Traditional CCTV is a passive observer that merely records your property being burgled, whereas scOS is a proactive intelligence system designed to prevent the crime from happening. While standard systems rely on 'motion detection' that triggers for every passing cat or swaying branch, our proprietary MotionX technology ignores environmental noise to focus exclusively on 'important activity.' It requires no manual 'tripwires' or 'zones' because the AI automatically understands your property boundaries. When a genuine threat is detected, scOS doesn't just watch; it intervenes with automated light and voice responses to deter the intruder before they reach your door.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic and can transform your existing 'dumb' cameras into a high-level intelligence network. We work with most professional wired IP camera brands, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Reolink, and Ubiquiti. During our professional UK-based installation, which typically takes 4-6 hours, our engineers will assess your current hardware. By connecting your existing cameras to our Intelligence Hub, we can apply our MotionX AI and proactive deterrent features to your current setup, saving you the cost of a full hardware replacement while vastly upgrading your security.

scOS uses a sophisticated three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic human activity patterns inside your home when you're away, making the property look occupied. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies suspicious behaviour—even if the person is masked or crawling—without the false alarms that lead to complacency. Finally, if a threat persists, the system triggers Active Intervention. This involves instant illumination and escalating voice warnings delivered through external IoT speakers, informing the intruder they have been detected and the police are being notified.

Your privacy is our priority, which is why scOS is a 100% UK-based operation. Unlike many competitors who ship data to overseas servers, your footage and data are processed locally on your Intelligence Hub before being escalated to our secure UK-based data centres. We are fully GDPR compliant, and your data remains entirely yours; we never sell or share your information with third parties. You have full 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 that tells you someone is at your front door, often after they've already pressed it or stolen a package. scOS is a comprehensive property-wide intelligence system that monitors your entire perimeter. While a doorbell might show you a crime in progress, scOS is designed to stop the crime before it happens by detecting intruders at the boundary of your property. With features like vehicle recognition and escalating voice deterrents, we provide a level of professional security that a simple doorbell camera cannot match.

Wick's location on the A420 makes it a high-value target for burglars travelling between Bristol and Bath. scOS uses DVLA-linked vehicle recognition to monitor every car that enters your property. It can identify suspicious vehicles or those with cloned plates, providing an early warning system that standard cameras simply can't offer, ensuring you're protected from city-based criminals scouting the suburbs.

Many homes in Wick have large driveways or gardens that are difficult to monitor with standard sensors. scOS's MotionX AI automatically detects your property boundaries without the need for manual 'tripwires.' It can monitor large areas with precision, distinguishing between a person walking their dog on the pavement and someone stepping onto your private land, ensuring you only get alerted when it matters.

Presence Simulation is a key feature for Wick residents who may work in the nearby cities. The AI learns your home's internal activity patterns and replicates them when you're out, making the house appear occupied. This is far more effective than simple light timers, as it simulates realistic human movement, deterring burglars who are looking for empty homes during the workday.
