In development

The gate intercom,
on your phone.

Someone rings the gate. Your phone rings with it — at the office, in the car, on the third floor with your hands full. See who is there, talk to them, and let them in.

Tell me when it ships Android, working on real hardware today.

See who is there

The notification opens straight into the camera at the gate. No menu, no device list, no waiting for a tunnel to come up.

Talk back

Two-way audio while the call is live. Tell the courier to leave it at the door without going down for it.

Open either gate

Pedestrian gate and driveway gate are separate buttons, and both are one tap from the home screen widget.

One answer is enough

Whoever gets there first ends it for everyone. The ringing stops on every phone in the household at once, not just the one that answered.

A household, not an owner

Everyone who lives there is an equal admin. Nobody holds the keys to the others, and there is no single account the whole gate hangs from.

Guests, deliberately

A phone that asks to join gets in only when an admin says so. Access granted is access an admin can take back.

How it fits together

  1. 1

    Point it at your intercom

    Add the device once, with the intercom's own password. That password is what proves you live there.

  2. 2

    Invite the household

    Every phone that joins becomes an admin. Approve the ones you know, ignore the ones you do not.

  3. 3

    Forget about it

    The gate rings your phone from then on. The widget sits on the home screen for the times you already know who it is.

Not shipped yet.

It runs every day on the gate it was built for. Wider release comes once it handles intercoms it has never met. Send a line through the form and you will hear when that happens.
