For business

One button. One light. One overview.

Wherever people wait for attention, the same problem appears: someone needs something, and nobody knows. BusyDot® replaces calling, waving and searching with one button and one light – and the team sees who is waiting and for how long.

Five places

One principle, five places.

Office, practice, care, restaurant, school: everywhere, a light shows what someone would otherwise have to ask, call or look for.

AI-generated illustrative scenes
Go to the office scenario: AI-generated illustrative scene: Office corridor in the evening: behind a glass wall four people sit in a meeting, a Dot on the frame of the glass wall shows a red ring and the word BELEGT. Further down the corridor a Dot next to an office door shows a green ring and the word FREI.
Go to the practice scenario: AI-generated illustrative scene: Waiting room of a medical practice: a waiting man holds a Dot in both hands that shows a green ring and the word DRAN. In the background more people are waiting, and a receptionist sits at the desk.
Go to the care scenario: AI-generated illustrative scene: Room in a care home in the evening: on the bedside table, next to a glass of water and glasses, a Dot in a wooden holder shows an amber ring and the word WUNSCH. In the background the open door to the corridor.
Go to the restaurant scenario: AI-generated illustrative scene: Restaurant in the evening: a woman taps a Dot in a wooden holder on her table; it shows an amber ring and the word SERVICE. In the background guests and a waiter.
Go to the school scenario: AI-generated illustrative scene: Classroom: a child writes in an exercise book, next to it a Dot in a wooden holder shows an amber ring and the word MELDUNG. In the background other children at their desks.

Office · meeting room

Busy or free?

Red at the meeting room: a meeting is running. Further down, a green Dot shows that this office is available.

Go to the office scenario

What all scenarios have in common.

No app for the guest

Whoever presses the Dot needs no phone, no account and no instructions. One button is enough.

One overview for the team

An iPad or Mac shows all open calls, sorted by waiting time. Whoever takes over taps once.

Little technical effort

No server of its own, no wiring. The devices talk to each other on your organisation’s Wi-Fi. We agree requirements and approvals with you before a pilot.

Scenario 01

Office, public authority, law firm

Meeting rooms and private offices share the same problem: whoever stands outside does not know what is happening inside. So they knock, wait or come back later.

  • Meeting rooms: the Dot sits outside on the door frame or next to the door. Red means occupied, amber: starting or ending soon, green: free. A short press books the room, a long press releases it – or a tap in the overview.
  • Private offices: here the same Dot shows the person instead of the room. A short press steps from green to amber to red, a long press means away. Reception can help out in the overview.
  • For the whole building: one overview shows all rooms and offices by floor. Nobody has to walk the corridor looking for a free room.

Especially suitable where confidentiality and visitors meet: public authorities with office hours, law firms with client meetings, consulting rooms.

Scenario 02

Medical practice

In the waiting room, names are called out. Anyone who is hard of hearing, does not speak the language well or has just stepped into the corridor misses the call – and everyone else learns who is next.

  • At registration the waiting person is handed a Dot. No app, no account.
  • The practice calls on the iPad – only that one Dot flashes green. Amber means: nearly your turn. A short press confirms the call.
  • No name is said in the room. Only the team sees names; they are deleted when the Dot is returned, and automatically in the evening (10 pm by default).
  • Optional haptic signal. A vibration module makes the call noticeable as well – for anyone not looking at the light. In development.

Scenario 03

Care homes and hospitals

Not every request is an emergency. Help to the toilet, a glass of water, a question – hardly anyone likes to press the emergency call button for that. So they wait until someone happens to pass by.

  • A visual channel for requests that are not urgent: a short press means “whenever convenient”, a long press “soon, please”.
  • Quiet in the room: the request appears on the team’s overview without triggering another acoustic signal in the room. The team can switch off the overview’s alert tone.
  • No duplicate trips: whoever takes over taps once. The request is marked as taken for everyone, and the Dot in the room turns green: someone is coming.

BusyDot complements existing call systems. It does not replace an emergency call system and is not intended for medical emergencies.

BusyDot Business on the iPad (German interface), overview of a care home: on the left open requests with room number, rating “soon, please” or “whenever convenient”, waiting time and buttons to take over and complete; on the right all rooms as tiles. At the top the note “not a replacement for the emergency call system”.

Scenario 04

Restaurants and hotels

The guest looks for eye contact, the staff are in the kitchen. Two minutes later the guest waves, three minutes later they stand up. The message “table 5 would like something” simply never reached the team.

  • One Dot per table. Press once to call for service, twice for the bill. Amber shows the guest that the call has arrived; green: someone is coming.
  • An iPad at the counter shows the floor plan: which table is calling, since when and who is taking over.
  • Waiting time becomes measurable: the overview counts response times – without names.

Scenario 05

School

In class, it is often the same children who raise their hands. Keeping count of who has already had a turn is hardly possible on the side – quieter children can easily be overlooked.

  • One Dot per seat. A short press means “I want to say something”, a long press “I have a question” – no need to keep an arm in the air.
  • Order instead of the fastest hand: the teacher sees who asked first.
  • Raised and called on are counted separately. The overview shows who has not had a turn today – with first names or initials, without a stored history.

In practice

Mounted, not wired.

The usual route is tender, wiring, interface, training. BusyDot® takes the short route: start in one corridor, then decide whether it becomes the whole building.

No cable at the spot

Attach the metal ring, place the Dot on it magnetically. No wiring, no power supply at the spot; it charges via USB-C or wirelessly via Qi.

No system integration

No BusyDot server, no cloud service, no interface project. The overview runs on an iPad or Mac.

Software that grows with you

Overviews per area, more devices for the team by invitation, analysis of response times. Start small and expand when you need to.

Data-minimal

A Dot knows a number, not a name. No microphone, no camera, no account. The data stays on your devices.

Let’s talk

Which scenario is yours?

BusyDot® is in development. Which application is finished first will be decided with our first partners – organisations that accompany a pilot installation and investors who back the early phase.

Pilot project

Practice, care home, restaurant, school or office: tell us which scenario fits and how many places it involves. We will come back with a concrete proposal. info@busydot.de

Investor relations

We are looking for partners who see more than a status light for the home office: a signalling layer for places where people wait for attention. info@busydot.de
