Baguette: the app that opens doors (literally)
We built an app that puts your building access code in your Wallet. Yes, it's that simple. No, we don't know why nobody did it before.
It's 11:47 PM. You're standing in front of your building. It's raining. You're scrolling through your texts looking for the code. You find a message from your mom dated March: "The new code is A4Bโฆ or B4Aโฆ can't remember ๐ ".
We've all been there. And we decided enough is enough.
Why "Baguette"?
Because it's French, it's crispy, and it opens doors โ like a magic wand, but better. ๐ช๐ฅ
And let's be honest: we wanted a name you'd never forget. Mission accomplished.
The 10-second pitch
Baguette puts your building access code directly in Apple Wallet / Google Wallet.
That's it. No account needed for your guests, no app to open, no code to remember. The pass shows up on its own when you approach your building.
How is that possible?
A bit of magic ๐ง (and a lot of coffee โ):
- You add your building โ 30 seconds, tops
- The code slips into your Wallet โ Like a boarding pass, but for getting home
- You share in one tap โ Partner, parents, nanny, roommate, the cat (ok, not the cat)
- The code changes? No stress โ All passes update automatically
The feature nobody knew they needed
Thanks to geolocation, when you get within 50 meters of your building, your lock screen shows the code. Without. Doing. Anything.
No more:
- ๐ซ Digging through your texts
- ๐ซ Calling your neighbor at 11 PM
- ๐ซ Trying random variations on the keypad hoping one works
- ๐ซ Waiting for another resident to come out (the ninja technique)
Who is it for?
- Normal people who are tired of forgetting the code
- Families where everyone asks everyone else for the code
- Airbnb hosts who want hassle-free check-in
- People who move a lot (good luck to you ๐ฆ)
- Your mother-in-law who shows up unannounced and NEVER finds the code
Is it free?
Receiving a pass is 100% free for your guests โ they don't need to install or pay anything. For the owner, the app offers plans starting at โฌ3/month with a 2-day free trial. Because once you've tasted life without forgotten codes, there's no going back. ๐
What's next
We've got plenty baking ๐ฅ (yes, we own the pun):
- Temporary codes for delivery drivers
- Calendar integration (auto-code for your cleaning person on Tuesdays)
- "Whole building" mode for property managers
Stay tuned, it's going to be crispy.
