A software-only doorbell
The doorbell, reinvented — no hardware, just a QR code.
A visitor scans the code at your door and video-calls your phone — wherever in the world you happen to be.
Android only today. iOS is in development.
- Frame 1
The QR at your door
A visitor scans the code with any default phone camera.
- Frame 2
Your phone rings
The call reaches you wherever you are, over the internet.
- Frame 3
The visit is logged
Every scan, call and timestamp is recorded and searchable.
The problem
The doorbell is the last un‑digitised object in the Indian home.
Hardware you must buy and wire
A smart doorbell costs ₹2,500–₹15,000, then needs drilling, wiring, Wi-Fi pairing and charging. An intercom needs the whole building to agree.
Renters simply cannot install one
No drilling, no altering wiring, no landlord permission. India's urban rental density makes this the majority case, not the edge case.
Your phone number is the workaround
Every delivery, every service visit, every stranger at the gate ends with a personal number handed over. That is a safety problem dressed up as convenience.
CCTV records. It does not answer.
Passive cameras tell you what happened after it happened. Nobody can let the plumber in, redirect a courier, or turn away a stranger from a recording.
“Kkaun hai?”
The question every Indian door has always asked. Now it has an answer — and the answer is a video call, not a peephole and not your number written on a courier’s slip.
How it works
Print a QR code. That is the entire installation.
- 01
Register and generate
The owner registers a home, office or vehicle and gets a unique QR endpoint.
- 02
Stick it at the door
A weatherproof sticker or a metal plate. No drilling, no wiring, no landlord.
- 03
The visitor scans
Any default phone camera opens the call page in a browser. There is no app to download.
- 04
You answer, anywhere
Live two-way video. Let them in, leave instructions, or ignore — from any city.
Setup takes under two minutes from sign-up to a printable QR.
Why now
India already learned the behaviour. We just point it at the door.

The single biggest barrier to a QR doorbell — visitor unfamiliarity — has already fallen, paid for by a decade of UPI adoption we did not have to fund.

iOS support
Android is live. iOS is in development.
Built, working, and in the hands of beta users.
A working MVP runs QR generation, WebRTC video calling, number masking and visitor logs end to end on Android today. Early users across homes and small offices are stress-testing scan reliability, call quality and routing rules. Public release is the next milestone — we are not claiming users, revenue or retention we do not yet have.
“I stuck the QR on my door on a Sunday. By Monday the courier was video-calling me at work.”
Where the QR goes
One QR code. Anywhere someone needs to reach you.
The endpoint does not care what it is stuck to. A door, a windscreen, a truck tailgate, a shop shutter, a printed visiting card — each becomes a private, live channel to whoever owns it.
Every new surface is the same software.
Privacy and trust
What we will not do with your door.
- Numbers stay masked on both sides
- The visitor never sees your number. You never see theirs. Neither number is displayed by the service during a call.
- No advertising over a live call
- Ads exist on the free tier, before a call connects and after it ends. Never during. If an ad is loading when a call arrives, the load is cancelled.
- Call content is never used for advertising
- Camera streams, microphone streams, call audio, call video and call metadata are never processed, shared or used for ad targeting, measurement or optimisation — on any plan, paid or free.
- Consent comes before revenue
- No ad request is made before a consent decision is captured. The visitor call page defaults to non-personalised advertising, because we cannot establish the age of a person scanning a code.
- A paid plan removes every placement
- All three ad placements disappear on a paid plan. That is the whole reason to upgrade.
- DPDP-ready, with routes that work
- Published privacy and cookie policies, working consent-withdrawal and deletion routes, and retention enforced at the database layer.
And what it is not.
KKAUNHAI is a communication tool. It is not an emergency service and does not connect to 112, 100, 101, 102 or 108. It is not a security system, an alarm, or access control — it does not lock, unlock or physically secure anything. It is not a guarantee of identity: it does not verify who a visitor is. Calls travel over your data connection, not a telephone network, so they will not work when either side is offline. Masking stops the service from disclosing a number; it cannot stop someone from reading their own number aloud.

Pricing is a starting point, not a position. Tiers, price points and exactly what sits behind each one will be shaped by what beta and early launch data tell us — including bundling, annual plans and society-level licensing. Treat the above as the direction of travel, not a fixed catalogue.
For societies, clinics and fleets
Hundreds of doors, no wiring cost.
Societies and gated communities, co-living operators, clinics, retail chains and fleets deploy the same software across every entrance, vehicle or desk — with routing rules, hours and visitor logs per endpoint.
Try it before you decide
Scan this. It rings the founder's phone.
This is a live endpoint, not a picture of one. Scan it with an Android phone and you will reach Dr Shahaji Shovakar directly — a real, secure, two-way visitor call, without either of you sharing a phone number.
