Standard CCTV is a passive tool that records events for you to review after a crime has occurred. scOS is a proactive intelligence system powered by MotionX. While traditional cameras struggle with false alarms from shadows or pets, MotionX focuses exclusively on 'important activity,' such as a person approaching your property. It requires no manual 'tripwires' or 'zones' because the AI automatically detects your property boundaries. When a threat is identified, scOS takes immediate action—triggering lights and voice warnings—to deter the intruder. It’s like having a professional security team monitoring your Truro home 24/7, without the ongoing cost of a manned guard.

Yes, scOS is designed to be highly compatible. We can transform most existing wired IP camera systems (such as those from Hikvision, Dahua, or Axis) into intelligent AI-powered networks. During our professional installation process, which takes about 4-6 hours, our UK-based engineers will integrate your current cameras with the scOS Intelligence Hub. This allows you to keep your existing hardware while gaining access to advanced features like MotionX detection, DVLA vehicle recognition, and scOS Director. It’s a cost-effective way to upgrade your Truro property’s security to the highest modern standards without starting from scratch.

scOS uses a three-tiered approach to stop criminals before they act. The first layer is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic your daily habits inside the house, making it appear occupied even when you're out in the city. The second layer is MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious individuals at your boundary, even if they are attempting to hide their faces with hoods or masks. The final layer is Active Intervention: if an intruder persists, the system triggers automatic light responses and delivers clear voice warnings via external IoT speakers. This escalating response is designed to make any criminal realise they have been spotted and that the property is actively defended.

Your data security is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all data is processed and stored within the UK in GDPR-compliant data centres. We use a 'Local + Cloud' approach: the scOS Intelligence Hub performs the initial AI analysis locally on your property for maximum speed and privacy. Only when an event requires further analysis or remote notification is data sent to our secure cloud. We never sell your data to third parties, and you retain full ownership and access to your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks.

Video doorbells are often limited by a narrow field of view and reactive technology; they tell you someone is there only once they've reached your door. scOS provides whole-property protection. It uses AI to monitor your entire boundary, detecting potential intruders the moment they step onto your land. Unlike doorbells, which rarely offer active deterrents, scOS proactively uses lights and voice warnings to stop a crime before it even begins. For a home in Truro, scOS offers a level of professional-grade security that a simple consumer doorbell cannot match.

Truro has many beautiful period properties where aesthetics are as important as security. Our professional UK installers are experts at discreetly fitting scOS hardware. We use wired connections for maximum reliability and security (as wireless signals can be jammed), but we ensure that cabling is hidden and cameras are positioned to be effective without being an eyesore. Because scOS works with a wide range of camera brands, we can often select hardware that best matches the architectural style of your home while still providing world-class AI protection.

scOS Director is our revolutionary conversational AI. Instead of scrolling through hours of footage, you can simply ask natural questions like, 'What time did the delivery arrive?' or 'Has anyone been near the side gate today?' It understands the context of your property and provides instant answers. For Truro residents with busy lifestyles, this means you can check on your home's status in seconds, just like talking to a dedicated security guard who has been watching your property all day.

With Truro being a central hub for Cornwall, vehicle-related crime is a valid concern. scOS includes DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies every vehicle that enters your property's vicinity. It checks registrations against the DVLA database to ensure the plate matches the vehicle type and can flag suspicious or 'cloned' plates. You can even set alerts for specific vehicles or ask scOS Director to list all cars that have visited your driveway, giving you unparalleled oversight of who is coming and going from your home.
