Standard CCTV is essentially a digital witness; it records a crime as it happens but does nothing to stop it. By the time you check your phone or the police arrive, the damage is done. scOS is fundamentally different because it is a proactive intelligence system. At its core is MotionX, our proprietary AI that doesn't just look for movement—which causes endless false alarms from spiders or wind—but understands 'important activity.' It recognises the human form even if someone is crawling or wearing a mask. More importantly, scOS acts. It doesn't wait for you to see an alert; it uses property boundary detection to identify a threat and immediately triggers a response, such as illuminating the area or delivering a voice warning via external IoT speakers. It’s the difference between having a video of a burglary and preventing the burglary from ever occurring.

Absolutely. One of the unique strengths of scOS is that it is brand agnostic. We don't force you to buy expensive new hardware if you already have a functional setup. Our Intelligence Hub is designed to work with almost any professional-grade wired IP camera system, including popular brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK installation process, which typically takes between 4 to 6 hours, our engineers will assess your existing cameras. We then 'inject' our AI intelligence into those 'dumb' cameras, transforming them into a sophisticated scOS-powered network. This means you get the benefits of proactive protection, MotionX detection, and presence simulation without the waste and expense of replacing your entire existing infrastructure.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer approach to deterrence that begins long before a criminal reaches your door. The first layer is Presence Simulation. By learning your home's normal activity patterns, scOS can simulate human presence inside the house while you're away—turning lights on and off in a natural sequence that suggests someone is home. The second layer is our MotionX detection. Unlike standard systems, scOS accurately identifies people regardless of how they move or if they attempt to conceal their identity. Finally, if an intruder ignores the simulation and enters your property, scOS initiates an Active Intervention. This involves instant illumination and escalating voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers. This proactive response signals to the criminal that they have been spotted by an intelligent system, usually causing them to flee immediately.

Privacy and security are at the heart of scOS. Unlike many competitors who ship your data to overseas servers, scOS is 100% UK-based. Your data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub for immediate response, and then securely escalated to our UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we believe your data belongs to you. We never sell your information or footage to third parties. You have complete control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and can be accessed securely from anywhere in the world via our encrypted app. By keeping our operations, support, and data storage within the UK, we ensure the highest standards of data protection and provide you with the peace of mind that your home's privacy is never compromised.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you who is at the door, often after they've already pressed it or triggered a PIR sensor that is prone to false alarms. scOS is a comprehensive property-wide intelligence system. While a doorbell only covers a few square metres, scOS monitors your entire property boundary, from the driveway to the back fence. It doesn't just show you a crime; it stops it. With features like DVLA vehicle recognition and covered face detection, scOS identifies threats that a doorbell would miss. Furthermore, scOS provides active deterrence through external speakers and presence simulation, whereas a doorbell relies on you being available to answer a notification. scOS is like having a professional security guard watching your entire home 24/7, rather than just a digital peephole.

Waterloo is a peaceful Norfolk village, but low crime rates can lead to a false sense of security. Opportunistic thieves often target quiet hamlets because they expect fewer security measures. scOS ensures you aren't caught off guard. By providing proactive deterrents and 24/7 AI monitoring, it maintains the safety of your home without you having to constantly worry about it, allowing you to enjoy the Norfolk countryside with total peace of mind.

For those commuting into Norwich, scOS is an ideal partner. Our Presence Simulation learns your daily routines and mimics them while you're at work, making it appear as though someone is always home. You can also use 'scOS Director' to ask natural questions about your property from your phone, such as 'Has the postman been?' or 'Is the driveway clear?', keeping you connected to your home throughout the day.

Norfolk properties often have beautiful gardens that can be vulnerable to intrusion. scOS uses AI to automatically detect your property boundaries, ensuring that your entire garden is protected. Our MotionX technology is specifically designed to ignore the movement of trees, shrubs, and local wildlife, so you won't be bothered by false alarms while your perimeter remains securely monitored.
