Traditional CCTV is a passive observer; it records a crime so you can watch it later. scOS is a proactive guardian. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every passing animal or swaying branch, scOS uses MotionX. This revolutionary AI ignores the 'noise' and only alerts you to 'important activity'—like a person approaching your property. Because it understands human behaviour and doesn't require you to draw complex motion masks, it offers zero false alarms. More importantly, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes. By the time a traditional system sends a notification, scOS has already identified the threat, simulated presence inside your home, and delivered a voice warning through external IoT speakers to deter the intruder before they even reach your door.

In most cases, yes. scOS is designed to be brand agnostic, meaning it can transform 'dumb' cameras into an intelligent security network. If you have existing wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, or Ubiquiti, our scOS Intelligence Hub can likely integrate with them. During our professional UK installation—which typically takes 4 to 6 hours—our engineers will assess your current hardware. By layering our AI over your existing cameras, we provide a cost-effective way to upgrade to proactive protection without replacing every piece of glass on your property. We always recommend wired connections over wireless to ensure your system cannot be jammed, ensuring your Wawne home remains secure 24/7.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation: the system learns your normal household patterns and simulates human activity inside the home when you're away, making the property appear occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies important activity with pinpoint accuracy. It recognises people even if they are trying to hide their figure or cover their face. Finally, if a threat is detected within your property boundaries—which the AI auto-detects—the system initiates an Active Intervention. This includes instant illumination and escalating voice warnings delivered via external IoT speakers. This multi-stage approach ensures that criminals feel watched and exposed, usually causing them to flee before any damage is done.

Your privacy is our priority. Unlike many competitors who ship data overseas, scOS is 100% UK-based. All your video data and AI processing are handled with the utmost security. The scOS Intelligence Hub performs initial processing locally on your property for speed and privacy, only escalating to our secure UK-based cloud data centres when necessary for advanced analysis or remote access. We are fully GDPR compliant, and we never sell your data. You have total control over your recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks and accessible only by you through our secure app.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at the door, often after they've already pressed it. scOS provides whole-property intelligence. While a doorbell only covers a narrow field of view at your front entrance, scOS monitors your entire boundary, including side paths, gardens, and outbuildings. More importantly, scOS is designed to stop crime, not just document it. While a doorbell might record a package being stolen, scOS identifies the intruder as they step onto your land and uses proactive voice deterrents to stop them. It’s the difference between having a digital peephole and having a virtual security guard who never sleeps.

Wawne's location near the River Hull and its rural character can make properties feel isolated. scOS is ideal for this. Its AI automatically detects your property boundaries, no matter how irregular. It can monitor sheds, garages, and side gates with the same precision as your front door. Because it uses MotionX, it won't be triggered by local wildlife or swaying trees, but it will instantly recognise a person moving near your outbuildings at night, providing the proactive protection that village homes require.

With property crime being a concern in the Humberside area, protecting your vehicles is vital. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which identifies every car that enters your driveway. It can check registrations against the DVLA database to spot cloned plates or vehicles associated with suspicious activity. If an unrecognised vehicle arrives at an unusual time, scOS can alert you instantly and even deliver a voice warning to the driver, ensuring your cars are protected long before a thief can get close.

Absolutely. One of the standout features of scOS is the 'scOS Director,' a conversational AI. You can ask natural questions like, 'Was there any unusual activity near the garage last night?' or 'Did a delivery van arrive while I was out?' This makes managing your security as easy as talking to a friend. You don't need to be a tech expert to review hours of footage; the AI does the hard work for you, providing clear, concise answers about the safety of your home. This is perfect for busy Wawne residents who want instant answers about their home's safety.
