Traditional CCTV is a passive tool; it records what happened but doesn't stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. Using our MotionX technology, it identifies 'important activity'—specifically human threats—while ignoring the wind, pets, and shadows that cause false alarms on standard systems. There's no need for you to draw motion masks; the AI understands your property boundaries automatically. Most importantly, scOS doesn't just watch; it reacts. When a threat is detected, it uses lights and voice warnings to deter the intruder in real-time, stopping the crime before it starts.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic. If you already have a wired IP camera system from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink at your Somerton home, we can often integrate them into our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing cameras into an AI-powered security network. During our professional 4-6 hour installation, our UK-based engineers will assess your current hardware to ensure it can support our advanced features like DVLA vehicle recognition and covered face detection, giving you a massive security upgrade without needing to replace every camera.

We use a three-layered approach to keep your home safe. First is Presence Simulation, which is vital for Somerton's residents; it mimics your home's natural activity patterns to make it look occupied when you're out. Second is MotionX, our AI that detects human threats even if they are masked or trying to hide. Finally, if an intruder enters your property, scOS triggers an escalating response: instant illumination and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This immediate, AI-driven intervention is designed to scare off criminals before they can cause any damage.

Your data privacy is our top priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in full compliance with GDPR. Your footage is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and only sent to the cloud for advanced AI analysis or when you access it via our app. We never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks, ensuring your home's security data stays private and protected.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only covers your front door. In a historic town like Somerton, where homes often have unique layouts or side access, a doorbell isn't enough. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary and using AI to detect threats before they reach your door. Unlike a doorbell, which might just record a theft, scOS uses proactive measures like voice deterrents and vehicle recognition to prevent the crime from happening. It offers a level of security and intelligence that a simple doorbell camera cannot match.

Somerton is famous for its beautiful blue lias stone and historic architecture. We understand that residents want to protect their homes without compromising their aesthetic. Our professional UK installation is designed to be as discreet as possible. We use compact, high-quality cameras and ensure all wiring is hidden or blended with the building's features. Because our system is wired, it is much more reliable than wireless alternatives and doesn't require bulky battery packs. We work with you to ensure the installation respects the character of your Somerton home.

While Somerton has a lower crime rate than the national average, it's important not to be complacent. Opportunistic crime can happen anywhere, and being a quiet, affluent area can sometimes make it a target. scOS provides peace of mind by acting as a 24/7 digital guard. Our AI, scOS Director, learns what is 'normal' for your property, so it only alerts you to genuine anomalies. This proactive protection ensures that your home remains a safe haven, allowing you to enjoy the peace of Somerton without worry.

Somerton's narrow streets and market town layout can make vehicle security a challenge. scOS features integrated DVLA Vehicle Recognition. Our AI reads the number plates of vehicles approaching your property and checks them against the DVLA database. If a vehicle with cloned plates or a suspicious history is detected, the system can alert you immediately. This provides the Avon and Somerset Constabulary with high-quality, actionable intelligence, making your home a much harder target for mobile criminal gangs who might be scouting the area.
