Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime while it happens so you can watch the footage later. scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to stop the crime from occurring in the first place. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every spider web or gust of wind, scOS uses our proprietary MotionX technology. MotionX focuses only on 'important activity,' meaning it ignores environmental noise and recognises people regardless of how they are moving or if they are trying to hide their figure. Because it understands what it's seeing, it can trigger immediate, automatic interventions like lights and voice warnings, turning your cameras from simple witnesses into active digital guards.

Yes, in the vast majority of cases, scOS can breathe new life into your existing hardware. We are brand agnostic and compatible with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current setup. We install our Intelligence Hub, which connects to your cameras and transforms them from 'dumb' recording devices into an intelligent, AI-powered network. This allows you to upgrade to world-class AI security without the cost and disruption of replacing all your existing cabling and hardware, provided they meet the necessary technical standards for our local and cloud processing.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence. First is Presence Simulation: when you're away, the system uses AI to simulate human activity patterns inside your home, making it appear occupied to anyone watching. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies a potential intruder the moment they approach your property boundary—even if they are wearing a mask or hood. Third is Active Intervention. If the AI determines a threat is real, it triggers an escalating response. This starts with instant illumination from your external lights and progresses to clear, authoritative voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. Unlike a simple alarm, scOS tells the criminal they have been spotted and that their presence is being recorded, usually causing them to flee before they even touch a door or window.

At scOS, we take a 'privacy by design' approach. We are a 100% UK-based company, meaning all our support staff, developers, and data centres are located right here in the UK. Your data is processed using a hybrid model: our Intelligence Hub handles immediate analysis locally on your property for speed and privacy, while more complex tasks are escalated to our secure UK cloud. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data to third parties. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app. We believe your home security should never come at the cost of your personal privacy.

A video doorbell is essentially a digital peephole; it tells you who is at the door once they've already arrived. By that point, a determined criminal may have already caused damage or gained entry. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. It monitors your entire boundary, not just the front door, and uses AI to detect threats before they reach your home. While a doorbell might send you a notification while you're asleep or busy, scOS takes action automatically to drive the intruder away. Furthermore, scOS uses professional wired connections which cannot be defeated by the WiFi jammers often used by modern burglars, providing a level of reliability and proactive protection that a consumer-grade doorbell simply cannot match.

Warmington’s proximity to the A1 makes it vulnerable to vehicle-related crime. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which checks the number plates of any vehicle entering your property against the national database. This can identify cloned plates or vehicles associated with suspicious activity. By catching these details early, scOS provides a critical layer of defence for your cars and vans, ensuring that any unauthorised vehicle is flagged the moment it pulls onto your driveway.

Rural properties in Warmington often have outbuildings that are prime targets for theft. scOS is a wired system, which is far more secure than wireless alternatives that can be easily jammed. We can extend your security network to cover garages, sheds, and workshops, providing the same AI-driven MotionX detection and voice deterrents to these high-value areas. This ensures your tools, machinery, and equipment are protected by the same proactive intelligence as your main residence.

In a village like Warmington, you don't want your security system going off every time a fox or a deer wanders past. Our MotionX technology is revolutionary because it ignores animals, wind-blown branches, and cobwebs. It focuses exclusively on 'important activity'—specifically human presence and vehicle movement. This means you won't be woken up by false alarms, but you can be 100% certain that if the system does alert you, it's for something that truly matters.
