Insights
In public safety, speed and clarity can define strategy. Insights transforms static reports into a real-time decision engine that works from day one with no complex setup required. Built for command staff, analysts, and detectives alike, it delivers advanced analytical power through an interface anyone can navigate.
Filter and drill into data by time, location, event type, and more to reveal peak activity, high-demand areas, and resource-intensive individuals without hours of manual wrangling. From spotting emerging trends to evaluating deployment and measuring results, Insights gives agencies the flexibility to move seamlessly from big-picture strategy to the operational detail that drives action. With it, you don’t just analyze the past, you act on the present.
The end of static reporting
FMStat is a real-time analytics dashboard that gives command staff a clear and flexible view of their communities, helping them spot trends and issues as they develop. It provides a fully dynamic view of agency data, allowing you to move seamlessly from a strategic overview of crime trends and emerging issues to an operational, evidence-based view of what’s driving them.
By pulling live information from critical systems of record, FMStat replaces inflexible reports with real-time insights, saving hours of analytical work each week and freeing staff from the time-consuming task of compiling static reports. The result is faster decisions, stronger operational awareness, and measurable results. Traditional CompStat provides numbers. FMStat provides decisions and results.
Connections made clear, decisions made faster
Network Graph introduces an interactive, visual way to explore the links between people, events, and other entities within ForceMetrics. From the Person Page, it maps individuals directly connected to the selected person and the events they share, providing a clearer picture than static list views. By surfacing connections and patterns in a visual format, the Network Graph helps reveal relationships, identify clusters, and deliver faster, more actionable context.
Future updates will extend these capabilities to include vehicles and other key entities, creating a wider view of relationships and activity.
Every record, every system, instantly searchable
Agencies make better-informed decisions when they can access the right information instantly. ForceMetrics Search is where the power of our Universal Data Model meets unmatched speed and precision.
Whether it’s structured records, full written reports, or unstructured content, all of your data is fully searchable. Data is unified and indexed from across jurisdictions and multiple generations of CAD, RMS, JMS, and other systems of record, making historical, current and regional information instantly accessible. Intuitive filters and complex data aggregations reveal connections that might otherwise be missed. The result is a search experience that scans millions of records in sub-second time, giving agencies the speed, clarity, and confidence to act.
Break down silos
For agencies, decades of critical information often sit locked away in siloed, incompatible systems. Our unified data access changes that by bringing CAD, RMS, and JMS data together into a single, integrated platform.
Our universal data model connects not only your current systems of record, but multiple generations of those systems, making historical and current information fully accessible and searchable.
What was once scattered across disconnected databases becomes a complete, connected view of your agency’s data, enabling users to find relevant information in seconds and see links that were previously hard to find, or impossible to uncover, in legacy systems.
Go beyond jurisdictional limits
Public safety challenges don’t stop at jurisdictional borders, and neither should your data. This feature connects agency systems across city, county, or regional lines, bringing together information on individuals, vehicles, and locations, even from different generations and vendors of your critical systems.
By combining data from neighboring departments into one unified view, agencies can uncover connections, track patterns, and surface insights that would be difficult or impossible to find in isolation. The result is faster answers, stronger situational awareness, and a clearer picture of the challenges that span your region.
Identify with speed and certainty
Knowing exactly who you are dealing with is critical. By combining your agency’s records with cross-jurisdictional data, Person Photos display stored images and mugshots directly within the platform for quick visual confirmation. This added context helps ensure the right person is identified, supporting faster and more confident decisions in the field and at the station.
When seconds matter, having a complete and accurate view of a person can change the outcome. Person Page brings together everything your agency knows, as well as what neighboring jurisdictions can contribute, into a single unified profile.
See key identifiers such as date of birth, age, and other attributes alongside person photos, officer safety alerts, related events, associated people, vehicles, and addresses.
Safety Signals from related events add additional context, while linked individuals and events make it easy to explore relationships. By consolidating and enriching data across multiple systems, Person Page delivers a clearer, more complete understanding of the person in front of you.
Know the place, know the pattern
Understanding a location often means piecing together information from countless records, a process that can take hours or days of manual effort. Location Page does it in seconds. By aggregating data from multiple systems, including your agency’s records and enriched public and private sources, it creates a single unified view of any address or location. Location details, premise history, associated calls for service, incidents, people, and vehicles are brought together in one place.
Built-in time analysis highlights trends such as peak days and hours of activity, while location-specific Safety Signals add immediate context.
Every Location Page is generated dynamically, allowing users to drill into specific events, filter for deeper context, and uncover patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Two-way LPR integration
Agencies need vehicle activity data in context, not in isolation. Our LPR integration combines license plate recognition data from several popular LPR and ALPR providers with ForceMetrics’ unified platform, giving a fuller picture of vehicle activity, connected people, and related events.
This two-way integration enriches both systems, allowing information to flow seamlessly and link directly between platforms. By eliminating the need to manually search and cross-reference multiple systems, it saves hours of investigative time each week while delivering a smoother workflow, faster answers, and a more coordinated response.
Insights & analytics
Seeing where activity concentrates is essential for planning and response. Map turns ForceMetrics Search results into an interactive geospatial view so supervisors, analysts, and command staff can understand patterns at a glance.
Use familiar pan and zoom controls, filter by time, area, and event type, and toggle map layers to focus on what matters. Clusters and hotspots help reveal concentrations of activity. Every point is clickable with a preview that shows key details, and you can pivot directly to the related event, person, vehicle, or location pages for deeper context.
Map brings cross-jurisdictional and multi-generation data together in one place, reducing manual map work and helping teams move from questions to answers in seconds.
AI-powered advantage
Our platform uses AI to turn overwhelming amounts of public safety data into clear, actionable insights. It can quickly summarize large volumes of reports, spot patterns across related incidents or people, and group information into meaningful topics and categories. With advanced search and correlation, it also helps uncover hidden connections between events, entities, and locations.
Our customizable Safety Signals highlight critical risks and officer safety concerns in real time, while AI Assistants extract context from analytical charts and unstructured text, making complex data easier to understand and act on. Together, these capabilities reduce manual workload, accelerate decision making, and give first responders and command staff the clarity they need to act with speed and confidence.
