scOS is a proactive digital guard, whereas traditional CCTV is just a silent witness. In areas like Somercotes and Swanwick, where vehicle and property crime are a concern, you need a system that acts. Our MotionX technology focuses on 'important activity'—like a person approaching your driveway—and ignores false alarms from wind or animals. Unlike standard systems that require you to manually set up 'zones,' scOS automatically detects your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, it doesn't just record; it intervenes with automated lighting and voice warnings from external IoT speakers, stopping intruders before they reach your home.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras. If your home in Somercotes or Swanwick already has cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink, we can usually integrate them into our AI ecosystem. During your professional UK installation, our engineers will assess your current setup. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we transform them into an active, intelligent network capable of person recognition and proactive deterrence, providing a high-level upgrade without the need for a full hardware replacement.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation makes your home look occupied by mimicking your internal activity patterns when you're away, which is the best way to prevent being targeted. Second, our MotionX AI identifies intruders at your boundary, even if they are wearing masks or hoods. Third, we use Active Intervention. If an intruder enters your property, the system triggers instant lighting and authoritative voice warnings via external IoT speakers. This escalating response is designed to startle and deter criminals, making them realise the property is actively guarded and causing them to flee.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK-based data centres in full compliance with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model: the Intelligence Hub on your property handles immediate AI analysis for speed and privacy, while our secure UK cloud handles advanced processing and remote access. We never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your recordings, with up to 14 days of 24/7 footage accessible only to you through our secure app.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and is often reactive, notifying you after someone is already there. In Somercotes and Swanwick, where properties often have driveways or side access, a doorbell camera is easily bypassed. scOS provides whole-property protection, detecting intruders the moment they step onto your land. Unlike doorbells, which are often wireless and can be jammed, scOS uses a robust wired system. Most importantly, scOS is proactive; it uses voice and light deterrents to stop a criminal before they reach your door, providing a much higher level of security.

Being near the A38 and M1 makes Somercotes and Swanwick properties vulnerable to quick-exit vehicle thefts. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies cars entering your property and checks their registrations against the national database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or one that doesn't belong to your family is detected, the system can alert you immediately. This proactive approach helps protect your vehicles on the driveway long before a thief has a chance to attempt a break-in, providing an essential layer of security for commuters.

scOS is designed to be 'set and forget.' Our MotionX technology is revolutionary because it works out of the box without the need for complex motion masks or user-defined zones. It is specifically trained to ignore common false alarm triggers like cobwebs, spiders, and wind-blown foliage. This means you won't be bothered by constant, irrelevant notifications on your phone. You only get alerted when there is 'important activity' that requires your attention, allowing you to trust your security system without it becoming a nuisance.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. You can ask questions like, 'Was there anyone on the driveway last night?' or 'Did the bin men come today?' The AI understands the context of your property and provides instant answers based on its 24/7 monitoring. It’s like having a digital security guard who has watched every second of your footage and can report back to you instantly, saving you from having to scroll through hours of video.
