Visit The Receptionist for iPad (now Sign In App)

The Receptionist for iPad, now part of Sign In App, is a visitor management system for iPad that handles digital front-desk check-in. It records visitor details, tracks who is in the building, and supports badge printing and emergency evacuation lists, helping organizations manage guest arrivals and site safety from a single platform.

The system includes photo and ID capture, visitor pre-registration, QR code and contactless sign-in, NDA and legal agreement workflows, and custom buttons and workflows. Check-in data is stored in the cloud and can be searched, exported on a schedule, and retained according to configurable rules. Security and compliance tools include an active visitor dashboard, emergency and evacuation lists, citizenship confirmation, Active Directory integration via API, and SOC 2 compliance. Branding options cover custom logos, images, welcome text, multiple tenants, department listings, and a drag-and-drop badge designer. Integrations include Azure AD/Entra ID, Google Workspace, Microsoft Teams, Slack, custom webhooks, and a documented API, with additional connections available through Zapier. The Companion App supports iOS, Android, and web sign-in, geofence auto sign-in, remote working, live shared evacuation reports, and email, mobile push, Teams, Slack, SMS, and custom notification rules.

The product is aimed at organizations of varying sizes across industries including aerospace, behavioral health, coworking, education, engineering, food and beverage, financial services, legal, logistics, manufacturing, and technology. Pricing is organized into Core, Enhanced, Pro, and Executive editions, with a per-site annual subscription model covering unlimited employees, portal users, monthly sign-ins, Companion App users, and connected iPads. A 15-day free trial is available, and a Receptionist in a Box package bundles a kiosk and iPad with the software.
