Real-time communication and control over your property.
OneDoor captures the critical seconds that matter, giving you the instant ability to communicate and act—never just be a bystander.
Originally a hyper-focused, SIP-first PWA for a single door, OneDoor has evolved into a multi-door communication and control surface, benefiting even non-SIP devices.
OneDoor's technology makes a $40 Tapo doorbell load like a custom-tuned Axis camera and talk like an SIP intercom.
While designed primarily as a mobile notification target, it also functions well as:
- A desktop widget for quick visual confirmation and controlled access.
- An automation dashboard with real-time visual confirmation and human reaction.
Everyone
- OneDoor is the fastest way to get to your door. Nothing else is close.
- Get your important, real-time actions right at your fingertips.
iPhone users
- OneDoor's technology shatters WebKit's high-latency grip on WebRTC communications.
- The same methods help Chromium too.
- OneDoor is 100% self-auditable unlike App Store binaries.
SIP and pro camera users:
- No need to set up a PBX, just configure your devices.
- Integrate to actions and your non-SIP devices on one surface without losing SIP advantages.
- Turn 2-way RTSP/ONVIF cameras into SIP-like communication devices.
- Enjoy private protocol talkback for Dahua cameras.
Retail camera users:
- Preload and GOP cache features significantly reduce load times.
- Access to your doorbell is faster than any other app.
- Give doorbells and 2-way cameras features like multi-caller conferencing that don't exist elsewhere.
- Turn walkie-talkie like audio into telephone speed.

- 7. Security Model — Tokens, isolation, server-side secrets
- 8. Administration — Users, notifications, runtime config
- 9. Roadmap — Version history and future plans
- 10. Contributions — How to contribute
OneDoor's interface is intentionally minimal: a single stream. Only one client stream is ever active at a time, keeping CPU/GPU usage extremely low. Speed comes from server‑side preload + GOP caching and rewriting timestamps.

- Multi‑door support — Add as many doors/cameras as you want and swipe between them instantly.
- Multiple audio modes —
sipfor the best pure UDP experiencegenerictransform generic doorbells and 2-way cameras into SIP endpointsnonefor video‑channel audio without 2‑way talk
- Per‑door action sets — Configurable DTMF payloads, private backend webhooks, frontend links, and state‑aware toggle actions for locks, lights, and automations.
- Deep‑linked notifications — Alerts take you directly to the door that was pressed.
- Unified multi‑door config — Powerful, simple, and self‑explanatory. Legacy SIP‑only configs remain valid.
- Ultra‑low latency — Full‑duplex SIP audio + go2rtc WebRTC video tuned for sub‑second response.
- Perfect notification target — Tap → live video + audio in under a second.
- Next‑step actions — Instantly jump to your NVR, another door, or any external system.
- Secure by design — Split‑token signaling, isolated webhooks, no secrets in the browser, no cloud, no telemetry.
- Zero‑knowledge setup — No PBX, SIP, RTP, SRTP, or dialplan expertise required.
- Automatic key + credential generation — Strong defaults.
- PWA + desktop widget — Fast, minimal UI optimized for door response. Also keyboard support.
- Ecosystem‑friendly — Works cleanly alongside Home Assistant, Frigate NVR, and existing SIP hardware.
- Appliance-like design — Designed to run unattended, accessible to clients behind CGNAT, VPNs, and complex networks.
- Fast Notifications — Pure WebPush straight to Apple/Google. No Firebase. No app. Custom hooks accepted.
