Evolv is recommending mantraps to schools using an ex-army specialist turned salesperson, pitching how these configurations can trap children with suspected weapons.
However, advocating for this tactic contradicts Evolv’s core value proposition – “seamless” weapons detection. It also exposes a fundamental business challenge Evolv faces selling to schools – providing a solution that can stop mass shootings, see: Evolv "Has Never Stated" They "Could Have Made A Difference in Uvalde".
In this report, IPVM examines Evolv's proposed solution and the problems associated with proposing and using mantraps (or in this context, kidtraps) in schools.
