vehicles entering your driveway against the national database. This can help identify cloned plates or suspicious vehicles that don't belong in your lane, providing an extra layer of security for your cars and equipment.

In rural areas, police response times can be longer than in urban centres. This makes scOS's proactive deterrents—like the voice warnings and light responses—even more critical. By stopping an intruder at the boundary, scOS reduces the reliance on an immediate police arrival, though it also provides high-quality evidence and real-time alerts to the Avon and Somerset Constabulary if needed.

MotionX is specifically designed to handle the challenges of rural environments. It ignores common false alarm triggers like spiders on the lens, birds, or wind-blown foliage. It focuses on 'important activity,' meaning it only alerts you when a human is detected, regardless of how they are moving or if they are trying to conceal their shape.
