Reception deskPaid add-on

Every guest at the door, straight to the right table.

Send a link to whoever meets your guests: a hired host, a cousin, the venue’s staff. They type the name a guest gives, read out the table and mark the family in, while your board keeps count.

A paid add-on, switched on for your event. Pricing is announced at launch.

The door screen

Three things the person at the door needs. Nothing else.

Written for somebody who was handed the job fifteen minutes ago and never saw the screen before. Try it: type a surname in any alphabet.

  1. Find a name in any alphabetForgiving the alphabet it is typed in: “Cohen” finds “Коэн”, and Hebrew finds Latin.
  2. Say the tableThe table number in large type, because it is what almost every guest asks first.
  3. Mark them inOne tap for the whole family, a stepper for the evening three of four turn up, and five seconds to undo.
  4. Share the routeA late guest rings from the road: the venue’s name, address and a Waze link go out through the phone’s own share menu.

Guest tablet

A queue at the entrance, and nobody free to meet it

A second kind of link turns a tablet or a phone on a stand into “Find your table”. Guests type the start of their name in any of the three alphabets and see their table. That is all it does, on purpose.

An older woman types her name on a tablet on a stand at a venue entrance while her granddaughter smiles beside her.
Try as a guest

Find your table

Clears itself after 30 inactive seconds, so the next guest never sees the last one’s table.

What the tablet cannot do

  • It cannot mark anybody in, note a walk-in or show the list.
  • It answers with a name and a table, never a phone, a reply or the size of a party.
  • “Not on the list” and “not seated yet” get the same answer, so it never tells a stranger who is invited.

Somebody who is not on the list

The plus-one nobody recorded. The neighbours who came to say congratulations.

It happens at every event. The door writes them down, and the screen says plainly what that does and does not do, so a hired host never promises what nobody granted.

Not on the list

NameNatalia Gold
How many people2
Who did they come with?Rina & David Levi
Phone (optional)Only so the organisers know who it was.
Let them into the photo galleryOnly on a link where you allowed it. Then the phone is required: they sign in with a code sent to it.

This goes to the organisers. It creates no guest and opens no photo gallery.

Afterwards, you decide

  1. 1Dismiss itA note you read and let go.
  2. 2Add them to the guest listThey become a guest, recorded as having arrived.
  3. 3Add them to an invitationWhen the door noted who they came with, they join that guest’s party.

Handing the link to venue staff you do not know? Switch off writing down walk-ins when you create it.

Who stands at the door

Anyone you send the link to. Two entrances included.

No account, no app and no training: the link opens the board on the day of the event. The father let in at one door and the children at the other add up to one family, not two.

A family with two children is welcomed at one entrance of a bright event hall, while a host greets friends at a second entrance.
  • A link, sent the way you send anything

    Mint it in the panel and forward it on WhatsApp an hour before the doors open.

  • Two doors, one count

    Each door sees the other’s marks without a reload, and counts never go above the invitation.

  • Only on the day

    On any other day the link shows no list at all, just which event it is for and when to come back.

  • Off at once

    Switching a link off is immediate and final. Expired and switched-off links each get their own plain screen.

The door sees

  • Names, in every alphabet
  • Table numbers
  • How many people each invitation expects
  • Who already came, and at which door

The door never sees

  • Phone numbers
  • Notes about a guest
  • Gifts
  • Email addresses
  • RSVP history

When the wifi drops

Honest about a weak signal

Venue wifi has dead spots. Here is exactly what holds and what does not, so the person at the door knows before the evening starts.

  1. OnlineMarks go straight to your board.
  2. No signal3 marks are waiting on this phone. Do not reload.
  3. Back onlineThe waiting marks sent themselves.

What keeps working

  • Marks made without signal wait on the phone and send themselves when it returns.
  • They also survive a reload with signal and an update of the platform mid-evening.
  • A mark sent twice never counts a family twice.

What it cannot do

  • The guest list is not stored on the phone. Reload with no signal and the screen opens onto nothing.
  • So while marks are waiting, the banner says not to reload, and the browser asks before the page is closed.

Join early access and tell us about your evening. The reception desk is a paid add-on, switched on per event.

Your side of the door

The same board, on your screen

In the panel you see who has come through each door, the links you handed out, and everyone who arrived without being on the list.

  • Fix a mis-tap from here, in the same shape it was made at the door.
  • Arrivals stay apart from the final headcount you record in “Gifts and attendance”.
  • Hosts, such as the parents, can open the board and watch the arrivals.
  • A phone number taken at the door opens the photo gallery for that guest the same evening.

Built for

Who the reception desk is for

  • Couples and their parents

    Hundreds of guests, three generations, and a cousin at the door who should not have to guess.

  • Hosts and greeters

    Hired or family, handed a link an hour before. Large type, plain buttons, nothing to learn.

  • Event planners and venues

    Two entrances, staff who change shifts, and a board that shows the arrivals as they happen.

  • Invitation-only business evenings

    A known guest list at the door, a table for each guest, and walk-ins noted for the organiser.

Also in the box

  • Paid add-on

    Reception desk

    Whoever meets your guests types the name a guest gives, finds the party, says the table, marks everyone in with a tap and writes down anyone not on the list.

  • Paid add-on

    Live screen

    Guest photos that passed screening play as a slideshow on the venue projector.

  • Included

    Calling rounds

    For the guests who have not answered: a ready list to work through from your own phone, each answer marked as you go. Or hand it to someone you trust with a private link.

  • Included

    Team roles

    Owner, editor, host and photo moderator, so every helper sees only what their role needs.

  • Included

    Activity log

    Who did what and when, kept for a year, for everyone working on your event.

  • Included

    Photo screening

    Every upload is checked automatically and, by default, waits for you to publish it.

  • Included

    Getting there and the entrance

    Sections of your invitation site with transport notes and an entrance guide, so fewer guests ring from the car park.

  • Included

    Charts for the venue

    Per-table charts and a hall map to scale, printed from your seating plan.

  • Coming soon

    Entry by QR code

    Each guest gets a personal code with the invitation, and the door scans it instead of searching for the name.

The organiser panel

Before the doors open and after they close

Two tabs that matter most around the reception desk: who really came and what they gave, and who on your team may do what.

Who came, and what each guest gave

Record each gift as it comes in, money or an item. The panel puts who came next to who said they would.

  • Gifts per guest: money or an item, with amount and currency
  • Real attendance next to the RSVP count, with every mismatch flagged
  • The thank-you round starts from who really came
