Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records footage but doesn't actively stop a crime. scOS is a proactive intelligence system that uses AI to monitor your property and intervene before a break-in occurs. Our MotionX technology is a major differentiator, focusing on 'important activity' and ignoring false alarms like wind, rain, or animals. Unlike standard systems, scOS doesn't require you to manually set up motion zones; it automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is identified, scOS reacts instantly with lights and voice deterrents, providing an active defence that traditional systems simply can't offer.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP camera systems, including brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional installation process, which takes about 4-6 hours, our UK-based engineers will integrate your current cameras with our Intelligence Hub. This hub adds AI capabilities to your existing hardware, enabling features like person recognition and proactive deterrents. This means you can upgrade to a state-of-the-art AI security system without the cost of a full hardware replacement, while benefiting from the reliability of a wired system over wireless alternatives.

scOS uses a three-layered deterrent strategy to protect your home. First is Presence Simulation: the AI learns your home's activity patterns and replicates them when you're away, making the house look occupied. Second is MotionX detection: the system identifies suspicious individuals the moment they cross your boundary, even if they are masked or disguised. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected, scOS uses external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and triggers automatic light responses. This combination of making the home look lived-in and providing a direct, vocal response to intruders is highly effective at stopping criminals in their tracks.

Your privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres in full compliance with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model: our Intelligence Hub handles most data locally on your property for speed and privacy, only using our secure cloud for advanced AI tasks and remote access. 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 and can be accessed securely through our app, ensuring your home life remains private.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only alerts you when someone is already at your door. For a home in Spratton, you need a system that covers your entire property, including driveways and side entrances. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, using MotionX to detect threats long before they reach your house. While a doorbell might show you a crime in progress, scOS is designed to stop it from happening. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, scOS offers a professional-grade security perimeter that a simple doorbell cannot provide.

Spratton is a popular village for commuters working in Northampton or further afield, which often leaves homes empty during the day. Our Presence Simulation is specifically designed for this lifestyle; it doesn't just use simple timers but uses AI to mimic your actual behaviour, making it impossible for a burglar to tell you're not home. Whether you're at the office or away for a weekend, scOS ensures your home looks active and occupied. If anyone does approach while you're out, the system's proactive voice deterrents will let them know the property is being actively monitored, providing peace of mind while you're away.

Yes, scOS features scOS Director, a conversational AI that makes managing your security as easy as having a conversation. You can ask the system questions in plain English, such as 'Was there anyone on the driveway last night?' or 'Did the delivery driver come today?' The AI will scan your footage and provide a clear summary, saving you from having to scroll through hours of video. This makes it incredibly easy for anyone to stay informed about their home's security, regardless of their technical ability. It’s like having a personal security assistant available 24/7.

Spratton is known for its beautiful period homes. Our professional UK-based engineers are experienced in working with a variety of property types and will ensure that the installation of scOS is as discreet as possible. We use wired connections for maximum reliability, but we take great care to hide cables and position cameras and IoT speakers so they don't detract from your home's aesthetic. During the 4-6 hour installation, we'll work with you to ensure the system provides complete coverage while respecting the character of your property.
