SoundThinking, Inc. announced on March 4, 2025, a three-year agreement to deploy its ShotSpotter acoustic gunshot detection solution in Niterói, Brazil. This deployment will cover 10 square kilometers in the city, which has nearly 500,000 residents. The contract is valued at approximately $1.7 million in aggregate.
This agreement marks SoundThinking’s return to Brazil, the largest country in South America, and builds upon the company’s successful deployment and expansion in Montevideo, Uruguay. Mayor Rodrigo Neves of Niterói stated that ShotSpotter will allow for an immediate response by security forces, helping to save lives and combat violence.
The ShotSpotter system will be integrated with Niterói’s Integrated Public Security Center (CISP), a sophisticated security infrastructure that includes numerous cameras and monitoring devices. This partnership reflects SoundThinking's commitment to working with forward-thinking municipalities to enhance public safety through advanced technology worldwide. ShotSpotter is expected to go live in Niterói in the second quarter of 2025.
