Reach out to your Account Manager and request a license for Lightspeed Alert. Once you have an Alert license, Alert will appear under "Reports in Filter (Relay)" instead of Safety Check. You can then install the brand new Lightspeed Alert extension for Chrome that brings updated AI logic to more accurately capture completed words on the device, reducing traffic off devices, and noisy incidents. In addition, you will have access to Alert Agent 2.0 for Windows; iOS search terms; Google docs, sheets, slides, and cloud integration.
No, the Safety Specialist review queue is populated by the same Alert AI. However, our Safety Specialists will review every incident rather than every case.
While alerts are generated and sent within seconds of an incident to notify all stakeholders, our safety specialists reviewing incidents 24 hours a day will review and notify in within 20 minutes from incident to action, as part of our service-level agreement (SLA).
A holistic approach to student safety with alerts for self-harm, bullying, and school violence.
Get critical alerts across the internet—social media, online docs, email, YouTube, apps, browsers, search engines, and more—no matter where devices are used.
Lightspeed Alert includes an in-house team of trained reviewers 24/7/365, while competitors outsource their human review team to contractors without further training.
Partnered with Microsoft Education, Lightspeed Alert is able to integrate seamlessly with the Microsoft suite, including Microsoft® Teams.
Set alerts and notifications based on school, class, or user.
With Lightspeed Systems, I have been able to get my teachers invested into using Chromebooks in the classroom and feeling more comfortable with what students are capable of accessing in class.
