Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your home being burgled, whereas scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to stop crime before it happens. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every spider web or gust of wind, our MotionX technology uses advanced AI to identify 'important activity' only, such as a person approaching your property. It requires no manual 'tripwires' or 'zones' because it automatically understands your property boundaries. Most importantly, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with automatic light responses and voice deterrents to scare off intruders before they reach your door.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a truly intelligent security network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure compatibility. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, you gain access to MotionX detection, presence simulation, and our conversational AI, scOS Director, without needing to replace your entire infrastructure.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First, our 'Presence Simulation' makes your home appear occupied even when you're away by simulating natural human activity patterns inside the house. Second, our MotionX AI constantly monitors for suspicious behaviour, recognising people regardless of whether they are wearing masks or trying to hide their figure. Finally, if a threat is detected, the system initiates an escalating response: instant illumination from external lights followed by authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This proactive sequence is designed to convince a criminal that they have been spotted by a human guard, forcing them to retreat.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is a 100% UK-based company. All data processing begins locally on your Intelligence Hub before escalating to our secure UK-based cloud servers for advanced analysis. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your footage and data belong solely to you and are never sold to third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and can be accessed securely from anywhere in the world via our encrypted app.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at your door, often after they've already caused damage or stolen a package. scOS is a comprehensive property-wide intelligence system that monitors your entire boundary, not just the front step. While doorbells often suffer from lag and 'false positives' from passing cars, scOS uses MotionX to ignore irrelevant movement and focus on genuine threats. By detecting an intruder the moment they step onto your driveway or garden, scOS can intervene and stop the crime from happening, rather than just providing a video of the event after the fact.

Sandwich's medieval streets and historic architecture are beautiful but can be challenging for modern security. Our professional UK installers are experts at fitting wired systems discreetly in period properties, ensuring that your home's aesthetic is preserved while providing state-of-the-art AI protection. We use wired connections because they are more reliable and cannot be jammed like wireless alternatives.

As a popular destination for tourists and golfers, Sandwich sees a lot of transient footfall. Our MotionX AI is specifically designed to ignore people on public footpaths and only trigger when someone crosses your actual property boundary. This means you won't be plagued by false alarms from visitors, but you will be alerted the moment someone steps onto your private land.

Yes, scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which is perfect for monitoring your driveway. It can identify every car that enters your property and check it against the national database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or a suspicious history is detected, the system alerts you immediately, providing a vital layer of protection against organised car theft.
