"We are committed to fostering a learning environment where our students feel safe and respected. We proactively pursued the GiveEvolv program on the premise that it would serve as a key enabler of this mission."
“Being involved with MLS’ newest expansion team, St. Louis CITY SC, was really exciting, especially since I grew up playing soccer in St. Louis. Providing a safe, clean and friendly environment for our guests is our first priority."
"I’ve been waiting years for someone to invent a technology where you can just freely walk through the concealed weapons detector without needing to empty out your pockets and take everything out of your bags as part of the screening process.”
“We have a tight-knit security community in Pittsburgh and frequently share best practices and input."
"The Open AI capability of Evolv helps ensure that the Express system is not deployed in a silo but rather as part of a broader ecosystem.”
“We’ve been working with Purple since 2019. Because of their fast growth, Purple needed an integrator to help implement a security standard."
"I was just blown away with the screening volume we were able to achieve. In a manner of 45 minutes, we processed around 18,000 concertgoers through ticketing and security screening.”
“Before the Bridgestone Arena opened, people never came down to this area."
“We have a variety of fans and patrons who come into the arena. When they come to the arena, they expect to have fun and do not want to wait in lines to get into the building, whether it’s families or season ticket holders for the Predators. At the same time, they also expect the environment to be safe.”
“With metal detectors, we could have one person walk through ingress every 15 seconds, and if they have nothing in their pockets or bag or on their body—which was fewer than half—they could pass into the arena. For just one person, once they went through the secondary screening check, you were looking at 90 seconds.”
“We open our gates 60 minutes before most matches and events. We might open 90 minutes ahead of a few special events. That said, the reality is the majority of fans and guests arrive in the last 15 minutes. We get maybe 15% to 25% of them in the first 45 minutes, and the remainder in a rush right before the match or event begins. We needed a technology that would scale to handle the influx we got at this last minute without sacrificing our security.”
“Evolv is a transformational technology that delivers a transformational experience—which is critical for an industry sector like ours where guest experience is not negotiable.”
"Our layers of security all contribute to safe learning and athletic environments. For example, we require and check IDs for all students in addition to having them pass through the Express lane.”
“Guests come to enjoy themselves and entrust us with their safety. We’re also responsible for the safety of our employees.”
“They created long queues and gave us a lot of false positives. Security screening could become a very lengthy process as they detected almost everything that was metal—belt buckles, zippers, keys. It was a very time-consuming process. Guests would become frustrated with the long waits—and it impacted their experience.”
