Standard CCTV is passive; it records a crime while it happens but does nothing to stop it. In a village like Wistow, where property crime is low but still a risk, you need a system that prevents the incident. scOS is proactive. Our MotionX AI identifies 'important activity'—specifically human threats—and ignores false alarms like wind or animals. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record; it intervenes with automatic light and voice deterrents to scare the intruder away before they can break in. It’s the difference between having evidence of a crime and preventing it entirely.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Axis. If you already have a system at your Wistow home, we can usually integrate it with our Intelligence Hub, giving your existing cameras an AI 'brain.' Our professional UK-based installation team will assess your setup during the 4-6 hour installation. We always recommend wired connections over wireless to ensure your system cannot be jammed by the sophisticated tools often used by modern burglars.

We use a three-layer 'Shield' approach. First, Presence Simulation mimics your daily activity patterns with internal lighting, making your home look occupied even when you're out. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders the moment they cross your property boundary, even if they are disguised. Third, Active Intervention uses external IoT speakers and lights to deliver escalating warnings. This combination removes the criminal's advantage of surprise and anonymity, forcing them to flee before they can attempt a break-in.

Privacy is a core value at scOS. We are a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres. We never sell or share your data. Our system uses a hybrid model: local processing on your Intelligence Hub for instant AI response, and secure UK cloud storage for remote access. We are fully GDPR compliant, ensuring you have total control over your data. Your 24/7 recordings are stored for up to two weeks and are accessible only by you.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that only monitors your front door. It often only alerts you once someone is already there. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your entire boundary, including driveways and gardens. While a doorbell might record a parcel being stolen, scOS is designed to stop the thief before they even reach your porch. It’s a comprehensive, AI-driven security ecosystem that protects your entire home, not just one entrance.

Wistow is surrounded by agricultural land, and we know that false alarms from wildlife or moving crops can be a nuisance. scOS uses MotionX technology, which is specifically designed to ignore 'unimportant' motion. It won't be triggered by a fox in the garden, a bird flying past, or trees moving in the wind. It focuses exclusively on human behaviour and vehicle patterns, ensuring that when you receive an alert, it’s for a genuine security concern.

Yes. scOS features DVLA-integrated vehicle recognition. It can identify the make, model, and registration of any vehicle entering your property. It can even flag suspicious vehicles, such as those with cloned plates or those that have been seen 'scouting' in the area. This is particularly useful for Wistow residents concerned about vehicle theft or opportunistic criminals using the rural roads to identify targets.

The scOS Director is our conversational AI. Instead of scrolling through hours of footage, you can simply ask, 'Director, was there any unusual activity near the garage last night?' or 'Did the delivery arrive?' The AI understands natural language and provides instant answers based on its activity recognition. It makes managing your home security as simple as having a conversation, giving you instant peace of mind without the technical hassle.
