Scan, ring, connect

Your visitors don't need to download anything or create an account.

1

Scan the QR code

The visitor points their phone camera at the QR code on your door. Their browser opens instantly.

2

GPS verification

We confirm they're physically at your door, not someone trying to reach you remotely. This happens automatically.

3

Ring the bell

They tap a button, optionally share their name and reason for visiting (delivery, visitor, etc.).

4

Real-time chat

You receive a notification and tap to respond. Chat by text, then upgrade to voice or video if needed.

One QR code for the whole building

For apartment buildings and multi-unit complexes, a single QR code is placed at the building entrance. When a visitor scans it, they see a directory of units and select who they're visiting.

  • Visitors choose the unit from a clean directory
  • Only the selected unit's residents are notified
  • Unavailable or muted units appear greyed out
  • Each unit manages its own residents independently
  • No building-wide rollout required: individual units can join at any time

Smart notifications

Everyone gets notified. The first to respond takes the call.

📨

Simultaneous Alerts

Everyone at the location receives a notification at the same time via their preferred channel.

🏃

First Responder Wins

The first person to tap the notification link claims the session. Others are notified it's been handled.

🔐

Single-Use Links

Each notification contains a unique, single-use link that expires with the session. No reuse, no forwarding.

Start with text. Escalate if needed.

Every conversation begins as text chat. You control when it becomes more.

💬

Text Chat

The default. Fast, silent, and works everywhere. Powered by WebRTC peer-to-peer: no messages pass through our servers.

🎤

Voice Call

Need to talk? The resident can upgrade to voice with one tap. The visitor is asked for consent before audio begins.

📹

Video Call

See who's at the door. The resident initiates video: the visitor can never force it. Full control stays with you.
