Unique solution to break chain of infection on the Anvil
The “Been” App, which can be used at public places by businesses, ensures that individual privacy is protected at all times. It empowers authorities to take corrective action at the right time to avoid lockdown. It enables informing the potential risk so that they can take immediate corrective action of isolating themselves.
“At a very early stage, I understood that we need an app to break the chain of infections faster,” says Eliran Shachar, the founder and CEO. The app was build using a “Privacy First” logic, which means that all possible measures were taken to protect people’s privacy. That’s include shredding visits data after 14 days, not exposing individual information, and using high-end technology to provide real-time tools.
“We are now developing a smart key-chain that can replace the need for the phone scanning action for older adults or anyone who want a more comfortable way to enter a business or public place. We hope to deliver that solution to the public soon”, he added.
“Been” is working on a subscription model where businesses that use the app can register their business premises. They will be allotted a smart QR code to place at the entrance. Clients and visitors will be required to scan that QR code. Each unique visitor is required to fill up a short form before entering- this is only needed once. The next time the user visits the place, he will need just to press a button to approve entering (less than 12 seconds).
