1AHEADTECHNOLOGIES

Entry managed, not just recorded.

GLO is the next generation of the video doorbell, except it is not a doorbell: it is an entry management device. It decides who gets in and what they are authorized to deliver, leave or retrieve, takes custody of deliveries, and directs the drones and robots that arrive. And the key that opens it is an image: encrypted, AI-validated, and never the same twice.

Entry management

Meet GLO. The next generation of the device our founder invented.

Twenty years after Ron Carter invented the wireless video doorbell, the category he created has stalled: millions of near-identical cameras that notify you after the package is gone. GLO, the Global Logistics Optimizer, sits where a doorbell sits and behaves the way people already expect, but it manages the entire entry event instead of just recording it.

  • Decides who is allowed to enter, what they are authorized to deliver, leave or retrieve, and records the result
  • Uses encrypted images as access keys, in place of codes, cards and PINs
  • Mobile-to-mobile key exchange: grant two hours of access from anywhere, and it expires automatically
  • Receives, docks and directs delivery drones and ground robots, with no one home
  • A climate-controlled custody container for packages, food and pharmaceuticals, so nothing is left on a doorstep

Launch technology

The launch feature: images used as keys.

GLO is the launch product: a broad response to access and entry management. Its defining feature, turning images into keys, is the scalable component that will carry the architecture across many industries.

Your image is the key to your home

The launch application: an encrypted image on your phone opens your front door through GLO. No codes, no cards, no fobs, nothing to copy.

A photo taken on one phone becomes an encrypted image key on another, then opens a door

Mobile-to-mobile key exchange

Create a key from any image and send it the way you would send a photo. The recipient shows it to GLO, and it works only for them, only there, and only for as long as you allow.

E-commerce & last-mile

Proof of delivery that can't be faked, secure hand-off without a human present, and an end to packages left on doorsteps.

Robotics & drones

GLO receives, docks and directs autonomous machines, and each one proves who it is before it is handed anything.

Intelligent custody & thermal mailbox

Climate-controlled, access-gated storage for packages, food and pharmaceuticals that logs every hand-off in the chain of custody.

Beyond the door

The same key scales past entry management.

The image that opens your front door is the same credential that secures accounts, transactions, facilities and ballots.
