LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GoGuardian, the brand that defined K-12 digital safety, supporting more than 25 million students and 10,000 schools nationwide, today announced its expansion into physical safety with the launch of GoGuardian Visitor, the most complete visitor management solution in K-12. Built to work more reliably than any solution on the market, GoGuardian Visitor keeps campus safer with a customizable check-in experience that is easy to use and works seamlessly on the devices schools already have – all for one flat price per site, per year.
Every visitor check-in is a safety decision, so every out-of-service kiosk or extra vendor charge forces schools to compromise. GoGuardian Visitor removes that compromise: every feature included, unlimited check-in stations, and nothing extra to buy.
“We’ve spent more than a decade earning schools’ trust by protecting students online. Physical safety was the logical extension to further our mission and continue to lead the way in keeping students safe,” said Rich Preece, CEO of GoGuardian. “So we built the most complete visitor management solution in K-12 and priced it so no school has to sacrifice safety because of budget.”
One reliable screening standard at every building:
- One standard, with schools in control. Districts apply consistent screening against sex offender records and custom watchlists at every building while schools keep ownership of their data and control over what visitor data is stored, all from the company schools already trust with their most sensitive information.
- Seamless check-in. Fully customizable workflows for simple self-service or staff-assisted check-in with photo capture, ID scanning, and automatic multi-language support. Integration with GoGuardian Hall Pass means passes are created automatically at student check-in or pickup, and visitor and student passes appear in one live view.
- Deep insights. Daily and weekly reports provide visitor history data, and AI flags anomalies and patterns and answers questions in plain English, so the record of who was on campus is accurate and easy to use.
- Everything included. Every feature and unlimited kiosks come in one flat price per site, per year. GoGuardian Visitor runs on the Chromebooks, iPads, and Windows devices schools already own and with most existing badge printers, so there is no hardware to buy and no add-on fee to add a check-in point.
“We built this to be seamless for IT, from first setup to everyday use. No hardware to buy. No per-kiosk licenses to track. No add-on fees to chase,” said Tyler Shaddix, Co-Founder & Chief Innovation Officer at GoGuardian. “When the most complete solution on the market is also the easiest one to roll out and the least expensive to own, there’s no decision left to agonize over.”
Integrated with the Hall Pass system schools already run
GoGuardian Visitor works seamlessly with GoGuardian Hall Pass, so the classrooms, staff, and students IT has already set up are ready on day one. When a student is checked in or picked up, a pass is created automatically. That means one setup instead of another standalone system to integrate, secure, and support.
Every feature. Unlimited kiosks. One flat price per site, per year. GoGuardian Visitor is available now at goguardian.com/visitor.
