School web filtering for every OS is here

After months of testing, pilot studies, and rigorous feedback processes, Lightspeed Filter’s Smart Agents are here! We’re happy to announce Smart Agents for Windows, Mac and iOS are in general release with school web filtering for every OS.

This means you can deploy Smart Agents to your Windows, Mac, iOS and Chrome devices now. The best part? Because Filter lives in the cloud, school districts can set it up quickly — in as few as 15 minutes.

Smart Agents power Filter’s multi-OS filtering, making Filter the most robust, advanced, and flexible solution for K-12 education. To learn more about what makes Filter Smart Agents so smart, click here.

Here are just a few reasons why Smart Agents make Filter the best filter for K-12.

  • It has multi-OS support today. Other filtering solutions support only one or two operating systems. Their providers may promise that support for other OSes is on the way, but Filter is ready to support all your devices now. (Plus Filter filters every browser and app on those devices!)
  • No other solution handles iOS better. With iOS Smart Agents, all your devices are covered.
  • It decrypts SSL seamlessly. Get full URL reporting on critical SSL sites without the hassles of proxies, PAC files, or trust certificates. In other words, you’ll get URL-level details on traffic to YouTube, Google, social media sites, and other encrypted websites via Filter reports. (About half of all sites are encrypted.)
  • It combines a comprehensive URL database with artificial intelligence. Smart Agents allow our proprietary machine-learning database and real-time AI content analysis to filter all your devices. Filter is built on decades of experience filtering schools, so you won’t find a more advanced database or smarter AI in any other solution.
  • It has the most customizable policies. Filter allows schools to get granular with policies and set up filtering and management rules for a variety of scenarios.
  • It offers multi-OS device filtering and management in one UI. See activity for every device in a single interface.
    It can integrate with our classroom management solution. When you power your filtering with Filter, you can also get teacher tools as an additional Lightspeed Classroom Management component!
