Comeback idea

A phone-based access app that handles keyless entry for homes, offices and shared vehicles.

The write-up

KeyPass packs a whole security pitch into a single word, and it's ready for a second act. Smart locks and keyless cars are everywhere now, and a simple app that manages who gets in and when fits how people share spaces today. It's up for a fresh start, so here's how you'd relaunch it: a lightweight keyless access app for homes, rental units and shared cars.
