SoundThinking, formerly known as ShotSpotter®, is a leading public company creating industry-leading law enforcement tools and community-focused solutions for non-law enforcement entities to utilize for a holistic approach to violence prevention, social services and economic assistance.

With its new SafetySmart Platform™, an integrated suite of four data-driven tools that enable law enforcement and community violence prevention and health organizations, the partnership with Fusus brings more efficient, effective, and equitable solutions to drive positive public safety outcomes through the Fusus platform.

This partnership has already proven to be a valuable collaboration and powerful resources for agencies across the country when solving gun-related crimes was critical. Both tools have been crucial in enhancing situational awareness and intelligence, investigations, and improving response capabilities for first responders. 

Integrated into the platform is:

• ShotSpotter is an acoustic gunshot detection system that alerts police to virtually all gunfire within a coverage area in less than 60 seconds, helping reduce police response times to gun crimes and save lives.
  
  
• CrimeTracer™ is a law enforcement search engine that enables investigators to search through more than 1 billion criminal justice records from across jurisdictions to generate tactical leads and quickly make intelligent connections.
  
  
• CaseBuilder™ is a one-stop investigative management system for tracking, reporting, and collaborating on cases. It produces a single electronic courtroom-ready document to help prosecutors clear cases and take offenders off the streets.
  
  
• ResourceRouter™ is software that directs the deployment of patrol and community anti-violence resources in an objective way to help maximize the impact of limited resources and improve community safety.

Successes have led Manchester Police in New Hampshire to launch both ShotSpotter and Fusus with each other for the safety of their schools. There are also criminal events that have highlighted their effectiveness for homicide cases for places like Rocky Mount, North Carolina. 

“ShotSpotter established the acoustic gunshot detection category more than 25 years ago,” said SoundThinking CEO Ralph Clark. “As the public safety landscape has evolved, we have evolved with it. In a time of rising crime, police staffing shortages, and the need for greater transparency and accountability, we are offering a platform of data-driven technologies that can make the policing profession better by helping law enforcement improve their community partnerships and above all, protect residents in the community. At SoundThinking, we are passionate about helping law enforcement and civic leadership couple technology with best practices to strive for optimal public safety outcomes.”
