Traditional CCTV is a passive tool; it records what happens but doesn't stop it. Most systems also suffer from frequent false alarms, which can be a nuisance in a quiet village like Sedlescombe. scOS is different because it is proactive. It uses MotionX AI to focus only on 'important activity'—human movement—while ignoring animals, wind, and shadows. Unlike standard systems, scOS automatically detects your property boundaries and uses active intervention, such as lights and voice warnings from external speakers, to deter criminals before they even reach your home. It’s like having a digital security guard protecting your property 24/7.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and can be integrated with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. During our professional installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our UK-based engineers will assess your current setup and connect it to our Intelligence Hub. This adds our advanced AI capabilities to your existing cameras, giving you features like DVLA vehicle recognition and presence simulation without the cost of a full hardware replacement. It’s an efficient way for Sedlescombe residents to upgrade their home security to the latest AI standards.

scOS uses a powerful three-layer deterrent system. First, 'Presence Simulation' makes your home look occupied when you're away by mimicking your usual internal lighting patterns. Second, our MotionX AI detects intruders the moment they cross your boundary, even if they are disguised or moving stealthily. Third, the system uses 'Active Intervention.' If a threat is confirmed, scOS triggers external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and activates bright security lights. This immediate, intelligent response signals to any intruder that they are being actively monitored, which is usually enough to make them flee before any harm is done.

We take your privacy very seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for speed and privacy, only using the cloud for secure remote access and advanced AI processing. We are fully GDPR compliant and never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks. This ensures that your private life in Sedlescombe stays private, while your property remains under the best possible protection.

A video doorbell only covers your front door and can be easily disabled by WiFi jammers. scOS provides comprehensive, property-wide protection, monitoring your entire boundary including side gates and gardens. Our system is hardwired, making it immune to the jamming techniques used by modern criminals. While a doorbell is reactive—telling you someone is there—scOS is proactive, designed to stop a criminal before they even get to your door. With scOS Director, you can even ask your system questions like 'Has anyone been near the side gate today?' for a level of intelligence no doorbell can match.

Sedlescombe’s proximity to the A21 makes it a target for 'drive-by' opportunistic theft, where criminals scout properties and make a quick getaway. scOS features DVLA-linked vehicle recognition, which can identify and log the registration plates of vehicles entering your property. It can even flag cloned plates or vehicles that don't belong. This data is invaluable for Sussex Police and provides an extra layer of protection against the specific types of vehicle-related crime that can occur near major transit routes like the A21.

Sedlescombe is a safe village, but its low crime rate can sometimes lead to complacency. Sussex Police does an excellent job, but they have a large and diverse area to cover. scOS acts as a proactive first line of defence, deterring criminals before they can commit a crime. If an incident does occur, our 24/7 high-definition recording and DVLA-linked vehicle recognition provide the police with high-quality, actionable evidence. By installing scOS, you are not only protecting your own home but also contributing to the overall safety of the Sedlescombe community.

Sedlescombe is one of the most picturesque villages in Sussex, and we understand that security hardware needs to be installed with care. Our professional UK installers are experts at discreetly fitting cameras and speakers to ensure they provide maximum coverage without detracting from your home's character. Because scOS is brand-agnostic, we can often use smaller, more aesthetic cameras that blend into the architecture. The real power of scOS is in its AI software, which provides world-class protection without the need for bulky, industrial-looking equipment.
