SmartRent has launched Virtual Intercom, a browser-based entry management system that eliminates traditional hardware requirements and reduces installation costs by up to 85%. The system uses QR codes and WebRTC streaming technology to enable secure visitor access across property entry points. Visitors scan a property-specific QR code and connect directly to residents through a mobile web directory, whilst residents receive push notifications through the SmartRent app to verify guests and unlock doors remotely. The solution integrates with property management software and requires no complex wiring or electrical installation. The system addresses the challenge of high intercom installation costs that previously made portfolio-wide deployment impractical for many property operators. SmartRent will demonstrate Virtual Intercom at the National Apartment Association's Apartmentalize conference from 17-19 June in New Orleans.

SmartRent launches hardware-free Virtual Intercom. Provided by Business Wire Jun 16, 2026, 8:15:00 AM Browser-based, smartphone friendly entry system replaces physical panels with QR codes, making visitor management affordable for multi-building communities and parking areas SmartRent, Inc. (NYSE: SMRT) ("SmartRent" or the "Company"), a leading provider of smart communities and smart operations solutions for the rental housing industry, today announced the launch of Virtual Intercom, a reenvisioned, browser-based entry management system. SmartRent's new Virtual Intercom provides property operators with a hardware-free, cost-effective visitor entry solution. Guests simply scan the secure QR code to initiate a browser-based video or audio call to residents for property access, eliminating the need for expensive hardwiring, physical entry panels or dedicated app downloads. The system is designed for rapid deployment with no need for traditional intercom hardware, complex wiring or electrical installation. The QR code design enables secure visitor access and entry management to entrances throughout a community including parking areas, garages, auxiliary common areas and for multi-building properties. Virtual Intercom eliminates the upfront costs and reduces typical hardware and installation expenditures by up to 85%. Deep integration with top property management system software enables smooth implementation and automated, real-time access control. "For years, property operators have faced a double standard: intercoms are highly requested by residents, but the per-building hardware and wiring costs can make portfolio-wide installation economically impractical," said Sangeeth Ponathil, Chief Information Officer at SmartRent. "Virtual Intercom removes the hardware bottleneck. By leveraging the smartphone already in a visitor's pocket, we are making secure access affordable for all of a property's entry points while delivering a fast, modern experience for residents and guests." Virtual Intercom removes friction by allowing visitors to connect instantly, without app downloads or registration. * For Visitors: Guests, delivery couriers or service providers scan a property-specific QR code sign at any entry point, and are then taken to a mobile web directory. * Fast Connection: Using WebRTC streaming technology, a connection to the resident is established. * For Residents: Residents receive a push notification within their existing SmartRent mobile app. From there, they can verify their guest's identity and unlock the door or perimeter gate with a single tap. SmartRent will demo Virtual Intercom at the National Apartment Association's (NAA) Apartmentalize conference June 17-19 in New Orleans at Booth #801. Attendees can experience the browser-based entry interface firsthand and speak directly with the team.
