Automate remote buzzer tasks
Create reusable automation recipes for cleaners, contractors, and delivery partners so staff trigger the smart buzzer from their phones in seconds.
New version of Protobuzz is out!
Smart buzzer platform for property managers
Deliver concierge-level access without extra headcount. Offer a virtual buzzer, remote callbox app, and mobile-first apartment intercom in one place.
Smart building buzzer system features
Protobuzz replaces tedious hardware programming with a digital buzzer system designed for mixed-use and residential properties. Manage smart buzzer directories, temporary visitor codes, and virtual lobby hosts without touching the panel.
Give residents buzzer control from phone or tablet, let concierge teams trigger remote buzzer access on behalf of guests, and centralize intercom history across every entrance. Whether you need a callbox app for one tower or an apartment intercom app for an entire portfolio, the cloud dashboard keeps everything in sync.
Why property teams choose our smart buzzer
Coordinate teams in real time
Forward unanswered calls to concierge desks, security, or on-call staff and keep everyone synced with mobile callbox notifications.
Manage residents and guests
Assign permissions by unit or group, revoke digital buzzer access instantly, and maintain an audit trail for compliance checks.
Roll out Protobuzz in three steps
Step 1
Invite residents and staff with email templates that explain the apartment buzzer app and how to use the mobile callbox.
Step 2
Publish automation templates for deliveries, maintenance visits, and amenity bookings that rely on virtual buzzer controls.
Step 3
Monitor real-time notifications and export history reports for incident follow-up or board reviews, all from the smart intercom dashboard.

As an Airbnb host this app is a lifesaver. Guests let themselves in and I don't have to hand out keys.
