American Time and Raptor Technologies Integrate Systems to Enhance School Safety Communication
American Time's EverAlert system now integrates with Raptor Technologies' Emergency Management System to provide unified campus safety communication that combines daily operational tools with emergency response capabilities.
The integration between American Time's EverAlert system and Raptor Technologies' Emergency Management System represents a significant advancement in school safety infrastructure. This combined solution delivers rapid, consistent, and automated campus-wide communications for both everyday use and critical emergencies, addressing the growing need for comprehensive safety protocols in educational institutions.
The partnership builds on the daily utility of EverAlert while harnessing Raptor's advanced emergency response workflows. EverAlert supports daily synchronized time scheduling, announcements, and audiovisual messaging across classrooms, hallways, and common areas. Because these devices serve as trusted, everyday sources of information, occupants instinctively turn to them during critical events for reliable emergency guidance, creating a foundation of familiarity that proves crucial during actual emergencies.
Through Raptor Connect™, EverAlert ties directly into Raptor Technologies' automated emergency response sequences. When a crisis alert is activated—such as a lockdown or evacuation—EverAlert instantly carries out pre-configured messaging and instructions across designated zones. This automation minimizes manual steps and accelerates coordinated response, potentially saving critical seconds during emergency situations. The system ensures synchronized response across all devices, with displays and speakers broadcasting appropriate messages, tones, and instructions campus-wide or to targeted zones.
The integration supports The "I Love U Guys" Foundation's Standard Response Protocol (SRP), giving schools a nationally recognized framework with clear, shared vocabulary for emergency response. This standardization helps ensure compliance with mandates such as Alyssa's Law, which requires silent panic alert systems directly linked to law enforcement. Schools and districts already using Raptor or EverAlert can adopt the integration without reworking their existing system architecture, making implementation more accessible and cost-effective.
Chris Noell, Chief Product Officer at Raptor Technologies, emphasized that "Standardization, speed and familiarity save lives. By bringing together Raptor, SRP, and EverAlert, we are helping communicate instantly and consistently across every corner of a campus." Tim Leung, VP of Engineering & Operations at American Time, added that "EverAlert's strength lies in being both a daily operations tool and a crisis awareness system. Because students and staff already engage with EverAlert for schedules and announcements, they trust and understand its messaging when emergencies occur."
This nationwide availability provides districts with a unified solution for everyday communication and emergency management that aligns with national safety protocols. The integration represents a practical approach to school safety that leverages existing infrastructure while enhancing emergency response capabilities.
