UK's first autonomous crime prevention system
Starting from 63p/day

Every time you leave home, there's that nagging worry. Did I lock up properly? Is someone watching the house? You shouldn't have to feel anxious about your own home.
Something happened in the garden last night. Now you're scrubbing through 8 hours of footage trying to find 30 seconds of activity. Life's too short for this.
Your phone buzzes constantly. A cat. Cobwebs. Headlights. After a while you stop checking, which defeats the entire point of having cameras.
Not motion. Not shadows. scOS detects the kind of activity a trained security guard would notice. When your phone buzzes, it matters.
Family, friends, the builder—scOS learns who belongs. No repetitive alerts for familiar faces. Only strangers trigger attention.
Message scOS for pre-edited clips across all cameras, or ask when the bin was last emptied. It's like having staff you can actually talk to.
No hidden fees. No premium tiers. All features included from day one.

Everything you need to know about scOS installation in Westacott
scOS is a proactive guardian, not just a digital witness. Traditional CCTV in Westacott often records a crime for you to watch later, but scOS uses MotionX technology to identify "important activity" in real-time without the need for frustrating motion masks. It ignores spiders and wind, focusing only on genuine threats, and then takes immediate action with lights and voice warnings to stop intruders before they reach your door.
Absolutely. scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing "dumb" cameras into an intelligent security powerhouse. We work with most professional-grade wired IP cameras from brands like Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. During our professional UK installation, our engineers will assess your current setup to ensure full compatibility with our Intelligence Hub.
We use a three-layered approach to stop criminals in Devon. First, Presence Simulation learns your daily habits to make your home look occupied even when you're away, acting as a powerful passive deterrent. Second, our MotionX AI identifies suspicious behaviour—even if the person is masked or crawling—the moment they cross your property boundary. Finally, the system triggers an escalating response, using external IoT speakers to deliver voice warnings and instant illumination to scare them off.
Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is 100% UK-based. All your video data is processed locally on your Intelligence Hub before being securely backed up to our UK-based data centres, ensuring full GDPR compliance. We never sell your data, and you maintain total control over who can access your footage through our secure app.
A video doorbell is essentially a high-tech peephole that tells you someone is already at your door; scOS is a comprehensive intelligence system that protects your entire property boundary. While doorbells often suffer from "notification fatigue" due to false alarms, scOS uses MotionX to provide zero false alarms and actually intervenes to stop a crime before it happens, rather than just filming it.
Westacott is a safe area, but low crime can lead to complacency. scOS ensures you're never caught off guard by providing 24/7 proactive monitoring that never sleeps, even when the village feels perfectly quiet. It’s about maintaining that safety, not just reacting to a problem.
Yes. Our professional UK-based installation team handles everything in a single day (usually 4-6 hours). We ensure all wiring is discreet and the system is fully calibrated for your specific Westacott property before we leave.
scOS uses wired connections rather than WiFi for its cameras. This is crucial because it prevents "signal jamming," a common tactic used by modern burglars to disable wireless cameras and video doorbells. Your security remains rock-solid regardless of interference.
Passive cameras aren't enough. Get AI security that actually prevents crime.
