SoundThinking (formerly ShotSpotter)

Short-staffed. High call volumes. Increased demands. For many law enforcement agencies, limited patrol resources aren’t just a challenge—they’re the reality. And when officers are stretched thin, response times increase, proactive policing suffers, and communities feel the impact. But what if you could maximize coverage without overextending your team? That’s exactly what agencies are doing with ResourceRouter—using real-time insights and historical data to proactively position resources where they’re needed most. The result? ✅ Faster Response Times ✅ Smarter Patrol Assignments ✅ Better Coverage, Even with Staffing Changes Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about numbers—it’s about ensuring officers have the support they need to protect and serve their communities. 💡 Read how agencies are making data-driven deployment a reality → https://lnkd.in/ejF3JjnK What’s been your biggest challenge in managing limited patrol resources? Let’s discuss👇

Law enforcement faces a critical choice: embrace AI and data science to improve public safety outcomes or risk saving fewer lives. Think about this: A gunshot rings out at 2:00 AM. The traditional process relies on someone hearing it, deciding to call 911, and trying to describe the location from inside their apartment without the benefit of being able to visually confirm the location. (That's assuming they call in the first place—as 80-90% of gunfire goes unreported.) Now imagine an AI-powered response with an audio-recording snippet of the incident. The digital process gives instant detection and the precise location of the gunshot. Officers can now respond minutes faster to the precise location versus driving around the neighborhood in circles. This isn’t science fiction - it's happening today. These AI-powered technologies transform police response and, as a result, save lives and capture and preserve evidence, which is critical in improving case closure rates. AI isn't replacing officers or human judgment either. AI prioritizes the effective use of limited resources where they need to be. Police departments struggling with staff shortages of 15-30% have a golden opportunity to alleviate some of this burden by leveraging AI. It's clear that AI and data science are transforming law enforcement’s ability to prevent crimes and protect communities. Be part of the solution and define the future of public safety. Give public safety leaders better tools to make faster, smarter decisions that save lives.

Even if a suspect flees from a shooting, #ShotSpotter helps direct deputies to where shell casings could be found as evidence and also linked to other cases. “We have been able to solve some homicides based on those shell casings,” Sheriff Davis said. He asked DA Howard to “expand that footprint of ShotSpotter.” ➡️https://lnkd.in/eB4QJKAp
