Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records crime for you to watch after the fact. scOS is a proactive guardian that uses MotionX technology to identify "important activity" in real-time, ignoring false triggers like wind or animals. Unlike standard systems that require you to draw complex motion masks, scOS automatically detects your property boundaries. When a genuine threat is identified, the system doesn't just watch; it intervenes with automatic light responses and voice warnings from external IoT speakers to deter the intruder before they can cause damage.

Absolutely. scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP camera systems, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. Our professional UK-based installation team will assess your current setup during their visit. By connecting your "dumb" cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we transform your existing hardware into a sophisticated AI network capable of DVLA vehicle recognition and proactive deterrence, saving you the cost of a full hardware replacement while significantly upgrading your security.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First, Presence Simulation mimics your typical internal activity patterns when you're away, making the home appear occupied. Second, our MotionX AI identifies suspicious behaviour the moment someone crosses your property boundary, even if they are attempting to conceal their face or figure. Finally, the system uses Active Intervention, triggering external IoT speakers to deliver escalating voice warnings and instant illumination. This combination of looking occupied and reacting instantly to threats makes your home a much harder target for criminals.

We take your privacy seriously, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub and only escalated to our secure UK-based data centres when necessary for AI analysis or remote access. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring your footage remains your property and is never sold or shared with third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and can be accessed securely through our app from anywhere in the world.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that usually only alerts you once someone is already at your front door. In contrast, scOS provides whole-property intelligence that aims to stop crime before it reaches your entrance. By monitoring your entire boundary and using proactive measures like presence simulation and voice deterrents, scOS identifies and challenges intruders at the edge of your property. While a doorbell provides a video of a crime in progress, scOS is designed to prevent the crime from ever happening.

Thornton is a wonderful place to live, but even in areas with lower crime rates, opportunistic theft can occur. scOS ensures you don't become complacent by providing 24/7 AI monitoring. Our system is designed to be a 'silent guardian'—it won't bother you with false alarms, but it will be ready to act instantly if someone suspicious enters your property, ensuring Thornton remains a safe haven for your family.

scOS uses Person Recognition to learn the normal patterns of your household. It can distinguish between family members, regular visitors, and complete strangers based on their behaviour. This means you can receive specific alerts like "Unrecognised person at the side gate," while ignoring the usual movement of your family coming and going, providing tailored security for your Thornton home.

Our professional UK-based engineers handle the entire installation process for you in Thornton. We don't just put up cameras; we strategically place them and the external IoT speakers to ensure maximum coverage and deterrent effect. The installation typically takes 4-6 hours, and we ensure your Intelligence Hub is perfectly configured to your property's specific needs before we leave.
