Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime while it happens but does nothing to stop it. You are often left with grainy footage of a masked individual that the police cannot use. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. At its core is MotionX, a revolutionary activity detection technology that ignores the 'noise' of a busy village—like construction traffic or local wildlife—and focuses only on 'important activity.' It requires no manual zones or tripwires because the AI automatically understands your property boundaries. When a genuine threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with lights and voice deterrents to stop the intruder before they reach your door. It transforms your security from a digital witness into an active digital guard.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and works with almost all professional-grade wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. If you have already invested in a high-quality camera system for your Stogursey home, our Intelligence Hub can often 'brain-train' those existing 'dumb' cameras, turning them into a sophisticated AI network. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By using wired connections over wireless, we ensure your system is immune to the Wi-Fi jamming techniques often used by modern burglars, providing a robust and reliable security foundation that leverages your existing investment.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. The first is Presence Simulation, which makes your home appear occupied by simulating natural human activity patterns inside, such as lights turning on and off in a logical sequence. This is your primary passive deterrent. If an intruder still approaches, our MotionX technology identifies them immediately, regardless of whether they are wearing a mask or trying to hide their silhouette. This triggers the second layer: Active Intervention. Instant illumination from external lights and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers (not two-way audio) inform the intruder they have been detected. Finally, if the threat persists, the system uses an Escalating Response, increasing the intensity of the warnings to ensure the criminal knows the property is a 'hard target.'

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. All your video data and AI processing are handled by our UK data centres, and we are fully GDPR compliant. The system uses a hybrid approach: the scOS Intelligence Hub processes data locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK cloud when necessary for remote access or advanced analysis. You retain full control over your data at all times; we never sell your information or allow unauthorised access. You can view your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks, from anywhere in the world, knowing your home's data stays within the UK.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that tells you someone is at your door—often when it's already too late. scOS is a comprehensive property intelligence system designed to stop crime before it happens. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire property boundary. It uses advanced AI to recognise the difference between a family member and a stranger based on behaviour, and it can even check vehicle registrations against the DVLA database to spot cloned plates. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS uses proactive deterrents like voice warnings and presence simulation to ensure the thief never steps onto your driveway in the first place.

With the high volume of workers and traffic associated with Hinkley Point C, Stogursey sees a lot of unfamiliar faces. scOS uses Person Recognition, which focuses on behaviour and activity patterns rather than just facial features. It learns who 'belongs' at your property—like family members or regular visitors—and can distinguish them from strangers. This allows the system to remain vigilant against suspicious behaviour without bothering you every time a legitimate neighbour or worker passes by.

scOS is ideal for rural Somerset properties. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw 'tripwires' or 'zones' that often fail, our AI automatically detects your property boundaries. It understands where your land ends and the public road or neighbouring field begins. This ensures that the proactive deterrents—like the voice warnings and lights—only trigger when someone actually steps onto your property, providing pinpoint accuracy without false alarms.

scOS Director is a conversational AI that lets you ask questions about your home's security. If you've been out for the day, you can simply ask, 'Was there any unusual activity while I was out?' or 'Did the courier leave the parcel in the porch?' The AI will scan the recorded data and give you a natural language summary. It’s like having a security guard who has watched your house all day and can give you a quick, intelligent briefing whenever you need it.
