About
Securly Aware is the leading student wellness monitoring solution built specifically for K-12 school districts. Powered by a nuanced AI engine, Aware continuously analyzes student online activity across school devices — including social media, email, Google Docs, conversational AI platforms, and web browsing — to detect warning signs of anxiety, depression, cyberbullying, self-harm, and potential violence in real-time. The platform assigns dynamic wellness levels to students and delivers immediate, actionable alerts to school staff 24/7 or during school hours based on district preferences. Human analysts augment AI detections to reduce noise and ensure every critical alert receives appropriate attention. Aware also features proactive preventative mental health screening that identifies students showing early signs of distress before their behavior triggers an at-risk flag, enabling earlier, more effective intervention. School counselors and administrators benefit from a streamlined case management system that tracks every alert from creation to resolution, ensuring no student falls through the cracks — even in under-resourced districts. An integrated teacher AI assistant makes it simple for educators to log observed student behavior, combining human insights with AI analysis for a more complete picture of student wellness. Trusted by over 3,050 districts, Securly Aware currently safeguards 13.8 million students by analyzing 75 million activities daily. It is ideal for district IT leaders, student services teams, school counselors, and administrators committed to proactive student safety.
