Beacon

A mobile app for instantly finding which friend is free to talk right now and summoning them in a single tap. Users send a beacon to a group, everyone gets a gentle ping, and the first person to answer gets connected for a 1-1 call while everyone else's signal drops silently. It does not log missed calls, so there is no pressure to answer or return calls. Available on the App Store and Android.
