ZeroEyes exists to shorten the time between a firearm or bladed object appearing and a first responder knowing about it. The AI recognizes the object on cameras you already own, a trained ZeroEyes analyst verifies it, and a verified alert goes to the people you choose.
ZeroEyes reads frames from the cameras you already own and operate. It does not add cameras, move them, or watch a continuous live feed.
No alert reaches a first responder without review and confirmation by a trained ZeroEyes analyst.
A verified alert carries the key-frame image, camera location, and a unique alert ID, and goes to the recipients you control.
No facial recognition, no biometric analysis, and no identity resolution. ZeroEyes looks for the object, not the person.
The mission does not require identifying a person by name or continuously tracking anyone. It requires recognizing a visible weapon, verifying it, and getting that information to you as fast as possible.

Three steps from a camera frame to a confirmed alert, with a ZeroEyes analyst in the loop before anyone is notified.
ZeroEyes AI analyzes frames from your existing cameras and flags a visible, brandished firearm or bladed object. Analysts do not watch a continuous live feed.
A trained analyst in the ZeroEyes Operations Center (ZOC) reviews the detection against the available context. Clear detections are confirmed fast; ambiguous ones get more review time.
The verified alert goes to your distribution list, which you control and can change at any time, with the image, camera location, and alert ID to guide your response.
The ZeroEyes Data Retention and Privacy Standard governs the AI threat detection platform and the ZeroEyes Operations Center in every deployment, public and private sector alike. It applies to the imagery and metadata that ZeroEyes processes or that a real person reviews.
The object. Enough to recognize it, verify it, and communicate it to you.
Visible, brandished firearms or bladed objects, in frames from cameras you already own and operate. Detection is focused on the object, not on identifying the person carrying it.
A person's name, or to continuously track a person.
"Privacy is an important part of this rollout. ZeroEyes is designed to identify only visibly brandished weapons, not individuals. Operations Center screens remain blank unless a potential weapon is detected, and team members do not watch a continuous live camera feed. The platform does not perform facial recognition and does not store personal or biometric data."
Thornton Township High School District 205ZeroEyes only captures images. It does not append third-party data to an image capture to identify a person, and it does not control how customers use the images, or their identification of any person.
Customers may request a shorter retention window than the default, and may request certified deletion of all imagery associated with their account at any time.
| Data type | Retention | Deletion |
|---|---|---|
| Verified true-positive detection imagery | Retained indefinitely | Manual |
| Analyst-dismissed / false-positive imagery | Discarded within 30 days | Automatic |
| Detection metadata and audit logs | Retained indefinitely | Manual |
| Imagery under active legal hold | Retained indefinitely; deleted upon release of the legal hold | Manual |
All imagery from your cameras remains your property, and ZeroEyes claims no ownership interest in it. Your camera systems and video management system stay entirely under your control and authority.
The license terminates. Associated imagery is deleted and deletion is certified, unless otherwise required by law or requested by the customer.
ZeroEyes provides a list of subprocessors on request and as required by law.
ZeroEyes does not use information from one customer to provide service to a different customer.
No outside agency can search ZeroEyes data.
ZeroEyes does not sell, rent, or license customer imagery or detection data to data brokers, advertisers, or insurers for their own use.
You control who receives alerts and can change that distribution list at any time.
The system does not independently lock doors, notify police, dispatch responders, or escalate an incident. The ZOC is built to verify clear, actionable detections with speed, while allowing more time for review when a situation is ambiguous.
New analysts complete structured onboarding and a probationary evaluation period before taking on independent duties.
New analysts monitor under the direct oversight of experienced personnel and get independent responsibilities only on demonstrated readiness.
The ZOC runs 24/7, with peer, senior, and management support available for escalation or supervisory review.
Analysts evaluate each detection against available situational context and escalate whenever a determination is not clear-cut.
Analysts are assessed on a recurring cycle and receive continuing training and coaching throughout their tenure.
Analysts pursue relevant external certifications in emergency communications and security.
All analyst actions are logged and attributable, and logs are kept for auditability and quality assurance.
Analysts can view only the specific detection under review. They have no access to live feeds or unrelated footage.
All analysts operate under a duty of confidentiality where required by applicable law.
School boards, security directors, and public agencies need more than a promise. ZeroEyes brings the certifications and track record to back it up.
ZeroEyes is the first AI-based visual gun detection technology to earn a U.S. Department of Homeland Security SAFETY Act Designation.
The ZeroEyes information security management system is independently certified to ISO/IEC 27001.
Customers can get the maintained audit logs of detections, analyst dispositions, and alert dispatches for their own sites.
On request, an annual account-level summary of detection volume, verification outcomes, and alert dispatches.
ZeroEyes is candid about accuracy and limits, and so are we.
The system detects visible weapons only. It cannot detect a weapon concealed in clothing, a bag, or a vehicle, and it is not a substitute for a screening or entry-control layer.
Camera coverage is the binding constraint. A firearm outside a camera's view, obscured, or in poor lighting will not be detected. Performance depends on your existing camera placement, resolution, and lighting.
Human verification exists to help prevent a false detection from becoming a dispatch. Analysts work to de-escalate and err on the side of caution.
ZeroEyes aims to reduce the time between a firearm or blade becoming visible and a responder having actionable information about it. No published research shows camera-based AI detection prevents attacks.
Detection without a rehearsed response plan produces confusion, not safety. ZeroEyes white-glove onboarding helps weave detections into your active assailant response protocols.
ZeroEyes will disclose customer data where required by law, or where it believes doing so is necessary or appropriate, as permitted by applicable law and contract. It will also maintain data where required by law, or where it believes it is necessary to do so.
The platform adds weapon recognition to your cameras and gets verified information to the right people, fast.
AI recognition of visible, brandished firearms and bladed objects across your camera network, confirmed by a trained analyst.
Verified alerts go to the recipients you choose, such as your staff and local law enforcement, and you can change the list at any time.
Audit logs and annual account summaries help you measure detections, verification outcomes, and alert dispatches.
ZeroEyes helps fit detections into your broader active assailant response protocols.
From a K-12 hallway to a house of worship to a city block, the same platform looks for visible weapons, not identities.
K-12 schools and higher-education campuses get verified, actionable information quickly, so safety teams and law enforcement can respond.
Offices, retail, and corporate campuses detect visible weapons and alert their teams faster.
Courthouses, agencies, and public facilities add a human-verified detection layer to the cameras they already run.
Churches, synagogues, mosques, and community gathering spaces add weapon detection that looks for objects, not identities.
Municipalities add weapon detection to cameras at transit hubs, parks, and event venues.
Utilities, transport, and stadiums, where coverage is large, complex, and always on.
See how ZeroEyes recognizes a visible weapon on your cameras, how analysts verify it, and how a verified alert reaches your team.
