Raptor Technologies provides a visitor-management system to public and private schools. Visitors provide their driver’s license at the front desk, and the school captures their information, checks it against Raptor's proprietary database of registered sex offenders and local restraining orders, and accepts or rejects the visitor.
Jim Vesterman, a Wharton MBA and former Marine Special Forces operator, acquired Raptor in 2012. The company serves more than 24,000 schools nationwide, and in 2018 reported a 40% growth year-over-year.
