The problem
Paper logbooks are a liability
Most UK workplaces still rely on a paper sign-in sheet. Here's why that's a problem.
No idea who's on-site
Can't account for visitors in an emergency. Paper logbooks are useless when the fire alarm goes off.
GDPR nightmare
Paper logbooks expose visitor data to everyone who signs in after them. That's a compliance risk you can't afford.
Wasted reception time
Manual check-in takes 3-5 minutes per visitor. Your front desk team has better things to do.
How it works
Up and running in 3 steps
No IT department needed. No installation. Just a tablet and 5 minutes.
1
Set up your location
Create your account and configure your first site. Two minutes, no IT support required.
2
Place a tablet at reception
Open Porter on any iPad, Android tablet, or browser. Add your logo and customise your welcome message.
3
Visitors check in, you get notified instantly
Guests tap, enter their details, and check in within 30 seconds. Their host gets an instant notification.
Features
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Every plan includes the core check-in flow. Higher tiers add contractor compliance, evacuation, API access, and analytics.
iPad Kiosk Check-In
Visitors check themselves in on any iPad, Android tablet or browser. No special hardware needed. A cheap tablet on a stand is all it takes.
Host Notifications
Notify hosts via email, Slack or Microsoft Teams the moment their visitor arrives. No more missed guests.
Contractor Compliance
Track contractor visits, verify insurance, manage inductions, and flag expired certifications automatically.
Fire Evacuation
One tap activates emergency mode. See who's on-site in real-time. Mark everyone safe from any device.
Analytics Dashboard
Peak visitor hours, busiest hosts, visit durations. Export to CSV for compliance audits in seconds.
GDPR Compliance
Hosted in the EU for UK and EU data residency. Configurable retention periods. Visitor consent capture. Full DPA available.
Do you run the building rather than the office?
Porter runs a managed office with many resident businesses behind one reception desk: each company sees only its own visitors, and the fire roll-call crosses all of them. Licensed per building, from £149 a month excl. VAT.
Why Porter
