ShotSpotter Flex

ShotSpotter Flex is the most powerful and cost-effective gunfire alert and analysis solution available, making comprehensive, real-time gunshot detection and location affordable for any public safety agency.

ShotSpotter Flex delivers all the critical incident and forensic data agencies need to do their jobs more effectively:

Real-time alerts for outdoor gunfire in coverage area
Precise location anywhere within the coverage area including latitude/longitude and street address
Direction and speed of travel of one or more shooters
Exact time of each shot and potential number of shooters
Comprehensive database of incident history and data
Round-by-round post-incident forensic analysis to support investigators and prosecutors

ShotSpotter Flex streamlines the traditional financial and technological requirements of gunshot detection through its unique subscription service model. By eliminating the expense and complexity of a traditional technology purchase, ShotSpotter Flex makes it easier and more affordable than ever before to fight illegal gunfire and improve personnel and community safety.

When gunfire occurs outdoors, ShotSpotter Flex sensors and software triangulate and pinpoint the precise location of each round fired within seconds. Detailed incident data is immediately sent to the SST Operations Center, our secure data processing and alert qualification facility. Immediately, a SST gunfire and acoustic expert analyzes the data, qualifies the incident and sends a validated alert to the dispatch center or other Public Safety Answer Points (PSAP) and even directly to mobile and field personnel.

The highly trained and specialized team of gunfire detection experts at the SST Operations Center has analyzed thousands of gunfire events captured by SST solutions. Their dedicated 24/7/365 expertise provides an instant assessment of all potential incidents, freeing up time that dispatchers and officers would otherwise spend analyzing alerts and providing agencies the level of data qualification they need to have complete confidence when dispatching based on alerts from ShotSpotter Flex. Drawing on their experience, SST experts are often able to add important situational intelligence to alerts, such as the possibility of multiple shooters and other critical data that can help personnel respond more safely and successfully.
