ConoKey

Key management for teams that don’t believe in spreadsheets.

LIVE Since 2024 Laravel

What ConoKey?

ConoKey is a multi-tenant system for managing physical keys and key cabinets. Every key carries an RFID tag, every cabinet is a connected device, and every movement — fetch, return, transfer — lands in an append-only audit log.

The problem is familiar: a spreadsheet that’s never accurate, a whiteboard losing post-its, a key gone for two weeks and nobody knows who has it. With ConoKey a user authenticates with the mobile app, opens the cabinet, takes or returns. The system knows what happened — not because someone wrote it down, but because the cabinet saw it.

For facility teams, property managers and MSPs: one platform, multiple companies, each with their own cabinets, keys, users, settings and API access.

What it does

RFID keys in cabinets

Every key has a tag, every cabinet tracks what’s in and what’s out. Status per key: in cabinet, checked out, reserved or lost.

Mobile auth via QR

Users scan a QR code on the cabinet with the ConoKey app. No PIN to remember, no badge to lose. Admins sign in via Microsoft 365 / Azure AD SSO.

Append-only audit trail

Fetch, return, transfer, lost, assigned — every movement stays on record and is reconstructable. For compliance and for "who had that key again?".

Multi-tenant per company

One platform for multiple client organisations. Separate users, cabinets, settings and API keys — nothing leaks across tenants.

Threshold notifications

Per-company configurable thresholds. If a key is out longer than allowed, an email goes out automatically to admin and user.

API for customer integrations

Customers can reserve keys, fetch them or read statuses via the REST API. Per-company scoped API keys; no shared tokens.

Who it’s for

Facility teams

moving past spreadsheets for managing keys across rooms, buildings or departments.

MSPs and property managers

offering a separate, isolated key-management environment per client organisation.

Compliance-aware organisations

labs, healthcare, education — wherever physical access has to be demonstrable and reconstructable after the fact.

FAQ

Why not just use a spreadsheet?

Because spreadsheets are never accurate. Someone forgets to update, two people edit at once, a row shifts when a filter is applied. In ConoKey the transaction is created at the cabinet itself — nobody has to fill anything in.

Does it work for multiple client organisations at once?

Yes. ConoKey is multi-tenant: each company has its own users, cabinets, keys, settings and API keys. Built for MSPs and property managers serving multiple organisations.

How does a user authenticate at the cabinet?

The cabinet generates a one-time QR code. The user scans it with the ConoKey app, and the cabinet links the session to the right person. No PIN, no badge. Admin access uses Microsoft 365 / Azure AD SSO.
