A front-desk visitor sign-in kiosk that greets clients, emails their host the moment they arrive, and keeps a complete timestamped visitor log for compliance.

The first sixty seconds in your lobby shape how clients see your entire organization. A confused visitor standing around waiting, unsure if anyone knows they've arrived, sends the wrong message. But hiring a full-time receptionist just to greet occasional visitors doesn't make sense for most businesses.
Clerkcat gives you a professional front door without the overhead. When a client walks in, they're greeted by a sleek tablet that guides them through check-in. They enter their name, who they're visiting, and optionally their company. That's it—their host gets an immediate email notification that their guest has arrived.
No more "let me call back to see if they're available." No more leaving clients standing awkwardly in the lobby while someone hunts down their host. The notification goes out instantly, and your team looks organized and responsive.
For offices that need compliance documentation, Clerkcat maintains a complete visitor log automatically. Every check-in is timestamped and stored. When auditors ask who visited last quarter, or security needs to know who was in the building on a specific date, you have exact records—not educated guesses.
The setup takes minutes. Place a tablet on a stand near your entrance, connect to WiFi, and you're running. There's no special hardware, no IT project, no training manual. New employees figure out they're being notified about their guests the first time it happens.
Clerkcat also handles the visitors that aren't client meetings: delivery drivers, maintenance workers, job candidates. Everyone who enters signs in, everyone who needs to know is notified, and everyone is logged. Your office runs smoothly without you thinking about it.
Many offices start with Clerkcat because they want to look more professional. They keep it because they realize how much easier everything becomes when visitor management just works.
A check-in kiosk configured for a office — your welcome message, your fields, on any tablet.
Set up in minutes on any iPad or Android tablet.
These are the challenges we hear about from offices every day.
Without a receptionist, clients arrive to an empty lobby and aren't sure if anyone knows they're there. They stand around checking their phone, wondering if they got the time wrong.
Someone notices a visitor standing in the lobby. They walk back to find the host. The host wasn't at their desk. Five minutes later the client is still waiting. Not a great first impression.
When you need to know who was in the building last Tuesday—for security, compliance, or just curiosity—you have nothing. Nobody thought to write it down.
You have maybe 5-10 visitors a day, but someone needs to be at the front desk "just in case." That's an expensive insurance policy for occasional greetings.
Get the professional front door of a large corporation without the overhead. Impress clients from the moment they walk in.
Stop being the default greeter. Let Clerkcat handle visitor arrivals so you can focus on everything else.

Customize your check-in form with fields that matter to your office. Here are some examples:
Visitors select their host during check-in, and that person gets an email notification the moment the check-in completes. No front-desk phone calls, no walking to the lobby to check. The five-minute "let me see if they're available" shuffle disappears.
If your receptionist's main job is greeting occasional visitors, the kiosk covers it: greeting, host notification, and record-keeping happen automatically. Offices with heavier front-desk duties keep the person and use the kiosk to remove the interruptions — either way, nobody is tied to a desk "just in case."
It depends on your industry, but physical access records come up constantly: ISO 27001 and SOC 2 audits, client security questionnaires, and insurance reviews all commonly ask who had access to your premises and when. A timestamped digital log you can export to CSV answers those requests in minutes; a half-filled paper sheet doesn't.
Yes. The dashboard shows everyone who checked in but hasn't checked out, in real time. Visitors can check themselves out at the same kiosk, and auto check-out keeps the list honest when someone forgets. In an evacuation you have a headcount, not a guess.
Minutes, and no. Clerkcat runs in the browser on any tablet — most offices use an iPad on a stand. Create your account, name your fields, open the kiosk URL, and you're live. There's no software to install, no badge printer to configure, and nothing for IT to maintain.
