Traditional CCTV is a passive witness; it records your home being burgled so you can watch the footage later. scOS is an active guardian. The core difference lies in our MotionX technology, which doesn't just see movement—it understands activity. Unlike standard systems that trigger false alarms for spiders, wind, or shadows, MotionX identifies 'important activity,' such as a person approaching your boundary. Because scOS understands what it sees, it can intervene automatically. While your old system would just record an intruder, scOS detects them at the property line, illuminates them with smart lighting, and delivers a voice warning via external speakers. It’s the difference between having a camera and having a digital security guard on duty 24/7.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic. We can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent AI network. Our system works with almost all professional-grade wired IP cameras, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. If your cameras are compatible, we simply connect them to our Intelligence Hub. This hub processes the video locally before escalating critical data to our UK-based cloud for advanced analysis. This means you don't need to rip out your current investment to benefit from proactive AI protection, DVLA vehicle recognition, and automated deterrents.

scOS uses a three-layered proactive approach to stop crime before it happens. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your internal lighting and activity patterns to make your home look occupied even when you're away on holiday or at work. Second is MotionX detection: our AI identifies people regardless of how they move or if they try to conceal their identity with hoods or masks. Finally, there is Active Intervention. When an intruder crosses your auto-detected property boundary, the system triggers an escalating response. This starts with instant illumination to let the intruder know they've been spotted, followed by clear voice warnings from external IoT speakers. By intervening at the boundary, scOS prevents the break-in from ever occurring.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. All your video data is processed through our Intelligence Hub located on your property for immediate local response, with critical events escalated to our secure UK data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, meaning your data stays yours and is never sold or shared with third parties. You have total control over your footage, which is recorded 24/7 and stored for up to two weeks. You can access this footage securely from anywhere in the world, knowing that your home's intelligence is handled entirely within British jurisdiction.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a laggy motion sensor. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. While a doorbell only sees a narrow sliver of your front porch, scOS monitors your entire property boundary. Doorbell cameras are often wireless and can be easily defeated by WiFi jammers; scOS uses secure, wired connections that are immune to jamming. Furthermore, doorbells don't deter—they just record. scOS actively intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop a criminal before they even reach your door, providing a level of security a doorbell simply cannot match.

Treeton’s proximity to the M1 makes it an attractive target for 'transit crime,' where criminals travel into the village, commit a theft, and are back on the motorway within minutes. scOS counters this with DVLA Vehicle Recognition. Our AI scans the registration of every vehicle entering your property and checks it against the national database. If a vehicle is using cloned plates or has been flagged for suspicious activity elsewhere, scOS alerts you immediately, giving you a vital head start.

Modern burglars often use balaclavas or face masks to avoid being identified by traditional CCTV. scOS is smarter. Our Covered Face Detection specifically flags when someone is approaching your property with their face concealed. More importantly, our MotionX technology identifies people based on their movement and shape, not just their face. Even if they are completely covered, scOS recognises them as a human threat and triggers the escalating voice and light deterrents to stop them in their tracks.

scOS Director is our conversational AI that allows you to interact with your security system using natural language. Instead of scrolling through hours of footage, you can simply ask, 'Did any delivery vans arrive while I was at Treeton Dyke today?' or 'Show me any people who walked onto the driveway last night.' It’s like having a security guard who has watched every second of your footage and can answer your questions instantly.
