Driven by Purpose. Powered by AI. Dedicated to Help Save Lives.
Omnilert is the leading provider of AI Gun Detection Technology (learn why) with a native automated emergency response platform built in that helps save lives and reduces the operational, legal and social costs of gun violence by enabling your existing security cameras to identify firearms the moment they are brandished. Once verified, the system initiates a rapid, multi-layered response that includes locking doors, alerting first responders, sounding alarms, taking over screens with emergency messages, mass notifications, and providing real-time intelligence (photos, videos, location(GPS) and more). Recognized by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s SAFETY Act as a designated anti-terrorism technology, Omnilert is a trusted partner of organizations across multiple industries, including K-12 schools, higher education, government, healthcare, retail, Fortune 500 Enterprises, corporate campuses, manufacturing, critical infrastructure, transportation hubs, entertainment venues, and places of worship.
An Idea Was Born Our Mission
Late in 2003, Omnilert’s founders read about the tragedy of Jeanne Clery on her college campus. The article revealed one key factor in the incident: had the student been informed about the criminal on campus, this tragedy may have been prevented.
Since the formation of the company in 2004, our mission of helping to protect people and prevent gun violence has been the guidepost to the company’s development.

Omnilert was the first company to establish the emergency mass notification market, and it continues to be the innovation leader in AI Gun Detection, offering industry-leading Data-Centric Artificial Intelligence and a trusted partner to over 1,000 organizations.
