Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records footage that you usually only look at after a crime has occurred. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. The key is our MotionX technology, which ignores 'noise' like wind, spiders, or animals, and focuses entirely on 'important activity'—specifically human behaviour. When scOS detects a person on your property, it doesn't just record; it takes action. Using external IoT speakers and automatic lights, it warns the intruder that they've been spotted, stopping the crime before it can escalate.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and compatible with most professional wired IP cameras, such as those from Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If you already have a system at your Skelmanthorpe home, our professional UK installers can often integrate it. During the 4-6 hour installation, we connect your cameras to our scOS Intelligence Hub, which provides the AI 'brain' needed to turn your existing passive cameras into a proactive, intelligent security network.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic your home's natural activity patterns, making it look occupied even when you're away. Second is MotionX, which identifies suspicious people even if they are trying to hide their faces or change their shape. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected, scOS triggers external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and turns on automatic lights. This tells the intruder that the house is protected by an active AI system that is responding to them in real-time.

Your privacy is our top priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. We use a hybrid processing model where the scOS Intelligence Hub on your property handles the AI analysis locally. This ensures your private footage stays on your premises. Only when a security event is triggered is the data escalated to our secure UK cloud for your remote access. We never sell your data, ensuring your home's security remains private.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only monitors your front door. It tells you someone is there after they've already arrived. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary and detecting threats before they reach your door. While a doorbell might record a theft, scOS is designed to prevent it. With its AI-driven voice deterrents and automatic lighting, scOS actively defends your property, providing a much higher level of security than a simple doorbell camera ever could.

Skelmanthorpe's stone-built homes and traditional layouts can sometimes create 'blind spots' for standard security systems. scOS's MotionX technology is designed to handle complex environments, accurately detecting human activity even in shadowed areas or around corners. Our professional UK installation team will strategically place your cameras to ensure full coverage of your property, providing a comprehensive defence that leaves no room for intruders to hide.

Vehicle theft is a concern in many West Yorkshire villages. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which checks the registration of any car entering your driveway against the DVLA database. It can identify cloned plates or suspicious vehicles that don't belong. You can even ask 'scOS Director' (our conversational AI) 'What cars have been on the drive today?' to get an instant report, helping you keep a close eye on any unusual vehicle activity around your Skelmanthorpe home.

scOS is designed for the modern homeowner. You can ask our conversational AI, 'scOS Director,' natural questions like 'Was there anyone in the garden today?' or 'What time did the delivery arrive?' It will give you a clear, spoken or text-based summary of the day's events. This makes managing your home security as easy as having a conversation, removing the need to scroll through hours of 'empty' footage to find the one clip that matters.
