The front desk that knows who is coming.

A scheduled visit with a host, a kiosk on any iPad or tablet, an NDA signed at the door, and a package logged for its recipient. Inside the suite your team already opens every day.

What is a visitor check-in kiosk?

A visitor check-in kiosk is a tablet at the front desk where a guest signs in: who they are, who they came to see, and the documents they agree to. The paper sign-in sheet did the same job, with a pen that wandered off and a page anyone could read.

The dedicated visitor management products do it well, for a price per location that a small company feels. The front desk of a startup is one iPad on a stand, a few guests a day, and a courier at eleven. It does not need badge printers.

OrgOrg Visits runs the kiosk on any iPad or tablet with a browser. A host schedules the visit, the guest checks in by name or, with their consent, by face on the next visit, the NDA is signed on the screen, and a delivery is logged for its recipient. The visits sit beside the directory and the CRM, in the suite the team already uses.

Also known as
Visitor management system, guest sign-in app, iPad visitor sign-in, front desk kiosk, office guestbook.
How it differs from a sign-in sheet
A sheet records a name. A kiosk records the host, the document the guest signed, a photo, and the time, and it tells the recipient that the package arrived.

From the invitation to the signed copy.

Six things a front desk does, on one tablet.

The kiosk

Any iPad or tablet becomes the front desk.

Open the guestbook on the device, enter the one-time code from the Visits settings, and pick one of five themes. The screen shows the office Wi-Fi when you want it to, a clock, and a privacy mode. A second device pairs the same way.

Scheduled visits

The host knows who is coming, and the kiosk does too.

A host creates a visit with the guest, the purpose (an interview, a meeting, a social, a delivery), and notes. The Visits page shows what is scheduled and who has checked in. A walk-in checks in without a visit and names the person they came to see.

Check-in that knows the guest

A returning guest is greeted by name.

A guest types a name and a company and picks their host from the team. With the guest's consent, the kiosk takes a photo and recognizes the face on the next visit, so the second check-in is one tap.

Documents at the door

The NDA is signed before the badge would have been printed.

A template from the Documents app, an NDA or a visitor policy, is presented at check-in. The guest signs with a typed name, and the signed copy stays on the visit.

Deliveries

A package logged at the kiosk finds its recipient.

The courier picks the carrier and the recipient on the same screen. The recipient gets the notice in the inbox, by email, and in Slack, as every OrgOrg notice does.

The CRM remembers the visit

An office visit is a touch on the contact's timeline.

When the guest's email names a contact in the CRM, the check-in writes a visit on that contact, so the next conversation knows the last one happened in person.

Why the front desk belongs in the suite

The guest already has a place in your tools.

The host is in the directory. The guest is in the CRM. The document is in Documents. A visitor product that stands alone has to be told all three, and told again when they change.

One directory

The host list is the team.

A guest picks the person they came to see from the people who work here, kept current by the same directory the org chart reads. Nobody maintains a second list of hosts.

One document

The NDA is a template, not an upload.

The visitor policy is a template in the Documents app, with versions. The kiosk presents the current one and keeps the signed copy with the version the guest saw.

One price

No price per location, kiosk, or visit.

Visits is one of the apps in the suite. Free for teams of up to five, then $10 per member a month. A second office pairs a second tablet and pays nothing more.

A front desk in an afternoon

Four steps. About 20 minutes for an admin and a tablet.

  1. 1

    Turn on Visits

    An administrator turns the Visits app on for the organization. The Visits page, the visitors list, and the settings appear in the app.

  2. 2

    Pair the kiosk

    Open the guestbook on an iPad or a tablet, enter the one-time code from the settings, and pick a theme. Put the office Wi-Fi on the screen if guests should see it.

  3. 3

    Add the documents

    Create the NDA or the visitor policy as a template in the Documents app. The kiosk presents it at check-in and keeps the signed copy on the visit.

  4. 4

    Schedule the first visit

    A host adds the guest, the purpose, and the notes. On the day, the guest checks in at the kiosk, and the Visits page shows the arrival.

OrgOrg Visits vs. a sign-in sheet

The difference is what the front desk knows after the guest walks in.

The front desk, defined

The language of a visit.

Kiosk
The tablet at the front desk, running the OrgOrg guestbook. It is paired to one organization with a one-time code and shows one of five themes.
Visit
A guest, a host, a purpose, and a time. A host schedules it; the guest checks in at the kiosk; the Visits page shows it as scheduled or checked in.
Walk-in
A check-in with no scheduled visit. The guest names the person they came to see, and the visit is created at the kiosk.
Host
The member of the team a guest came to see. A scheduled visit names the host; a walk-in picks one at the kiosk.
Signed document
A template from the Documents app, an NDA or a visitor policy, that the guest signs at the kiosk with a typed name. The signed copy stays on the visit.
Face check-in
A returning guest's check-in by the camera, after their consent on the first visit. The consent and its version are kept with the face encoding.
Delivery
A package logged at the kiosk with its carrier and its recipient. The recipient is notified in the inbox, by email, and in Slack.
Visit activity
The record a check-in writes on a CRM contact whose email matches the guest, so the office visit shows on the contact's timeline.

Frequently asked

What is a visitor check-in kiosk?

A visitor check-in kiosk is a tablet at the front desk where a guest signs in: who they are, who they came to see, and the documents they agree to. OrgOrg Visits runs the kiosk on any iPad or tablet with a browser, paired to your organization with a one-time code, and keeps the visits beside the directory, the CRM, and the rest of the suite.

Which device does the kiosk need?

Any iPad or tablet with a browser. There is no app to install: open the guestbook page, enter the code from the Visits settings, and the device is paired. Several devices can serve one office, and each has its own theme.

How does the kiosk recognize a returning guest?

On a guest's first visit the kiosk asks for consent, takes a photo, and keeps a face encoding with the record of that consent. On the next visit the camera recognizes the face and the check-in is one tap. A guest who declines checks in by name every time.

Can a guest sign an NDA at the kiosk?

Yes. A document template from the Documents app, an NDA or a visitor policy, is presented at check-in. The guest reads it on the screen and signs with a typed name. The signed copy stays on the visit, with the version of the document that was signed.

Does the host hear that the guest arrived?

The Visits page shows each visit as scheduled or checked in, with the host on it, as it happens. A delivery logged at the kiosk notifies its recipient in the inbox, by email, and in Slack.

What about walk-ins?

A guest with no scheduled visit taps Walk-in, types a name and a company, and picks the person they came to see from the team. The visit appears on the Visits page like a scheduled one.

How are deliveries handled?

The courier taps Delivery on the kiosk, picks the carrier (or names another), and picks the recipient from the team. The recipient gets the notice at once. The delivery is kept with the day's visits.

Does Visits print badges or scan IDs?

No. OrgOrg Visits keeps a photo and a signed document on the visit, and recognizes a returning guest by face with their consent. An office whose security policy requires a printed badge or a scanned ID needs a dedicated visitor management product.

Where does the visit show up in the CRM?

When the guest's email names a contact in OrgOrg's CRM, the check-in writes a Visit activity on that contact, so the contact's timeline and the pipeline activity feed show the office visit as its own kind. A guest with no email, or one the CRM does not know, writes nothing.

How much does Visits cost?

Visits is included in the OrgOrg bundle at one flat price for the whole suite: free for teams of up to five people, then $10 per member a month. There is no price per location, per kiosk, or per visit.
