Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records crime but does nothing to stop it. scOS is an active AI system. The key difference is our MotionX technology, which focuses on 'important activity' rather than just motion. This means it ignores wind, rain, and animals, but instantly recognises a person or vehicle. scOS doesn't require you to set up complex 'zones'; it automatically understands your property boundaries. When a threat is detected, scOS proactively intervenes with automatic lights and voice deterrents, stopping intruders before they reach your door. It’s a proactive security guard for your Verwood home.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If your Verwood property already has a wired system, we can usually integrate it with our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing cameras into an intelligent AI network, adding features like person recognition and proactive deterrents. Our professional UK installation team will assess your current setup during the 4-6 hour installation process to ensure everything is optimised for scOS intelligence.

scOS uses a three-layered approach to keep criminals away. First, Presence Simulation mimics your internal activity patterns to make your home look occupied when you're away. Second, MotionX detection identifies suspicious people or vehicles the moment they cross your boundary, even if they are disguised. Third, Active Intervention triggers external lights and authoritative voice warnings from IoT speakers. This escalating response is designed to startle intruders and make it clear that your property is protected by an active, intelligent system, usually causing them to leave immediately.

Your privacy is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We use a hybrid 'Local + Cloud' processing model: the Intelligence Hub in your home processes most data locally for speed and privacy, only using our secure UK cloud for advanced AI analysis and remote access. We never sell your data to third parties, and you have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks.

A video doorbell is a reactive device that only covers your front door and is easily bypassed. scOS is a professional, whole-property security system. It uses MotionX to monitor your entire boundary, detecting threats long before they reach your house. Unlike a doorbell, scOS proactively intervenes to stop crime using lights and voice deterrents. It’s a wired system that can't be jammed like wireless doorbells, and it includes advanced features like DVLA vehicle recognition and conversational AI via scOS Director.

Verwood is a very safe area, but high-value homes can still be targets for sophisticated thieves. scOS is designed to prevent complacency. Our Presence Simulation is particularly effective here, making your home look active even when you're enjoying a weekend in the New Forest. By appearing occupied, you remove the primary motivation for a burglar to target your property, ensuring Verwood stays as safe as you expect it to be.

Yes, scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which is ideal for protecting the high-value cars often found in Verwood. The system identifies every vehicle that enters your property and checks it against the national database. It can flag suspicious or cloned plates and alert you immediately. You can also use the scOS Director to ask, 'What cars have been on the drive today?' giving you total peace of mind over your vehicles.

scOS is designed to be 'set and forget.' Unlike traditional systems that require you to constantly adjust sensitivity or draw 'zones' in an app, our AI automatically learns what is normal for your home. It auto-detects your property boundaries and manages its own responses. You can interact with it as much or as little as you like through the scOS Director, but the system is always working in the background to keep you safe without any manual input required.
