Standard CCTV is a passive observer; it records what happens but doesn't intervene. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. The core difference is our MotionX technology, which focuses on 'important activity' rather than just motion. This means it won't be triggered by the wind across the Fens or animals in your garden. It identifies human presence with 100% accuracy and automatically understands your property boundaries without needing manual setup. When a threat is detected, scOS takes action with lights and voice warnings to deter the intruder before they can cause any damage, providing a level of protection that traditional cameras simply can't match.

Yes, scOS is brand agnostic and compatible with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have a camera system at your Sibsey home, we can often integrate it with our Intelligence Hub to add AI capabilities. During our professional UK installation, our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure it's suitable for our MotionX detection. We always use wired connections to ensure the highest level of reliability and to prevent the signal jamming that can affect wireless systems, ensuring your home remains protected 24/7.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your home's normal activity patterns when you're away, making it look like someone is always there. Second is our MotionX AI, which identifies suspicious human behaviour, even if an intruder is trying to hide their face or move stealthily. Third is Active Intervention: if someone enters your property, the system triggers automatic lights and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This immediate, intelligent response is designed to stop a criminal in their tracks and force them to leave your property immediately.

Your data privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model where our Intelligence Hub handles most of the work locally on your property. This ensures your data stays private and the system responds instantly. We only use our secure UK cloud for advanced AI tasks and to allow you to access your system remotely. We never sell your data, and you have full control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and is often reactive, only telling you someone is there after they've arrived. scOS provides intelligence for your entire property. It monitors your boundaries and uses AI to detect threats before they even reach your house. While a doorbell might show you a package being taken, scOS is designed to stop the thief from entering your property in the first place. It also eliminates the false alarms common with doorbells, focusing only on 'important activity' so you only get notified when it truly matters.

Sibsey is surrounded by valuable agricultural land, and we know that theft of farm machinery and tools is a concern in Lincolnshire. scOS is ideal for protecting outbuildings and yards. Our AI auto-detects these boundaries and can be set to provide escalating responses if someone is detected near your equipment at night. With DVLA Vehicle Recognition, the system can also flag unrecognised or suspicious vehicles entering your yard, giving you an extra layer of protection for your livelihood.

The flat Fenland landscape around Sibsey can sometimes make properties feel exposed. scOS's MotionX technology is perfect for this environment, as it can accurately detect human activity at a distance without being fooled by the wide-open spaces or moving crops. The system's proactive deterrents, like automatic lights and voice warnings, are particularly effective in quiet rural areas, as they immediately signal to any intruder that they have been spotted and that the property is actively defended.

Lincolnshire Police's Rural Crime Action Team does a great job, but response times in rural areas can be a challenge. scOS acts as your immediate first responder. By using presence simulation and active deterrents, the system often stops a crime before it even happens, reducing the need for police intervention. If an incident does occur, scOS provides high-quality, 24/7 recording and vehicle recognition data that can be vital for police investigations, helping to keep the Sibsey community safer.
