Traditional CCTV is a passive recording tool; it’s a 'digital witness' that only helps you see what happened after a crime is over. scOS is a proactive security system designed to prevent the crime from happening in the first place. The difference is our MotionX AI. Unlike standard systems in Wolvercote that might trigger false alarms from wind or animals, MotionX identifies 'important activity'—like a person prowling—with incredible accuracy. When a threat is detected, scOS doesn't just record; it intervenes by activating lights and voice warnings, providing a real-time deterrent that stops intruders before they can cause any damage.

Yes, scOS is brand-agnostic and works with most professional-grade wired IP cameras, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and Reolink. If your home in Wolvercote already has a wired camera system, our Intelligence Hub can likely integrate with it, turning your existing cameras into a smart, AI-powered network. During our professional UK installation, our engineers will assess your current setup. This allows you to gain the benefits of MotionX detection and proactive deterrents without the cost of a full hardware replacement, making it a very efficient upgrade for your home.

scOS uses a three-layer deterrent strategy. First is Presence Simulation, which mimics your natural internal lighting patterns when you're away, making your home look occupied. Second is MotionX detection, which identifies intruders at your property boundary—which the AI detects automatically. Third is Active Intervention: if a suspicious person is detected, scOS triggers external lights and uses external IoT speakers to deliver a voice warning. This escalating response is designed to convince an intruder that the home is occupied and monitored by an advanced system, causing them to leave before they ever attempt to break in.

Your privacy is our priority. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We use a hybrid processing model where your Intelligence Hub processes video locally on your property for speed and privacy. Only 'important events' are sent to our secure UK cloud for storage and remote access. We never sell your data, and you have complete control over your system, ensuring that your home life remains private while staying protected.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool that usually only covers your front door. scOS is a whole-property intelligence system. While a doorbell might show you a package being stolen, scOS will detect an intruder the moment they enter your driveway or move toward a side window. Because scOS is hard-wired, it's much more reliable than Wi-Fi-based doorbells, which can be easily jammed. Most importantly, scOS proactively intervenes with lights and voice warnings to stop a crime, whereas a doorbell just records it and sends a notification that you might miss.

Wolvercote's proximity to the A40 and A34 makes it a prime area for vehicles with cloned plates to operate. scOS features integrated DVLA Vehicle Recognition, which automatically checks the registration of any vehicle entering your property against the national database. If a suspicious vehicle or a known cloned plate is detected, scOS can alert you immediately. This is a vital layer of protection for residents in high-traffic areas on the edge of Oxford.

Wolvercote has a property crime rate of 23.49 per 1,000, which is lower than the national average but higher than many rural villages. This suggests that opportunistic crime is a real factor here. scOS's MotionX technology is specifically designed to catch these opportunistic intruders. By identifying suspicious behaviour—such as someone looking into car windows or testing gate latches—scOS can trigger a deterrent before any entry is attempted, keeping your home safe in a busy suburban environment.

scOS is designed to be as unobtrusive as possible. Our professional installation team ensures that all wiring is hidden and that the cameras and IoT speakers are placed discreetly to respect the aesthetic of your home. The 'intelligence' of the system means it doesn't need to be loud or flashy to be effective; its power lies in its ability to detect and deter quietly and efficiently. You get the highest level of protection without turning your home into a fortress.
