Never miss a package. BuzzBot buzzes in deliveries automatically.
BuzzBot connects your Gmail to your apartment intercom. When a carrier buzzes your building, BuzzBot checks for a matching shipping confirmation and buzzes them in — without you lifting a finger.
Why apartment deliveries fail
Carriers have under 2 minutes per stop. At a house, they leave the package at the door. At an apartment, they have to buzz your intercom, wait for you to answer, and get buzzed in. If any step fails, the package gets marked “delivery attempted” and you drive to a facility to pick it up.
Phone on silent
You're in a meeting, in the shower, or asleep. The intercom call goes unanswered.
Driver won't wait
Carriers ring once and move on. By the time you see the missed call, they're gone.
Call gets blocked
iOS silences unknown callers. Your carrier's spam filter flags the intercom number.
How BuzzBot auto-buzzes deliveries
Carrier buzzes your unit
The delivery driver presses your unit number on the building intercom. The intercom calls your BuzzBot number.
BuzzBot checks your Gmail
BuzzBot scans your inbox for a shipping confirmation from the carrier that matches today's date. UPS confirmation from this morning? Match found.
Voice verification
BuzzBot asks the caller for a name on the package — in English, Spanish, and Cantonese. If the name matches (first or last is enough for expected deliveries), the door opens.
Door opens, you get notified
BuzzBot sends DTMF "9" to unlock the door and pushes a notification to your iPhone: "UPS delivery — buzzed in." The package makes it to your door.
Supported carriers
Plus any carrier that sends shipping confirmation emails. Don't see yours? Let us know and we'll add it.
What about unexpected visitors?
Not every buzz is a delivery. BuzzBot handles all scenarios:
Gmail match found — asks for a name on the package. First or last name is enough. Buzzed in automatically.
No delivery expected — asks for full name. If it matches your household member list, buzzed in automatically.
No match — call forwards to your phone immediately. Every household member gets a push notification with the caller's info.
Delivery buzzer FAQ
How does BuzzBot know a delivery is coming?
BuzzBot scans your Gmail for shipping confirmation emails from known carriers — UPS, FedEx, Amazon, USPS, DHL, DoorDash, Instacart, and others. It reads only the sender and subject line to confirm a delivery is expected. It never reads email body content.
What happens if the delivery isn't in my Gmail?
BuzzBot falls through to voice verification. It asks the caller to identify themselves by name. If the name matches someone in your household, they're buzzed in. If not, the call forwards to your phone immediately and every household member gets a push notification.
Does it buzz in everyone automatically?
No. BuzzBot only auto-buzzes callers who match an expected delivery in Gmail or whose name matches your household member list. Unknown callers trigger push notifications and call forwarding — you stay in control.
What carriers are supported?
UPS, FedEx, Amazon Logistics, USPS, DHL, DoorDash, Instacart, Shipt, and other carriers that send shipping confirmation emails. If a carrier isn't recognized, email support@buzzbotdoorapp.com and we'll add it.
Does this work with food delivery apps?
Yes. DoorDash, Instacart, Uber Eats, and Shipt drivers trigger the same Gmail-based detection flow as package carriers. If you have a delivery confirmation email, BuzzBot recognizes it.
