Raptor Technologies and Vivi integrated visual alert solution promises faster emergency response in schools

The new integration is said to provide K-12 schools with real-time, location-specific communication across all school displays.

Raptor Technologies, a school safety technology provider, has worked with Vivi, a classroom engagement platform, to create visual communication designed to enhance emergency response in schools.

The strategic partnership between the two organizations will enable schools to instantly broadcast visual and text-based alerts to classroom and campus screens. This aims to provide faster, clearer and more effective communication during critical incidents.

Raptor says schools will be given the option to integrate Vivi’s visual alert capabilities with its Raptor Emergency Management system, including schools using its wearable panic solution, Raptor Badge Alert. This will provide emergency coverage to schools with connectivity issues or where wi-fi or cellular networks are unreliable.

“With this partnership, Raptor Technologies continues to fulfill its mission to protect every child, every school, every day,” explains Gray Hall, CEO at Raptor Technologies. “By integrating Vivi’s visual alerts with Raptor Emergency Management, we’re empowering schools with a comprehensive emergency response solution that strengthens situational awareness, speeds response times and enhances the value of critical alerts when it matters most.”

“Our collaboration with Raptor Technologies represents a significant step forward in K-12 safety,” adds Natalie Mactier, CEO at Vivi. “The integration with Raptor Emergency Management provides schools with a scalable, dependable system that enhances their emergency response protocols. By combining Raptor’s established technologies with Vivi’s visual alerts, we’re creating a safer space for learning.”

Raptor and Vivi say the system will help schools meet the requirements of Alyssa’s Law, which requires all public elementary and secondary school buildings to be equipped with a silent panic alarm connected to local law enforcement. The legislation has already passed in several U.S. states and is pending in many others. 

The law was named after Alyssa Alhadeff, who was a 14-year-old student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High school in Florida, the site of a mass shooting in 2018. School shootings continue to be a problem in the U.S., with 23 school shootings reported in 2025 to date, and 83 incidents in 2024.

The latest news from Raptor follows shortly after it partnered with the Georgia Alliance of School Resource Officers and Educators (GASROE) to launch a new statewide behaviour threat assessment solution for Georgia’s K-12 schools.
