New AI-driven timeline, proactive alerts, and smarter intercoms help schools investigate incidents in seconds, respond to threats in real-time, and improve communication.
SANย MATEO, Calif., Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Verkada, a leader in AI-powered physical security technology, today launched a new set of AI-driven safety tools designed specifically to help schools strengthen security, accelerate incident response, and simplify investigations.
"With these updates, Verkada is enabling schools to leverage AI as a force multiplier for campus safety, delivering greater clarity into incidents, better real-time alerts, and improved communication tools," said Abraham Alvarez, Vice President of Product at Verkada. "By integrating investigation, alerting, and communication into one secure platform, schools can better protect their students, staff, and campuses."
AI-Powered Unified Timeline
A first-of-its-kind feature, Verkada's AI-Powered Unified Timeline allows school security teams to visually reconstruct the entire journey of a person or vehicle across campus with a single click. Instead of manually searching through hours of camera footage across multiple cameras, school safety leaders can now generate a complete, map-based timeline of events in seconds. This capability is designed to accelerate investigations such as tracking a missing student, monitoring suspicious behavior, or coordinating emergency response.
Proactive AI-Powered Alerts
To help schools detect threats before they escalate, Verkada expanded its AI-Powered Alerts with two new capabilities:
Smarter, Auto-Transcribed Intercoms
Verkada also introduced new accessibility and communication features for its intercom platform:
These AI-powered features allow schools to move from reactive monitoring to proactive safety management. From investigating complex incidents in seconds to receiving intelligent alerts on high-risk activity, Verkada's platform helps school leaders and security staff keep students safe, manage emergencies more effectively, and support diverse communities with accessible communication tools.
These tools are designed to provide school leaders with critical information while operating within district-approved privacy policies, ensuring the focus remains on student safety. New features are available immediately to all Verkada customers.
