WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), a leader in AI-powered weapons screening, today announced the release of Evolv eXpedite™ 3.0, the newest update to the company’s AI-powered bag screener. eXpedite 3.0 is built around three outcomes: showing operators exactly where to search when a bag alerts, delivering a stronger balance of knife detection against nuisance alerts*, and providing one connected view of people and bag screening. Evolv’s Red Box guided search, a new detection algorithm, and an upgraded MyEvolv portal connection deliver these benefits to customers.

Evolv eXpedite is an autonomous X-ray system that screens bags quickly without requiring staff to interpret X-ray images. The system analyzes each bag image, and, if it detects a potential threat, alerts staff for further inspection. In that moment, eXpedite 3.0 gives operators more context to resolve alerts with a Red Box identifying the area of potential concern.

Now see what alerted. Know where to search: Bag searches are high-pressure moments. Now operators start with direction rather than a guess. Every alert image carries a Red Box highlighting exactly where the system identified a potential threat in the bag, while operators follow their standard search procedures.

Enhanced detection performance: eXpedite 3.0 gives customers greater flexibility with expanded sensitivity options to support enhanced knife detection, along with refined alerting that reduces alerts from common items such as binders.

“Transitioning to eXpedite 3.0 has reduced our alert volume by 50%. By limiting unnecessary interruptions, we’ve significantly reduced the operational burden on our staff while ensuring students transition smoothly and efficiently to the building," said Nino Dicandia, Director of Safety and Security Hillsboro School District (MO).

The goal is to help customers find the threats and keep everything else moving. Five sensitivity levels let teams set detection to their own risk profile.

People and bag screening. One connected operation. Alert images, tags, and screening data for bags now come together with Evolv Express people scanning data, reporting in MyEvolv and Evolv Insights. Security leaders can review alerts and analyze operations of their entire fleet – both Express and eXpedite - from a phone or desktop, in one view.

Together, Evolv Express and Evolv eXpedite give security teams a layered approach to screening: Express screens people while eXpedite screens bags. With over 39 million bags screened across schools, hospitals, and entertainment venues, eXpedite 3.0 helps teams screen quickly, search with clarity, and keep people moving.

*Based on Evolv’s internal testing of eXpedite software versions 1.4, 2.0, and 3.0 using lab and field data, across a variety of threat and benign items, and F1 score analysis, showing improved knife detection versus 1.4 and lower nuisance alarm rates on binders than 2.0. Results do not reflect performance at any specific sensitivity mode and do not predict detection rates, alarm rates, or secondary-search rates at any customer site. Higher modes are designed for increased detection sensitivity and may result in increased nuisance alarms. Performance varies and may be impacted by factors including environment; bag clutter; threat type, size, composition, and orientation; venue policies and operations; and system settings.

Key Terms

f1 score technical

F1 score is a single-number measure of how well a predictive model balances two kinds of mistakes: false alarms and missed detections. Think of it as a single grade that rewards a tool that both finds real positives and avoids crying wolf; a higher F1 means the model is reliable at spotting true cases without producing too many false alerts. Investors use it to judge the quality of risk, fraud, or forecasting models that inform decisions.

qualified anti-terrorism technology (qatt) regulatory

Qualified anti-terrorism technology (QATT) is a government designation for security products or services judged effective against terrorist threats and granted special legal protections and recognition. Like a safety certificate that also limits the maker’s liability, QATT status can make a product more attractive to government and private buyers, reduce legal risk, and signal credibility—factors that can improve sales prospects and investor confidence.
