Gmail API-based alerting

GoGuardian Beacon
New Feature

Announcing a major expansion of GoGuardian Beacon's capabilities — API-based Gmail monitoring.


Get alerted when there’s concerning activity in a student’s school-issued Gmail account, regardless of the device they're using. Beacon's advanced API-based monitoring removes the noise, delivering alerts with clear context to counselors and other designated staff so they can take action quickly — and potentially save lives


How will Beacon’s API-based Gmail monitoring make a difference in your school?

  • Reduced noise, increased focus: Advanced API-based monitoring eliminates irrelevant emails, so you can focus on alerts that require attention.
  • Expanded coverage: Monitor student Gmail content whenever a student sends an email using their school-issued email address, regardless of the device they’re using.
  • Actionable Alert Card: Gain valuable context about Gmail conversations within alert cards to support informed and timely interventions.
  • Easy onboarding: Smooth setup means you can start monitoring school-issued Gmail accounts on any device without hours of training.
