The gate stops being an argument

Residents drive through without stopping. Every visitor, delivery and helper is recorded with a photograph and approved by the flat they came to see — so nobody has to take the guard's word for it, and the guard never has to take theirs.

Resident app: a delivery waiting for approval
The problem

A register book proves nothing

A visitor writes a name that may not be his, a flat number he may have guessed, and a time the guard fills in later. Three weeks on, when something has gone missing, the book answers none of it. Meanwhile residents queue behind that same book every evening.

End to end

What actually happens at the gate

1

A car arrives at the boom

The camera reads the plate before it stops. A registered member's vehicle opens the barrier by itself in about a second — no tag, no sticker, no card that can be lent to a friend.

2

An unknown plate goes to the guard

It is never refused automatically. The guard sees the plate and the verdict on his phone, and decides.

3

The guard records the visitor

Name, phone, who they have come to see, and a photograph — in about ten seconds. People on foot go through the same register.

4

The flat decides, from anywhere

The resident's phone rings with the request. Allow, decline, or set how long the visitor may stay. If nobody answers, the guard can still let them in — recorded as his decision.

5

They leave, and that is recorded too

The app knows who is still inside, so a visitor who never left is a question somebody can actually ask.

What you get

Beyond the barrier

Members and their vehicles

Every flat, every car and bike. A vehicle sold or a flat handed over is one edit, and the barrier stops opening for it that minute.

Approvals on the resident's phone

With the visitor's photograph. Residents who would rather not install anything simply drive through.

Dues, fines and receipts

Who owes what, what was collected, and by whom. Nothing can be deleted — only waived, with a reason.

An emergency button at the gate

Raised by the guard, seen by the committee at once, and recorded with who raised it and when.

Routine tasks

Tank cleaning, lift servicing, lights at dusk — assigned, ticked off and visible.

Records that answer questions

“Who was at the gate at 11 pm on the 4th” is a search with a photograph at the end of it, not an argument at the next meeting.

Who it suits

Buildings of 40 flats to townships of 5,000

The shape of the problem is the same; only the number of gates changes.

In useA 180-flat society in Mumbai: residents stopped queueing behind the visitor book, and the committee can answer who was at the gate at 11 pm on the 4th with a photograph instead of an argument.

Questions

Asked at almost every society

Do all residents need smartphones?

No. A registered vehicle opens the barrier whether or not anybody in that flat has installed anything, and a guard can always reach a flat the way he does now.

What about maids, tutors and daily help?

They go in the pedestrian register — logged in and out, the same as any visitor. Regulars get a pass so it is one tap rather than a form each morning.

Can the guard let somebody in without asking?

Yes, and that is deliberate — a barrier nobody can open at 2 am is a worse problem. But it is recorded as his decision, in his name, with his reason.

Who can see the photographs?

The society's own staff and the resident the visitor came to see. Gate photographs are deleted automatically after 180 days.

What does it cost?

STANDARD — entry and exit — is ₹1,18,999 + GST one time, or ₹5,199 a month on a 36-month rental. See all packages and prices.
