Everyday moments.

No searching for phone numbers. No yelling through a speaker. Just scan to connect.

Kids & School

Someone needs to reach you about your child.

On the bus, at pickup, at practice, or on a field trip. One scan connects them to you instantly.

Home & Deliveries

A delivery needs a signature.

The driver scans the Intercom at your door and you're face to face from wherever you are. Their camera is the phone in their hand, so they can show you the package, the label, the gate: things no wall-mounted camera will ever see.

Business & After Hours

A visitor arrives and no one's at the desk.

They scan and your AI receptionist answers: it greets them, handles their questions, takes a message, or rings you and connects them live. It rings like a real call, even with your screen locked.

Peace of Mind

The people who need you, can’t always call for help.

A child too young to know your number. A parent who can’t reach their phone. When someone finds them, one scan of their PhoneTag connects a call, text, or video straight to you, and shows you where they are. You are the one they count on, and PhoneTag makes sure they can always reach you, the moment it matters.

The PhoneTag difference

Not just a message. A live video call.

Other tags leave a note or a number and hope for a callback. PhoneTag connects a real, face-to-face video call the instant your tag is scanned, so you can see what's happening and talk in real time, and live text chat is always there too.

PhoneTag + AirTag

AirTag tracks your things. PhoneTag connects you.

They solve two different halves of the same worry. One helps you track what you have lost. The other helps whoever finds it, or finds your child, reach you in seconds. They are not rivals. They are a team.

AirTag®

Tracks a thing

  • Pinpoints your item on a map whenever you want
  • Precision finding when you are close by
  • Works quietly in the background, no scan needed
  • Rides Apple’s Find My network worldwide
  • Ideal for keys, bags, and luggage you own
  • You do the finding
PhoneTag

Calls you directly

  • One scan reaches you in a live video call
  • No app for the person who scans, works on any smart phone
  • Your phone number is never shared
  • Made for people: kids, parents, anyone you love
  • Shows you where they scanned on a map
  • An AI assistant answers when you cannot
Best together. Put both on the backpack. If it goes missing, AirTag helps you find it. If a person needs to reach you, PhoneTag puts them on a call with you. Both directions covered, for the ultimate peace of mind.

How it works

They scan the QR code. Your phone rings.

They need to reach you

1

Your child takes a tumble, gets turned around on a field trip, or a helper just wants to reach a parent.

Always-on backup

An AI assistant to back you up.

Life happens: you're driving, in a meeting, or fast asleep. When you can't pick up, PhoneTag's built-in AI assistant answers for you: it greets whoever scanned your tag, helps with what they need, and either takes a message or rings you to connect the call live. On an Intercom it becomes your receptionist, screening visitors at the door.

  • Speaks in your words, guided by simple instructions you set.
  • Connects the call to you live, or takes a message if you're away.
  • Included with every account, so no scan ever goes unanswered.

For your door

The intercom that answers for you.

The PhoneTag Intercom is a mounted stainless tag for homes and businesses. Visitors scan to reach you anywhere by live video, voice, or text, and when you can't answer, your AI receptionist greets them, takes a message, or finds you.

  • No wiring, no batteries, no camera hardware. Stick it up and it works.
  • Answer from anywhere. The door rings your phone, not a chime in the hallway.
  • Same $14.00 tag, same membership. Mix Intercoms and Family tags on one account.

What can I put a PhoneTag on?

Anything you don't want to lose touch with: a kid's backpack or jacket, a pet's collar, luggage, sports gear, a golf bag, or a loved one's bag. It's a lightweight, water-resistant connection tag, and you can mix and match as many as you like on one account.

How does pricing and renewal work?

The Family Starter Kit is $34.00 and includes your first year of PhoneTag Family plus your first tag, with audio, video, and an AI assistant that can answer when you don't. Each additional tag is a one-time $14.00 with no additional membership fee, and every 4-pack saves $4.00. One membership covers up to 12 tags. Your membership renews at $34.00 a year, billed securely through Stripe. Cancel anytime.

Is it safe to put a tag on my child?

Yes, that's exactly what it's designed for. The tag shows no name, number, or address. If someone scans it, they're connected to you instantly, in a live video call with private messaging and photo sharing; they never see your contact details; you decide what, if anything, to share. You can also see when and where the tag was scanned, and the whole family can be set to ring. Read exactly how we protect your family on our Safety page.

What if someone misuses the tag or keeps scanning it?

Every scan is logged with its time, location, and device, and shown in your PhoneTag app, including scans that never rang your phone or were answered by your AI assistant. Repeat scans are throttled automatically, one tap blocks a scanner for good (they just see "no one is available"), and one tap can report them to our safety team. You can also pause any tag instantly. Full details are on the Safety page.

Does someone need an app to reach me?

No. They just point their phone's built-in camera at the tag and tap the link, the call opens in their browser. The app is only for you.

How does the AI assistant work?

It's included with every account. A voice assistant that's trained on your own instructions can greet whoever scans the tag and answer questions based on your instructions, take a message, or ring you and connect the call live. Every membership includes 12 AI minutes a month; add 60 more for $8.00 a month, stackable, cancel anytime.

What is the PhoneTag Intercom?

A mounted stainless tag for your door or entry, priced like every other tag at $14.00. Visitors scan it to reach you by live video, voice, or text wherever you are, and the AI receptionist can answer when you can't. No wiring, no batteries, no camera hardware.

Does it really keep my phone number private?

Yes. Calls run over an encrypted peer-to-peer connection. Whoever scans the tag never sees your phone number, email, or address, only the call itself.
