For decades, Tricity society gates relied on handwritten registers. It worked when traffic was low. It fails when you have 400+ flats, multiple towers, and daily delivery volume.

Paper registers — hidden problems

  • Illegible handwriting and missing pages
  • No photo or identity verification
  • Residents cannot approve remotely
  • RWA audits require manual counting
  • Registers get damaged in monsoon at guard cabins
