Evolv Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV) is proud to announce that its AI-based bag screening solution, Evolv eXpedite™, has now screened over one million bags since launching last year. Evolv is a leading security technology company pioneering advanced solutions designed to create safer experiences. Evolv’s flagship product, Evolv Express^®, has screened over 3B people worldwide as part of security operations for iconic venues, leading theme parks and professional sports stadiums as well as school and hospital systems.

Evolv eXpedite is an autonomous, high-speed bag screener that uses AI and X-ray imaging to detect potential threats in bags and distinguish them from many everyday items. The system works automatically without requiring a person to interpret the image. With over one million bags screened across Evolv’s customer base, this milestone is a powerful signal of eXpedite’s impact backed by real-world performance data.

Early deployment results of eXpedite show a ~2% alert rate in education settings, demonstrating strong promise in balancing detection with the goal of keeping false alarm rates low. This helps security teams focus on real threats while maintaining a smooth flow for students, staff, and visitors.

Together, eXpedite and Express create a unified system, enabling people to walk through security at the pace of life. Express screens individuals while eXpedite screens bags, enabling a thorough and efficient security checkpoint. Security operators receive alerts from both systems through a single integrated tablet interface, and all available data is accessible through the MyEvolv Portal. The cloud-connected integration of Express and eXpedite underscores the Company’s goal of creating centralized and efficient security operations.

Spartanburg District Five Schools exemplifies the impact of Evolv’s integrated checkpoint, with four eXpedite units and 29 Evolv Express systems deployed across 14 schools.

“We are setting a new standard for proactive school safety, providing peace of mind for families, staff, and students while keeping the focus on learning,” said Ryan Cothran, Director of Safety and Emergency Services for Spartanburg District Five Schools. “[Evolv] products add an important layer of security while being fast and innovative and without disrupting the flow of the school day, helping us keep students and staff safe.”

“We are driven to create safer experiences where visitors can enter a building efficiently. This latest milestone demonstrates Evolv’s dedication to advancing security technology and achieving our ultimate goal: detecting threats with minimal impact on people’s lives,” said John Kedzierski, CEO of Evolv Technology.

With over one million bags screened in its first year, Evolv eXpedite’s cloud-connected checkpoint demonstrates a commitment to helping make places safer for people to live, work, learn, and play.
