Students Are Vaping.
Know When It Happens.
Zeptive helps school administrators detect vaping, respond quickly, and create the accountability that helps deter vaping at school.
You don’t need someone standing outside every restroom.
You don’t need cameras in private spaces.
And you don’t have to wait for another student to tell you what happened.
Used by thousands of schools across the country
Real schools. Real administrators. Real results.
How Much Vaping Are You Not Seeing?
You may already know students are vaping.
The harder question is: How often is it happening when no one is watching?
Vape devices are small, easy to conceal, and can produce very little odor. And bathrooms create an unavoidable blind spot. Schools need to protect student privacy, which means administrators often have to rely on rumors, student reports, unusual behavior, or simply being in the right place at the right time.
Zeptive gives schools visibility where cameras don’t belong.
Instead of wondering whether vaping is happening, administrators can know when there’s something worth investigating.
Your Staff Has Better Things to Do Than Guard a Bathroom
Staff presence can discourage vaping. But only while someone is there.
A teacher gets pulled into a classroom. An administrator responds to another issue. A staff member has another responsibility. And suddenly the restroom is unwatched again.
Zeptive gives administrators visibility without requiring someone to continuously monitor the area.
When vaping is detected, designated staff can receive an alert and respond.
Instead of spending time waiting for something to happen, your team can focus its attention when there is actually something to investigate.
From Suspicion to Something You Can Act On
Respond With Evidence, Not Just Suspicion
A vape alert isn’t necessarily the end of an investigation. It’s the beginning of a better one.
Schools can use Zeptive alongside their existing procedures — checking hallway cameras, identifying who entered or exited the restroom, sending an administrator to the location, and following established school policies.
That creates a much clearer path from: “We think something happened.”
to: “Here’s why we’re investigating.”
DETECTION → ALERT → VERIFY → RESPOND
Zeptive detects an event.
Sensors monitor privacy-sensitive areas such as restrooms for signs associated with vaping.

Your team gets an alert.
Designated staff are notified so they know where attention may be needed.

Students learn there is accountability.
When alerts are consistently followed by a response, vaping becomes much harder to do unnoticed.
Built for the Realities of a School
Put It Where You Need It
No convenient power where vaping is happening?
Wireless and battery-powered deployment options can make it easier to begin in locations where wiring is difficult, with wired options available where appropriate.

Get the Right Alert to the Right Person
Administrators, maintenance teams, and other designated staff can receive notifications relevant to their responsibilities.

Know When Someone Tampers With It
If a student attempts to interfere with a detector, administrators don’t have to wait until someone happens to notice.

Gain Visibility Into More Than Vaping
Depending on deployment and configuration, schools may also gain useful awareness of excessive noise, disruptive behavior, and other restroom-related incidents.
Will Zeptive Work at Your School?
The easiest way to find out may be to start small.
Tell us where you’re having the biggest problem — one restroom, one building, one middle school, or an entire district.
We’ll help you identify a practical place to begin.
Your Students Already Know Where They Can Get Away With Vaping.
Let’s change that.
Talk with Zeptive about what’s happening at your school.
No obligation. Tell us where vaping is creating the biggest challenge and how your campus is laid out. We’ll help you determine whether Zeptive makes sense and where you could start.
Detection Creates Accountability.
Accountability Creates Deterrence.
Something changes once students realize vaping can trigger an alert — and that an adult is likely to respond.
They start thinking differently about where and when they vape.
At Joshua Christian Academy, administrators told students the detectors had been installed. Students tested them. The alarm activated. They quickly learned that an alert could be followed by an administrator showing up.
At Crow Creek, a demo unit generated an alert within roughly 20 minutes, leading staff to an incident. Word spread.
At Monson High School, vaping in the initial deployment areas dropped dramatically after students became accustomed to the system.
It’s to create enough accountability that fewer students try in the first place.
Start Where the Problem Is Worst.
Keep It Simple to Start.
You don’t have to deploy across an entire district on day one.
Several schools started small.
-
Rifle Middle School began with two units and expanded.
-
Monson High School started with two high-traffic gym bathrooms.
-
Joshua Christian Academy began at its South campus and later ordered additional sensors for its main campus.
-
Monterey piloted the technology before moving toward broader deployment.
-
Crow Creek valued the ability to deploy in areas where wired power wasn’t readily available.
Start with the restroom, building, or campus creating the biggest problem.
