Every screen, one page

What's playing right now, what's up next, and when the display last checked in — for one screen or a hundred.

The Wi-Fi drops at 14:32. Nobody notices.

A screen in a shop is unattended hardware on somebody else's broadband. Pico Sign is built for the Saturday it fails: the display keeps playing from its own disk, and you get told before a customer does.

No heartbeat for 15 minutes. The display is almost certainly still playing its cached sequence — worth a look at the broadband.

Alerts are on every plan and are never an add-on. You choose how quiet is too quiet, and you get a second email when the screen comes back.

Plays from its own disk
Slides, video, images and app feeds are all cached on the device. After a power cut it plays straight from that cache, before the network is even back.
You hear about it first
We watch every screen's check-in and email you when one goes quiet — before a customer is the one looking at a black rectangle.
Fix it from your desk
Restart the player, force a sync, pull a screenshot of what's actually on the wall, flash an ID card, or power the display down for the night.
It picks itself back up
A wedged player reloads itself, and relaunches outright if reloading wasn't enough. Updates install themselves — no ladder, no USB stick.
