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 Withnell
Standard CCTV is a passive recording tool; it only helps you see what you've already lost. scOS is a proactive security partner. Using our MotionX technology, the system identifies 'important activity'—specifically human threats—while ignoring the wind and rain common in Lancashire. It doesn't require you to draw lines or zones; it automatically knows where your property ends. While traditional CCTV waits for you to check the app, scOS takes action the moment a threat is detected to stop a crime before it starts.
Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and designed to work with most professional wired IP camera systems, such as Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. Our professional UK installers can typically integrate your existing cameras into the scOS Intelligence Hub in a single day. This transforms your current setup into a high-IQ AI system, giving you all the benefits of proactive protection and MotionX detection without needing to replace your existing hardware.
scOS uses three layers of deterrence. First, Presence Simulation mimics your daily habits inside the house, making it look occupied even if you're out. Second, MotionX AI detects intruders regardless of how they move or if they try to cover their faces. Third, if a threat is detected, the system triggers an escalating response: instant lighting and authoritative AI voice warnings via external IoT speakers. This multi-stage approach is designed to make any intruder realise the home is intelligently protected and move on.
Your data security is paramount. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your footage is stored in secure, GDPR-compliant UK data centres. Processing begins locally on your Intelligence Hub, ensuring fast response times, with only necessary data escalated to the cloud. You have full control over your 24/7 recordings, which are kept for up to two weeks. We never sell your data, ensuring your privacy is always protected.
A video doorbell is a reactive device that only sees who is at your front door. scOS provides intelligence for your entire property. In Withnell, where homes often have side access or larger gardens, a doorbell simply isn't enough. scOS monitors your whole boundary, detecting and deterring intruders at the edge of your property before they ever reach your door. It’s a complete security solution rather than just a notification tool.
Withnell’s location near the M65 makes it easy for intruders to target homes and leave the area quickly. scOS features DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which is specifically designed to catch this. The system can identify vehicles with cloned plates or those that have been flagged as suspicious. You can even ask the scOS Director, 'Has that car been here before?' to get an instant, natural language history of vehicle activity on your property.
While Withnell has a lower crime rate than the national average, property crime is still a concern for local residents. scOS provides a high-tech deterrent that makes your home a difficult target. By proactively deterring intruders with voice warnings and presence simulation, you reduce the risk of burglary and help maintain the safety and peace of the Withnell community. It’s about being proactive rather than reactive.
Yes, scOS is designed to be 'wired over wireless.' This is crucial because wireless cameras can be easily jammed by tech-savvy intruders. By using a wired connection, scOS ensures that your security system remains online and functional even if someone tries to interfere with your WiFi. This provides a much higher level of reliability for your home in Withnell, ensuring you are always protected.
