Every time you leave home, there's that nagging worry. Did I lock up properly? Is someone watching the house? You shouldn't have to feel anxious about your own home.
Something happened in the garden last night. Now you're scrubbing through 8 hours of footage trying to find 30 seconds of activity. Life's too short for this.
Your phone buzzes constantly. A cat. Cobwebs. Headlights. After a while you stop checking, which defeats the entire point of having cameras.
Not motion. Not shadows. scOS detects the kind of activity a trained security guard would notice. When your phone buzzes, it matters.
Family, friends, the builder—scOS learns who belongs. No repetitive alerts for familiar faces. Only strangers trigger attention.
Message scOS for pre-edited clips across all cameras, or ask when the bin was last emptied. It's like having staff you can actually talk to.
No hidden fees. No premium tiers. All features included from day one.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Selby
Standard CCTV is reactive—it only records what happens. scOS is proactive. Our MotionX AI is the key; it identifies 'important activity' (like a person approaching your house) and ignores 'noise' (like wind or animals). It doesn't need motion masks and has zero false alarms. Most importantly, scOS actively intervenes. If an intruder is detected, it uses lights and voice warnings to stop them before they can break in, rather than just recording the event.
Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and compatible with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. Our UK-based engineers can integrate your existing cameras into our Intelligence Hub during a single-day installation. This upgrades your current system with our advanced AI features, such as person recognition and proactive deterrents, without you needing to buy all new camera hardware for your Selby home.
scOS uses three layers of AI protection. First, Presence Simulation mimics your internal activity patterns to make your home look occupied when you're away. Second, MotionX detection identifies people even if they're wearing masks or hoods. Third, Active Intervention triggers external lights and voice warnings from IoT speakers when a threat is detected. This escalating response makes it clear to any criminal that they've been spotted, causing them to flee before they reach your home.
Your data is safe and stays in the UK. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and we use secure UK data centres for all our cloud processing. We are fully GDPR compliant and never sell your data. Most of the intelligence is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub, ensuring your privacy. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app.
A video doorbell only watches your front door and is often reactive. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring all your boundaries and outbuildings. In a market town like Selby, where properties often have larger gardens or are in more rural settings, a doorbell isn't enough. scOS is a professional, wired system that proactively stops crime before it happens, offering much more comprehensive protection than a simple doorbell camera.
Selby's mix of town and rural properties means boundaries can be complex. scOS features Automatic Property Boundary Detection. Our AI automatically identifies your property lines, so you don't have to draw manual zones. This is particularly useful for Selby residents with larger gardens or irregular plots. The system knows exactly where your land ends, ensuring it only triggers a response when someone actually steps onto your property, while ignoring activity on the public pavement or neighbouring land.
scOS Director is our conversational AI that lets you talk to your home security system. You can ask it questions like, 'Has anyone been near the garage today?' or 'What time did the delivery arrive?' It understands natural language and gives you an instant summary, so you don't have to scroll through hours of footage. It’s a convenient way for Selby residents to stay informed about their property's security with minimal effort.
scOS is specifically designed to detect suspicious behaviour, including people wearing hoods, balaclavas, or masks. Our MotionX AI doesn't rely on facial recognition; instead, it looks at movement patterns and the fact that a face is being intentionally concealed. If someone approaches your home with their face covered, scOS recognises this as a high-priority threat and can immediately trigger its escalating voice and light deterrents to stop them in their tracks.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
