Pitch for Ringo

Company / App Name: Ringo

http://www.tryringo.com
Twitter – TryRingo

What does it do?

Ringo lets you forward your apartment, condo or gate intercom to more than one phone, landline or cellular. As well, you can have a secure entry system with PIN codes for you and your friends to use and skip the phone entirely.

Why do we need it?

Most buzzer / intercom systems were built when everyone had a landline, instead of a smartphone in their pocket. Ringo helps to bring your buzzer into the 21st century, and gives you building access the way you want it.

Who is it for?

Ringo is ideal for people who live in apartments, condos or gated communities, especially if they live with more than one person. Also, the secure entry system is a great option for people who want the flexibility a smarter intercom offers.

What makes it stand out from the crowd?

Some people can use Google Voice for forwarding, but it\’s not available in many areas, and also doesn\’t offer the secure entry feature, or SMS notifications. As well, Ringo isn\’t an ad company, and values your privacy.

What’s next?

We’re currently looking at Lockitron integration, so that not only can Ringo unlock your building’s door, but also the door to your unit as well! This will offer full keyless entry, and will be great for Airbnb hosts.
