Traditional CCTV is a passive recording tool—it only helps you see what you've already lost. scOS is a proactive Home Intelligence system. It uses our proprietary MotionX technology to detect 'important activity' at your property boundary. Unlike standard systems that get confused by passing cars on the A470 or swaying trees, MotionX is 100% accurate in identifying human threats. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record; it takes action. It can automatically turn on lights and issue voice warnings through external speakers to deter an intruder before they ever reach your home.

Yes, scOS is brand agnostic and designed to work with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, our engineers will evaluate your current setup and integrate it into the scOS Intelligence Hub. We strongly recommend wired systems over wireless ones for Tongwynlais residents, as wired connections are immune to the Wi-Fi jamming devices that are becoming increasingly common among burglars targeting areas with easy motorway access. This ensures your home remains protected even in high-traffic areas.

scOS uses three layers of proactive defence. The first is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to make your home look occupied by mimicking your usual internal activity patterns. The second is MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious people at your boundary, even if they are trying to hide their identity. The third is active intervention: if an intruder is detected, the system triggers bright lights and escalating voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This combination is designed to stop a crime in its tracks by removing the element of surprise and making your home a 'hard target.'

Your data security is our top priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your video and AI data are stored in secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring your information is never sold or shared. Our Intelligence Hub processes data locally on your property for maximum privacy, only using our secure UK cloud for advanced analysis and remote access. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only monitors your front door. scOS provides comprehensive, 360-degree intelligence for your entire property. While a doorbell might tell you a parcel has been stolen, scOS is designed to prevent the thief from ever stepping onto your driveway. By monitoring your whole boundary and using active deterrents like lights and voice warnings, scOS stops crime before it happens. For homes in Tongwynlais, where quick access to the M4 can make for fast-moving crime, a single doorbell camera simply isn't enough.

Tongwynlais's location near the M4 and A470 makes it accessible for criminals who use the motorway network to scout and target homes. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies every car that enters your property. It can check plates against the DVLA database to spot cloned registrations or vehicles associated with known criminal activity. If an unrecognised vehicle lingers near your driveway, scOS can alert you immediately, providing a vital early warning against transit-based property crime.

scOS features 'Covered Face Detection,' which is specifically designed to flag suspicious behaviour. If the AI detects someone approaching your property with their face concealed by a balaclava, mask, or even a pulled-up hood in suspicious circumstances, it will immediately escalate the response. This includes instant alerts to your phone and a more assertive voice deterrent from the external speakers. Unlike basic systems, scOS isn't fooled by disguises; it focuses on the behaviour and the fact that a person is on your property when they shouldn't be.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that makes managing your security effortless. You can ask it natural questions like, 'Was there anyone on the driveway last night?' or 'Did a delivery arrive while I was out?' The AI will quickly scan your footage and provide a summary, saving you from having to manually review hours of video. It’s like having a digital security guard who knows your property inside out and can give you an instant report whenever you need it, providing peace of mind for Tongwynlais residents.
