Standard CCTV is passive; it records crime for the police to look at later. scOS is proactive. Our MotionX AI is a game-changer for Standlake residents because it eliminates the frustration of false alarms. Unlike traditional systems that trigger for every falling leaf or passing animal, MotionX identifies 'important activity'—specifically human and vehicle patterns. It automatically understands your property boundaries without you needing to draw complex zones. When a threat is detected, scOS takes action with lights and voice deterrents to stop the intruder in their tracks. It’s not just a camera; it’s an intelligent system that prevents crime rather than just filming it.

Yes, scOS is designed to be compatible with most professional-grade wired IP cameras. If you already have a system from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, or Reolink, we can usually integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This 'brain' upgrade transforms your existing cameras into a proactive AI network. During our professional UK installation—which takes about 4-6 hours—our engineers will assess your setup to ensure seamless integration. This allows Standlake homeowners to benefit from advanced AI features like Presence Simulation and DVLA Vehicle Recognition without the need for a complete hardware overhaul.

scOS uses three layers of deterrence to keep your home safe. First is Presence Simulation, which learns your daily habits and mimics them when you're away, making it look like someone is always home. Second is our MotionX detection, which accurately identifies people even if they are trying to hide their faces or change their silhouette. Finally, if someone enters your property, the system uses Active Intervention. This involves instant lighting and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This combination of looking occupied and providing an immediate, vocal response is incredibly effective at making criminals choose an easier target elsewhere.

We take your privacy seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. Unlike many smart home brands, we are fully GDPR compliant and never sell your personal information or footage. The system uses a hybrid approach: local processing on your Intelligence Hub for speed, and cloud processing for advanced analysis and secure storage. You have full access to your 24/7 recordings for up to two weeks via our app, ensuring that your Standlake home's security data remains private and under your total control.

A video doorbell only protects your front door and is often easily bypassed or covered. scOS provides 360-degree intelligence for your entire property. In a village like Standlake, where homes often have side access, large gardens, or outbuildings, a doorbell simply isn't enough. scOS detects threats at the boundary of your property, long before they reach the door. It also features proactive deterrents like voice warnings and presence simulation that doorbells lack. While a doorbell tells you who is there, scOS actively works to ensure no one wants to be there in the first place.

Standlake’s proximity to the River Windrush and the A415 means our hardware needs to be tough. Our professional installation uses high-quality, wired components that are far more reliable than wireless alternatives. Wired systems cannot be jammed by criminals and are built to withstand the damp, often foggy conditions found near the river. Our MotionX AI is also specifically tuned to ignore environmental factors like heavy rain or mist, ensuring that your security remains pinpoint accurate regardless of the Oxfordshire weather.

Many Standlake properties feature detached garages or sheds that are often the first target for thieves. scOS is perfect for this because our AI automatically detects property boundaries, including outbuildings. If someone approaches your shed at an unusual hour, the system recognises this anomaly. It can trigger specific responses, such as turning on floodlights or issuing a voice warning from a nearby speaker. Because scOS learns your 'normal' behaviour, it knows that you visiting the shed at 10 PM is fine, but a stranger doing so at 3 AM requires an immediate deterrent.

Standlake is a safe village, but its location makes it accessible for opportunistic crime. scOS is designed for 'set and forget' peace of mind. Our scOS Director feature allows you to interact with your system using natural language. You can simply ask, 'Director, was there anything unusual today?' and it will give you a summary of activity. This means you don't have to spend your time checking apps or worrying about alerts. The system works silently in the background, only intervening when a genuine threat is detected, allowing you to enjoy village life without complacency.
