Three products that work alone or together
Buy the one you need, or all three. If you use more than one, they share a single dashboard and keep one record of everything that happens.
Desktop Alerts
A lockdown, an evacuation or any alert you set up appears full-screen on every staff computer in the school, with sound, on top of whatever is open. Every teacher has one Get help button that tells the responders which room needs them.
From £50 a site a month.
- Windows, macOS and ChromeOS
- Get help from any classroom, with the room name included
- Deployed by your IT team through Intune, Jamf or Google Admin

Venue Management
Text the people you need to reach, from staff and stewards to guests or the whole crowd. People join a list by scanning a poster, receive alerts on any phone without installing anything, and reply on a response page, so you can see a live count of who is safe.
From £59 a month.
- Two-way SMS from UK numbers
- QR sign-up posters for the public
- A live count and map of who is safe


Venue Voice
Always-on push-to-talk voice rooms for the people running the day. Stewards hear their own zone, supervisors hear several and the control room hears everything. Every conversation is recorded.
£9 a month for each person who talks, with a minimum of five.
- iPhone, Android and the web console
- Recorded and transcribed
- Dial-in numbers for voice rooms

Solutions for your sector
How schools, festivals, events, sports grounds and hospitality venues use whoot.
Martyn’s Law is now an Act of Parliament
The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 requires premises that can hold 200 or more people to have procedures for evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communicating with the people inside. The duties begin after an implementation period.
whoot. supports those obligations. It alerts and guides people, accounts for everyone on site and keeps a record you can show an inspector.
