Getting the right people to the right place at the right time.
When a school notices something happening, the people it chooses can be notified. VOLT turns your community's existing IP cameras into alerts that name what was seen and where.

Schools and agencies, working from the same alert.
Schools and the agencies that serve them work from the same alert.
At the school
Alerts go to the people you choose

- Everyone sees where help is needed
- It works with your existing IP cameras
How it works
From noticing to notifying, in three steps.
A VOLT reviewer checks a moment by default before staff are notified.

VOLT notices
A fall, a possible fight, someone where they shouldn't be or a visible weapon on connected cameras.
- 2
The right people know
The school staff you choose are notified by phone, SMS or email.
- 3
Everyone sees the location
The alert names what was seen and where; the email and the VOLT app show the camera view.

Questions
What agencies and communities ask us.
Straight answers for chiefs, sheriffs, managers and residents.
Do you use facial recognition?
No. VOLT notices situations, not identities.
Can VOLT be used to follow a specific person?
VOLT doesn’t identify who anyone is. VOLT keeps visually tracking a person by appearance after they've been identified with a visible weapon, even once the weapon is hidden.
Who decides what happens next?
Staff decide what happens next.
