Lobby Watch

What it does

Each directory is a small computer behind a TV. The page is a list of those screens, grouped by building. Open it and you know if a directory is up.

• See the fleet even if this page is closed
• Edit tenants from the building, not from the lobby
• Silence one screen without turning the rest off
• Green when the TV is on and showing the directory. A look when it is off or has no picture. A reach problem when the box is not answering
• If the building internet drops, the TV keeps the last directory

It is running on a live office-building fleet.

Why it exists

A lobby directory that nobody watches is a dark screen and a stale tenant list. The work is not a pretty board. The work is knowing, from a phone, whether the board is still doing its job.

Same shop as the festival software. Different field. Same standard: build the tool the operation actually uses.

What this is not

Not a digital-signage catalog. Not a one-time install that nobody checks. Not a tenant website.
