The hardware-free smart doorbell.
Everyone walks up to your door carrying a camera and microphone.
It's called a smartphone, and you're already holding one. Dorbel is the software that connects their phone to yours. Print a QR code, stick it on your door, you're live. Visitors scan, you get notified instantly via text, voice, or video. Works for homes, apartments, and businesses. Set up in under 5 minutes.
No drilling holes, no charging batteries, no monthly hardware subscriptions. Just a QR code that works.
Register your address, print your QR code, and stick it on your door. You're live in minutes, not hours.
Your visitor's phone is already a camera, microphone, and speaker. Dorbel connects it to your door. No app download, no signup, no friction. For anyone.
Communication is peer-to-peer. No phone numbers exchanged. GPS verification prevents remote abuse.
No hardware means no landlord approval needed. Take it with you when you move: just print a new code.
Everyone who needs to be notified gets alerted. First to respond takes the call. Others see it's handled.

Three steps. No instruction manual required.
They point their phone at your QR code. GPS confirms they're actually at your door.
Instant SMS or email to everyone who needs to be notified, with a one-tap response link.
Start with text. Upgrade to voice or video if you want. All from your browser.
Traditional doorbells put a camera, microphone, and speaker on the wall because they had to: those devices didn't exist anywhere else. The whole point was to give visitors a way to be heard, and residents a way to see and respond.
Today, everyone approaching your door is already carrying all of that. A high-quality camera. A microphone. A speaker. An internet connection. The hardware problem is already solved, by the visitor.
Dorbel is the software that connects their phone to yours. No mounting brackets. No drilling. No wiring. No batteries to die at the wrong moment. Just a QR code on your door and the devices everyone already has.
Couriers return parcels to the depot because "no one answered the door." With Dorbel, that excuse disappears. Every home, apartment, and business has a working doorbell from day one: a driver with a phone camera can reach the recipient, wherever they are.
Not home? The courier can snap a photo of the parcel at your door and send it to you through the chat. Proof of delivery without a hardware camera.
True story: A kitchen fire next door. The owner was out. Her dog was rescued and thje fire was put out. By the time a handful of neighbours had gathered out the front to see what all the commotion was about, the gap was obvious: no one had a way to contact her after saving the dog and putting out the fire.
A QR code on her front door or letter box would have closed that gap in seconds. The first person there scans it, her phone rings. So does anyone else on the notification list, wherever they are.
It's not only emergencies. The same plaque is what reaches the homeowner when a courier turns up, a contractor's at the gate, or the kids are locked out. The fire just makes the gap impossible to miss.
Whether you're a homeowner, renter, or property manager, Dorbel fits your setup.
One QR code, unlimited residents. Know who's at the door from anywhere in the house.
One QR code for the building. Visitors select the unit, residents get notified directly.
Replace your buzzer with a modern solution. Notify the right staff when clients arrive.
