Omnilert Named to 2026 Public Sector AI 50 for Threat Detection

The accolade centers on the firm's ability to repurpose existing camera infrastructure into intelligent sensors. Unlike standard video analytics that merely flag activity, the Omnilert platform triggers automated workflows—such as locking doors, alerting first responders, and broadcasting emergency notifications—the moment a firearm is detected. The system currently integrates with more than 50 security technologies, allowing for enterprise-scale deployment without requiring a total overhaul of legacy hardware.

CEO Dave Fraser emphasized that the platform is designed to assist, rather than replace, human personnel during high-stress scenarios. This operational approach has gained significant traction in large-scale environments, most notably within Baltimore County Public Schools, where the technology monitors roughly 8,000 cameras across 180 facilities. The company also holds a Full SAFETY Act Designation from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, a certification that underscores the reliability of its anti-terrorism technology. By focusing on non-biometric, weapon-specific detection, Omnilert continues to position itself as a central player in the modernization of public safety protocols.
