The problem is real
Paper sign-in sheets put visitor privacy, building safety and your first impression at risk.
Zero privacy
Paper logs expose every visitor's name to the next person who signs in.
Hosts left waiting
Visitors sit unattended because no one knows they have arrived.
No emergency plan
In a fire, can you name every person in your building right now?
Enterprise price tag
Envoy's Premium visitor plan is $362 per location per month, billed annually (envoy.com/pricing, checked Oct 19, 2026).
Unprofessional look
A clipboard at the front desk tells clients you're behind the times.
How it works
Three steps and no special hardware: any tablet or computer will do.
Set up your kiosk
Create your account, customize your welcome screen, and open the kiosk on any tablet or computer.
Visitors check in
Visitors enter their name, select a host, and sign any required agreements — all digitally.
Hosts get notified
Hosts receive instant email or SMS notifications when their visitor arrives. No more lobby waiting.
Everything You Need. Nothing You Don't.
Powerful features designed for small businesses, law firms, clinics, schools, and more.
Digital check-in
Replace paper sign-in sheets with a sleek digital kiosk that works on any device.
Instant notifications
Notify hosts via email or SMS the moment their visitor checks in.
Employee time tracking
Employees clock in and out with a secure PIN or Pro biometric flow. Track hours and export payroll-ready timesheet reports.
Smart dashboard
Real-time visitor logs, analytics, peak hours, and exportable reports.
Multi-location support
Manage up to 7 locations from one account. Transfer staff between branches.
Emergency ready
Emergency roster shows checked-in visitors and clocked-in employees for faster response.
Custom branding
Upload your logo, choose your colors, and make the kiosk match your brand.
NDA & agreement signing
Require visitors to sign NDAs or agreements before check-in. Fully digital.
Bilingual (EN/FR)
Full English and French support. Visitors and staff can switch languages anytime.
CSV & PDF export
Export visitor logs and timesheets in CSV or branded PDF format with one click.
Role-based access
Four permission levels — Admin, Manager, Front Desk, and Host — for secure team collaboration.
Student management
A student directory with guardian contacts and a log of linked visits for schools and daycares. Staff follow the school's own pickup process.
Employee clock-in and reports
Visitor management plus payroll-ready timesheets
GateKipas helps small teams run the front desk and the employee clock from the same kiosk. It tracks clock-ins, clock-outs, late arrivals, pay periods, and exportable reports, without pretending to be a full payroll system.
PIN and Pro biometric clock-in
Employees can clock in and out at the kiosk. Managers can correct entries, add notes, and protect against duplicate open time entries.
CSV and branded PDF reports
Starter and Pro teams can export visitor logs and grouped timesheet reports with totals for payroll review.
Time gating for Pro teams
Configure business hours, shift windows, grace periods, and timezone-aware clock-in rules for locations that need tighter control.
