Why Organizations Trust ZeroEyes
The largest school district in our state faces unique staffing challenges related to safety and security. To help address these needs, I introduced ZeroEyes as a way to enhance their recently installed camera system with weapon detection capabilities. The district has been highly impressed with both the accuracy of the platform and the speed of its notifications.

VP of Physical Security at Hearland Business Systems
We partnered with ZeroEyes because their model addresses a real vulnerability. When a weapon is brandished, response time matters. Their combination of AI weapons detection and a human analyst helps close the gap between visual confirmation and emergency notification. Our work in New York, preparing school districts with lockdown, lockout, and emergency protocols, has shown us that incidents may unfold quickly, even before a call is made.
