Most CCTV systems are passive; they record footage for you to look at after a crime has been committed. scOS is a proactive AI system that works to prevent the crime from happening. At its heart is MotionX, our advanced detection technology that identifies 'important activity' rather than just motion. This means no more false alarms from cats, spiders, or swaying trees. scOS also automatically understands your property boundaries without you needing to draw lines on a screen. When it detects a person crossing those boundaries, it can immediately trigger an escalating response—such as turning on lights and issuing voice warnings—to stop an intruder in their tracks.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional installation process, which takes 4-6 hours, our UK-based engineers will integrate your existing cameras with the scOS Intelligence Hub. This turns your 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent, proactive security network. We use wired connections because they are more reliable and cannot be jammed like wireless cameras. This allows you to upgrade your Stapleford home to the latest AI security standards while making use of your existing hardware investment.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your home's normal activity patterns and mimics them when you're away, making the house look occupied. Second is MotionX detection: our AI identifies intruders the moment they cross your boundary, even if they are trying to hide their shape or face. Third is Active Intervention: if a threat is detected, scOS uses external IoT speakers to deliver authoritative voice warnings and triggers instant illumination. This escalating response is designed to let criminals know they've been spotted by an intelligent system, driving them away before they can attempt a break-in.

Your privacy is our top priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is processed and stored within the UK, fully compliant with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model where our Intelligence Hub handles the majority of the AI work locally on your property for speed and privacy. We only use our secure UK cloud for escalations and remote access. Your data belongs to you, and we never sell or share it. You can access 24/7 recordings for up to two weeks via our secure app, giving you total control over your home's security data.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only covers your front door; it often only tells you someone was there after they've already left. scOS is a proactive, whole-property intelligence system. It monitors your entire boundary and acts autonomously to stop crime. While a doorbell might send you a notification that you miss, scOS identifies threats and triggers deterrents like lights and voice warnings automatically. It doesn't just show you a crime; it prevents it. For a home in Stapleford, scOS provides a much higher level of security and peace of mind than a doorbell alone.

Stapleford's position between Nottingham and Derby means it can be a target for vehicle-related crime. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies registration plates and checks them against the database. This can flag suspicious or cloned plates immediately. By monitoring your driveway and the road outside your home, scOS provides an extra layer of protection for your vehicles, alerting you to any unusual activity and deterring potential car thieves before they can act.

scOS is designed to be highly intelligent and learns your home's normal behaviour. Our Person Recognition feature can distinguish between family members and strangers based on their typical activity patterns. This means the system won't trigger an alarm when you or your family are moving around your property. However, if it detects an unknown person acting suspiciously or at an unusual time, it will immediately flag this as an anomaly and can trigger the appropriate response. This ensures you get the protection you need without the annoyance of false alarms.

Yes, scOS is excellent at protecting all parts of your property, including gardens and outbuildings. Our MotionX technology is trained to ignore the movement of trees and plants, focusing only on human activity. This means you can secure your back garden and any sheds or garages without being plagued by false alarms. If someone enters your garden at night, scOS will detect them immediately and can trigger an escalating response to move them on before they can cause any damage or attempt to enter your home.
