SoundThinking announces seven new customers, expanded coverage areas

SoundThinking announced a total of 7 new customers and expanded coverage areas for its flagship ShotSpotter gunshot detection system. In the first quarter of 2024, the company secured multiple agreements with municipalities implementing ShotSpotter for the first time or significantly increasing their existing coverage areas, while other cities also went live with newly deployed ShotSpotter technology. In New Jersey, 4 municipalities either expanded or went live with ShotSpotter. These include expansions in Paterson, Camden County and Newark, where coverage areas significantly increased. Additionally, Bergen County has implemented ShotSpotter for the first time, further expanding the technology’s footprint to 14 total municipalities across the state. These bookings are being funded by a $7 million New Jersey state funding initiative specifically for acoustic gunshot detection in order to improve law enforcement agencies response to community gunfire. This momentum is not limited to the Northeast as SoundThinking has seen growing adoption on the West Coast as well. The city of Lancaster, California recently joined Pico, Hawaiian Gardens, and Pasadena in deploying ShotSpotter’s acoustic gunshot detection capabilities in the greater Los Angeles area. Finally, SoundThinking is pleased to announce a new ShotSpotter deployment in New Bern, North Carolina.
