The MyWatchtower kiosk is a weather-ready touchscreen at your entry lane. Visitors enter with a PIN, scan a QR code, or call a resident from the directory. Every entry gets a photo and a time-stamped record in the MyWatchtower cloud. No on-site staff are required.
Visitors enter a PIN, scan a QR code pass from the resident app, or search the directory and call a resident. PINs can be single-use, time-limited, or recurring.
The kiosk camera captures the visitor at the moment of entry. The photo goes on the time-stamped entry record.
A hooded, key-locked enclosure on a pedestal. It connects by cellular, WiFi, or Ethernet, with cellular failover and up to 4 hours of battery backup.
The kiosk works with compatible Brivo or HID gate controllers. The software is cloud-based, with no local servers to install.

ReadYes. MyWatchtower supports staffed gates with Mission Control and unstaffed gates with the kiosk. A community can change modes without changing hardware or losing historical data. Both modes use the same cloud dashboard, entry records, and resident app. See staffed and unstaffed gate software.
A kiosk can run a main gate, or a secondary entrance such as an amenity gate, a pedestrian gate, or a service entrance. Some communities staff the gate in the day and use the kiosk overnight. Our guide to staffed and unstaffed gates shows where each mode fits.
