About SmartPlaces!
SmartPlaces! is a free application helping you to get important information exactly when and where you need it.
Think of how many times you’ve arrived at a specific place and need information—or you want to leave information for others. You send texts, emails, leave sticky notes, even post signs or posters. All to get the information you need at a given place--and maybe at a given time.
SmartPlaces solves that problem—and provides much more value beyond that. On your arrival, you’re welcomed to the SmartPlace™ and provided the information—access codes, how-to instructions, tips for where to park, where to leave a package delivery, who to call—it’s almost unlimited.
Just-in-time information when and where you need it—no fumbling for old emails, texts, or papers. You bump into the boundary of the SmartPlace, and your SmartPlaces app immediately presents you with just the information you need.
WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH SMARTPLACES?
Anyone can create a SmartPlace and provide information of their choice to the public, or to your personal invitees or subscribers. Here’s a few examples:
• Homeowners provide instructions for gardeners/other service providers, house sitters, guests, etc
• Community organization provides location specific content to its membership or the public
• Small businesses provide information to customers or vendors
• Organize treasure or scavenger hunts
• Guest and vendor info for pop-up events, festivals, and other events

We’ve got many more exciting features on the way. Watch for the newest updates!
