Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime while it happens but does nothing to stop it. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. Using our proprietary MotionX technology, scOS identifies "important activity"—specifically human threats—rather than just simple motion. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks to avoid false alarms from wind or spiders, MotionX works out of the box to ignore environmental noise. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes. It can automatically trigger external lights and deliver escalating voice warnings through IoT speakers to deter an intruder before they even touch your door. It’s the difference between having a witness and having a digital security guard.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand agnostic and can transform your existing "dumb" cameras into an intelligent security network. We support most professional-grade wired IP cameras from manufacturers like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK-based installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we can apply our MotionX AI and proactive deterrent features to your current setup. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI intelligence without the need to replace every piece of hardware you’ve already invested in, provided they meet the necessary technical standards for wired connectivity.

scOS uses a multi-layered approach to deterrence that begins long before a criminal reaches your property. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to learn your internal activity patterns and replicate them when you're away, making your home appear occupied. If a criminal is not deterred by the appearance of someone being home, our MotionX technology takes over. It accurately identifies people regardless of how they move or if they attempt to cover their faces. Once a threat is confirmed on your property boundaries, the system initiates active intervention. This starts with instant illumination from external lights and can escalate to authoritative voice warnings delivered via external IoT speakers. This sequence is designed to strip away the intruder's anonymity and force them to retreat.

At scOS, we take a "privacy by design" approach. We are a 100% UK-based company, meaning all our support staff and data centres are located right here in the UK. Your data is processed using a hybrid model: the scOS Intelligence Hub handles critical detection locally on your property for speed and privacy, while the cloud is used for secure escalation and remote access. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we believe your data belongs to you. We never sell your personal information or footage to third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and can be accessed securely from anywhere in the world via our encrypted app.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it tells you who is at the door once they’ve already arrived. scOS is a comprehensive property intelligence system designed to stop crime before it reaches your front door. While a doorbell has a limited field of view, scOS monitors your entire property boundary using AI that auto-detects your perimeter. It doesn't just record; it actively deters. While a doorbell might send you a notification while someone is stealing a package, scOS would have already identified the intruder at the edge of your driveway, turned on the lights, and issued a voice warning to move them on. It provides whole-property protection rather than just monitoring a single entry point.

Swaffham Prior is an affluent village, and high-value vehicles are often a target. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies every car that enters your property. It checks registrations against the DVLA database to flag cloned plates or vehicles that have been flagged as suspicious. This allows the system to alert you the moment an unknown or suspicious vehicle pulls onto your driveway, providing a critical early warning against organised car theft.

Yes, scOS is designed to be "smart" about your family's movements. Our Person Recognition AI learns to distinguish between residents and strangers based on their typical behaviour and patterns. This means the system won't trigger deterrents like voice warnings when you or your family members are coming and going, but it will remain fully vigilant against anyone whose behaviour doesn't match the "normal" patterns of your household.

Cambridgeshire Constabulary, like many forces, values high-quality evidence. scOS provides 24/7 recording with up to two weeks of storage. More importantly, our scOS Director AI allows you to quickly find and export relevant footage. Instead of searching through hours of video, you can simply ask, "Show me the person who was looking in the garage windows at 2 AM," and the system will provide the exact clip, ready to be shared with the police.
