Nametags?? That’s right. Badger is proprietary software in the form of a web app designed to secure brick and mortar businesses. It’s fun and intuitive, and to be clear, it was NOT my idea. I worked on Badger as part of a team at Foxfeather Software; as the lead programmer, I created the user interface and the print server.
When a business uses Badger, volunteers, consultants, employees, or any guest in the building can sign in instantly upon arrival via their personal mobile device or the business’ kiosk. Through the power of our secure print server, the guest can then pick up their printed nametag within seconds, featuring their name, role, date verified, and even a personalized avatar.
This is a simple but effective solution for businesses that wish to comply with the highest security standards. Administrators can access the backend of the web application and instantly see who signed in/out and when.

In addition to being attractive and clearly legible, our date-stamped badges are more secure than handwritten nametags and cannot be counterfeited.
Convenient
Visitors are registered in a searchable database organized by date. Admins can sign out visitors when they leave, and share a list of building occupants with emergency personnel.
Automatically registers visitors into a searchable database organized by date. This can be integrated with your own database to enforce unique sign-ins.
Customizable
Ability to personalize badges with avatars adds a fun factor and promotes team identities.
Isn’t the UI nice? My brother Kirby designed it. We make a good team.
