No screen. No app. Just their voice.

Press. Talk. Home.

Beacom is a small box that lets a child talk to their grandparents over WhatsApp, and to a cousin directly — without ever touching a phone.

Why we're building this

Grandparents shouldn't need a smartphone to hear their grandchild's voice.

In most families we know, the people who miss a child's voice most — Dada, Dadi, an uncle two cities away — are also the ones least comfortable opening an app, finding a chat, and pressing record.

Beacom removes every one of those steps for the child. One button to listen. Hold it to reply. The grandparent's side stays exactly as it is today — their own phone, their own WhatsApp.

A second button connects a child directly to a cousin's box in another city — no WhatsApp, no phone, just the two boxes talking to each other.

How it works

Four steps. No setup on their side.

01

Press

Tap the big Family button to hear the newest voice note from Dada or Dadi.

02

Hold to reply

Hold the same button and talk. It's sent straight to WhatsApp, no recording app needed.

03

Tap for cousin

The small Cousin button connects two Beacom boxes directly — a private line between two homes.

04

A light tells the story

No screen to read. The light pulses when someone's waiting to be heard, and glows steady while playing.

A design decision, not a limitation

No screen to unlock. No feed to scroll.

No app to install. No account to manage.

Just a voice, waiting to be pressed play.

Sold as a pair

Two boxes, pre-linked before they arrive.

Beacom ships as a pack of two — one for each child. The Cousin button is already paired between them, so the two boxes start talking the moment they're both online.

Both boxes reach both grandparents over WhatsApp, set up once from a parent's phone in about two minutes.

In development

Beacom isn't for sale yet — but it's coming.
