We want to free up staff from repetitive tasks so they can focus on what truly matters: creating more personal, and more meaningful experiences for the people they serve. How? We combine advanced IoT sensors, smart algorithms, and industry expertise from our esteemed partners to automate operations in complex environments. We work with airports, correctional facilities, banks, healthcare institutions and more. Our mission: help organizations do more with fewer people and do it consistently better.
In an environment where staff are increasingly hard to find, GRASP helps correctional facilities protect inmate wellbeing through smart automation. Our contactless technology detects health issues, such as suicide or cardiac distress, before staff can notice them, ensuring faster response and safer outcomes. Fully privacy-safe and GDPR-compliant, GRASP enables facilities to do more with fewer people, and do it consistently better. Already trusted in over 100 facilities across the USA, Canada, and Australia.
