Transforming the Way People Move Through Life

You have a right to be safe....where you work, where you learn, and where you play. Evolv has screened more than 750 million students, educators, nurses, concert goers, fans, worshippers, patrons of the arts and employees.

Introducing Evolv Express®

Traditional security screening was not designed for today's dynamic threats. Unlike metal detectors, manual bag checks, wanding, and other traditional solutions, Evolv Express® offers an innovative approach to physical security screening.

Evolv Express accelerates physical security screening while maintaining the highest degree of weapons detection accuracy. It eliminates the friction that visitors, fans, patrons, employees and students typically experience moving through security by screening them in a touchless manner. This helps reduce the security risk of crowded security lines. It also drastically reduces human errors by security guards.

We wanted to make the ingress experience seamless, touchless, and paperless. We wanted the guests to have time to take in the entire building and the different things it offers,” Abernathy said.

Report: Gun Violence in America: The Impact on Educators

Last year, when we measured Americans’ anxiety around gun violence for our inaugural report, we found people were carrying a tremendous amount of anxiety around – even for everyday activities, like going to the movies. But following a year that broke the record for the most school shootings in more than four decades, we wanted to not only understand if/how Americans’ anxiety has changed, we wanted to paint a picture of what all of this gun violence is doing to our teachers.
