Standard CCTV is a passive recording tool that only helps you see what you've already lost. In Trowell, where property crime rates are a concern due to the proximity to the M1, you need a system that prevents the crime from happening. scOS uses MotionX technology, which identifies 'important activity' rather than just motion. It doesn't require you to set up complex zones; it automatically understands your property boundaries. Because it ignores non-threats like wind, animals, or spiders, it provides zero false alarms. When scOS detects a person, it doesn't just watch; it intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop the intruder in their tracks.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most existing wired IP camera systems, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If your Trowell home already has a camera setup, our Intelligence Hub can likely take control of those 'dumb' cameras and make them smart. During our professional installation, which takes about 4-6 hours, our UK-based engineers will assess your current hardware. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI security without the expense of replacing all your existing cameras, providing a seamless and powerful intelligence boost to your home's protection.

scOS uses a multi-layered approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation, which learns your daily routines and mimics them when you're away—turning lights on and off to make your home look occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which spots intruders the moment they cross your boundary, even if they are wearing hoods or masks. Finally, the system uses Active Intervention: external IoT speakers deliver AI-generated voice warnings while lights illuminate the area. This escalating response tells criminals that your home is protected by an active, intelligent system, usually forcing them to leave before they can cause any damage.

We take your privacy seriously, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is stored in secure UK data centres and is fully GDPR compliant. We use a combination of local processing via your Intelligence Hub and secure cloud processing for advanced AI tasks. Unlike many other companies, we never sell your data or use it for anything other than your own security. You have full control over your recordings, which are kept for up to 14 days and can be accessed securely through our app from anywhere in the world.

A video doorbell only monitors your front door and often only alerts you once someone is already there. For a property in Trowell, you need wider protection. scOS monitors your entire property boundary, detecting intruders long before they reach your door. While a doorbell is reactive, scOS is proactive, using lights and voice deterrents to stop criminals. It also features advanced intelligence like DVLA vehicle recognition and covered face detection, providing a level of security that a simple doorbell camera simply cannot match.

Trowell's location near the M1 and Trowell Services makes it vulnerable to transient criminals who use the motorway for quick getaways. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies every vehicle that enters your property's vicinity. It checks registrations against the DVLA database to flag cloned plates or vehicles associated with suspicious activity. This provides an essential layer of protection for Nottinghamshire residents, ensuring that any vehicle 'casing' your home is identified and logged immediately, giving you a vital early warning.

Our MotionX technology is specifically designed to eliminate the frustration of false alarms. In a village setting like Trowell, where wildlife and wind are common, traditional systems often fail. MotionX ignores animals, swaying trees, and even spiders on the lens. It focuses entirely on human activity and can recognise a person regardless of their movement or if they are trying to hide their shape. This ensures that you only receive alerts for genuine threats, allowing you to trust your security system completely.

Yes, scOS is designed to be incredibly user-friendly through our 'scOS Director' conversational AI. You don't need to be a tech expert to use it. You can simply ask the system questions in plain English, such as 'Was there any suspicious activity last night?' or 'Did the gardener come today?' The AI will review the footage and give you a clear, concise answer. This makes managing your home security in Trowell as simple as sending a text message, providing instant peace of mind.
