Safety Shouldn't Cost Privacy: How VOLT Works
Schools and campuses shouldn't have to choose between feeling safe and feeling respected.
Students should be able to walk down a hallway without wondering who is looking at them. Families should know what a school's cameras are for. Staff should be able to help when something goes wrong. Those goals don't pull against each other.
We think staying safe shouldn't mean giving up your privacy.
Good safety is about moments
Good safety is getting the right people to the right place at the right time.
VOLT is built to notice moments: a fall, a possible fight, someone where they shouldn't be. When it notices one, the alert shows the camera view and the location.
The point isn't to watch people. The point is to help the right person get there, whether that is a nurse heading to a student who has fallen or a staff member checking a building that should be empty.
AI finds the moment. People make the call.
It doesn't decide what happens next. Every notification is human verified. Your school's staff see what is happening and where, and respond the way they know how. AI points. People decide.
Your school chooses who is told and what to do next.
That keeps decisions about students with the people who know them.
What VOLT uses
VOLT uses video from the cameras your school chooses to connect.
VOLT is built to run on the cameras you already have.
Plain answers for your community
If you lead a school, students, families and staff will ask how this works. They deserve straight answers.
Students and parents can start with our pages for students and families. School leaders can use Student Privacy and School Cameras: Questions to Ask to work through the questions with their own community.
Safety and privacy belong together
A school can notice the moments that matter and still respect the people inside it.
Safety and privacy belong together.
