Large companies, well-known venues, and sports stadiums are installing Evolv systems today; e.g. Coca-Cola, Six Flags theme parks, the Lincoln Center, Wynn Resorts, and the Chicago Cubs.

Evolv can lower screening costs by up to 70%; e.g. the Tennessee Titans. Before Evolv, the Titans used about 100 traditional metal detectors. In total, it took 280 security staff to man them all. After installing 17 Evolv Express units, the Titans saw a 66% decrease in staff to just 94 per game. That saved them tens of thousands of dollars, and they also saw an increase in catching prohibited items. It used to be a 30-minute wait to enter the stadium, that wait went to nearly 0 immediately and fan satisfaction doubled from 2.3 to 4.6 out of a 5.0 score. Other NFL teams have since adopted the technology at their stadiums.

The Evolv Express Detection System is also growing in popularity with schools and government. The size of the related security industry Evolv operates in is massive and budgets are ever growing.
