What is a digital welcome board for office?

A digital welcome board for an office is a screen in the reception area that greets arriving visitors and shows what they need while they wait: a live clock, the day's meetings, guest WiFi and building notices. It runs on an ordinary TV, and the wording is edited in a browser instead of being reprinted.

This board runs on

Any screen with a modern browser. There is no media player box to buy and nothing to install: you open a link on the TV, pair it once, and change what it shows from your phone.

It is authored at 16:9, so stand the TV the usual way and the board fills it.

Questions people actually ask

How much does a digital welcome board for an office cost?
Separate three line items before you budget. The board design itself is free here, so the cost is hardware plus whatever you already pay for internet. The screen is the big one, and a normal consumer TV is fine for a lobby that runs eight or ten hours on weekdays. Choose a commercial display only if the screen will run long daily hours or sit in bright glare, since those are built for extended duty and higher brightness. Then add a player if the TV has no usable browser, a wall mount, a power point behind the screen and a network drop or reliable WiFi at that wall. Price those four before you price software.
Is there a free digital welcome board for office reception?
Yes. This lobby welcome board is free to use and every part of it is remixable: the company name, the greeting line, the live clock, the meeting list, the values panel, the notices and the colours. Change the copy first, then the palette, then the photography. One operational rule when you fill in the WiFi panel: publish the guest network only, never the staff network, and give the guest network its own password. If your router supports it, rotate that password on a schedule and update the board the same day, because anything shown on a reception screen is readable by everyone who walks past it, including people who are not your visitors.
What should a digital welcome board for a reception area show?
Answer the four questions a visitor actually has while standing there: am I in the right building, has anyone noticed me, what time is it, and how do I get online. So a greeting with the company name, today's meetings or the name of the person being visited, a live clock, and the guest WiFi details. Notices and values come last, because nobody reads them until they have sat down. Size the type by distance: the sign trade allows roughly 25mm of capital letter height for every 3 metres of viewing distance, so a lobby where people read the screen from about 6 metres needs capitals near 50mm. On personal data, prefer a first name and a company rather than a full name.
Do I need an app to run a digital welcome board for the office?
Usually not. The board is a web page, so anything that can open a modern browser full screen will play it: an Android TV, a streaming stick, a small media player or a mini PC on the HDMI port. Before you go live, work through the boring checklist that decides whether it survives the weekend. Turn off the screen saver and any sleep timer, set the TV's own on and off schedule or put it on a timed smart plug, use a wired network connection where the wall allows it, and check the picture again after a power cut. ChannelOS pairs a screen with a code, so the same page comes back by itself when the TV powers on.
