ZeroEyes, the creators of the first AI-based gun detection video analytics platform to earn the full U.S. Department of Homeland Security SAFETY Act Designation, and Singlewire Software, the pioneer in solutions that help keep people safe and informed, announced a new partnership to improve emergency communications in schools.
As part of this collaboration, Glassboro Public School District (GPSD) in New Jersey has become the first joint customer to deploy an integrated solution combining ZeroEyes’ AI gun detection with Singlewire’s InformaCast incident management software.
Real-time gun detection alerts
This integration supports faster, more coordinated emergency responses
The integration enables real-time gun detection alerts from ZeroEyes to automatically trigger Singlewire’s InformaCast system, which can instantly distribute customised alerts across a wide range of devices.
These include digital signage, PA systems, strobe lights, desk phones and more, all reaching targeted audiences. This integration supports faster, more coordinated emergency responses and ensures critical information reaches those who need it most.
Hosting emergency training exercises
GPSD is a Pre-K through 12 public school district located in Glassboro, New Jersey, serving approximately 1,950 students and 350 staff members across four schools and two district buildings.
With a diverse student population and deep partnerships with neighboring Rowan University, the district offers specialised academics in Performing Arts, STEM, Biomedical Studies, and Business Leadership.
The district prioritises safety and mental health, using tools like Senso and Gaggle to flag concerning keywords in emails, as well as hosting emergency training exercises with local law enforcement.
ZeroEyes’ capabilities
“Our district was immediately impressed upon seeing a demonstration of ZeroEyes’ capabilities, and recognised that integrating it with our Singlewire software would significantly enhance our security system,” said Craig Stephenson, assistant superintendent at GPSD.
“The safety of our students and staff is our top priority, and this integration adds a critical new layer of protection.”
Based in Madison, Wisconsin, Singlewire Software is a major provider of mass notification systems for schools, healthcare, government, and enterprise organisations.
InformaCast platform
Its InformaCast platform enables organisations to communicate quickly and effectively during emergencies and daily operations. Singlewire serves more than 2,000 K-12 customers across all 50 states and is widely trusted for its reliability and flexibility in high-stakes environments.
“Shootings typically last only five to seven minutes, so every second counts,” said Terry Swanson, president and CEO of Singlewire Software.
“By integrating ZeroEyes’ AI-based detection with our mass notification platform, we help schools take fast, decisive action. Our goal is to keep people safe and informed everywhere, every time, and this partnership strengthens that mission.”
AI gun detection
AI gun detection and intelligent situational awareness software layers onto existing digital security cameras
ZeroEyes' AI gun detection and intelligent situational awareness software layers onto existing digital security cameras.
If a gun is identified, images are instantly shared with the ZeroEyes Operations Center (ZOC), the industry's only U.S.-based, fully in-house operation centre, which is staffed 24/7/365 by military and law enforcement veterans.
If these experts determine that the threat is valid, they dispatch alerts and actionable intelligence — including visual description, gun type, and last known location — to first responders and school staff as quickly as 3 to 5 seconds from detection.
Integration with Singlewire
“This integration with Singlewire is a powerful example of how two technologies can complement each other to enhance school safety,” said Mike Lahiff, CEO and co-founder of ZeroEyes.
“While ZeroEyes provides the critical early detection of a potential threat, Singlewire enables that intelligence to be instantly delivered across a wide range of devices and formats.”
“It’s a mutually beneficial partnership that simplifies emergency response and helps protect lives. We’re proud to see this technology in action with Glassboro Public Schools and look forward to bringing it to more districts in the future.”
