Reach everyone at your venue by text, and know who is safe

Venue Management sends alerts to staff, stewards, guests and the public on any phone, without anyone installing an app. People join by scanning a QR poster and reply on a response page, and their replies appear on a live count and map.

Visitors join by scanning a poster

Put a QR code at the gate, the bar or the box office. Visitors scan the code, enter their number on a page with your branding and receive a welcome text, so your list grows through the day without anyone typing in numbers.

  • Your branding on the sign-up page
  • A welcome text when someone joins
  • People can opt out by replying to a text

One alert reaches every phone

Declare an alert from the dashboard or a phone, and a text goes to every list you choose with a link to a live response page. People say whether they are safe, need help or have left, and the count updates as they reply.

  • Two-way SMS from UK numbers
  • A response page with your instructions and updates
  • Scenarios you set up in advance and declare in one tap

See who is accounted for

A live map on your own site plan shows where reports and check-ins are coming from. The roll call shows who has replied, who needs help and who has not replied yet, and anyone who has not answered is sent a reminder by text.

  • Your own site plans, marked up before the day
  • Check-ins and replies are counted as they arrive

  • Issue reports from staff and the public, with photos and voice notes
  • A live situation summary on the Monitoring board
  • An evidence pack of the timeline once the incident is stood down

Frequently asked questions

Do people need the app?
No. Alerts arrive as an ordinary text and the response page opens in the phone's browser. Your staff can use the whoot. app as well, and nobody on the public list ever needs it.
Can we keep staff and the public on separate lists?
Yes. You can arrange lists however you like, for example staff, stewards, contractors, guests or a single day's crowd. Each alert goes to the lists you choose.
What happens when our list grows?
Nothing is blocked. A small overrun is settled at renewal. A larger one moves your capacity up straight away, charged pro rata, and your admins are told.
Does whoot. meet our Martyn's Law duties for us?
No product can do that. whoot. supports your obligations: it notifies and guides people, accounts for everyone and keeps a record you can show an inspector. Meeting the law depends on your own procedures.
