For organisations

Doorstep visibility across the people you support

Soter has been tested in pilot households. We're now turning those learnings into a reliable commercial V1 for organisations supporting older adults and people with disabilities, targeted for the first half of 2027.

Who Soter is for

  • Retirement villages and independent-living operators
  • Aged-care and home-care providers
  • Disability-support organisations
  • Special disability accommodation providers
  • Community housing and supported-living services
  • Organisations supporting older adults or people with disabilities at home

Doorstep management at scale

Resident by resident

Household-level visibility

Each deployed unit can be configured around the resident and household it supports, including which visits matter and which nominated staff or family members receive alerts. Visit records provide a factual history when a team needs to understand what happened at the door.

Visibility is scoped by role and by household consent, so teams see what they need for care and operations — and nothing more. Residents keep their privacy; providers keep their oversight.

The right people, at the right time

Verified access workflows

Soter establishes who is at the door before anyone is let in. Scheduled support workers, contractors with an appointment, and regular services can be recognised and checked against the expected visit, with alerts routed to the people nominated by the household.

Unexpected callers are screened through conversation instead of being left to knock. The resident, their family, or your team decides what happens next, and every decision is recorded.

Audit-ready

Operational records

Every doorstep interaction is recorded automatically with its time, purpose, and outcome — entry records that build themselves, without asking staff to fill anything in at the door. Missed care visits, failed deliveries, and unknown callers stop being invisible.

For providers, that supports compliance reporting, incident review, and care coordination from a factual record rather than recollections — and gives managers an honest picture of what is happening at the doors they are responsible for.

When a door needs attention

Door and exit alerts

Soter can alert nominated staff or family when a door is left open or an exit may need attention, according to the household's configuration.

These alerts are intended for households where wandering or an open door is a safety risk, and remain subject to resident consent and organisational policy.
