Okku is a small puck that sticks to the toilet lock, and a wireless display that tells you whether someone is in there. For home and for the office.

Try it: turn the lock

The puck knows one thing only: locked or unlocked.

It sticks to any lock and reads its position. No camera, no motion sensor, so no false alarms and nothing to learn about the person behind the door.

  • Ø 32 × 9 mm
  • CR2032 battery, lasts for years
  • VHB adhesive, no drilling
  • Thread / Matter at home
  • LoRa 868 MHz at the office

Turning locks

Thumb turns, butterfly knobs, bathroom privacy locks. An accelerometer reads the angle of the knob.

Sliding bolts

A thin magnet sticks to the bolt, and the magnetic sensor sits inside the puck.

Fitted in 30 seconds

  1. Stick the puck on the lock.

  2. Lock the door, then press the puck once.

  3. Unlock the door, then press once. That's it.

Okku for home

The Galet

A matte ceramic pebble with a 2.13-inch e-ink screen. A magnet on the back holds it on the fridge, a shelf or a desk. The image stays on without using any power.

Free
Free: light background
Occupied for 4 min
Occupied: the screen inverts

Ready out of the box

The kit includes a puck and a Galet that are already paired. No hub, no app required.

Works with Matter

If you like, Okku joins Apple Home, Google Home or Home Assistant. It's optional.

A charge now and then

The screen only uses power when the status changes. The Galet charges over USB-C every few months.

One purchase, no subscription

You buy the kit once. The price will be announced at launch.

Okku for the office

A whole building, one puck per cubicle

The pucks transmit over LoRa to a Wi-Fi or Ethernet gateway that can cover the whole building, with no mesh network to set up. Each sensor is assigned to a floor, a washroom block and a type from a web console, using a QR code.

The floor display. A black-and-white e-ink screen from 7.5 to 13.3 inches, near the lifts or in the open-plan area. It shows free cubicles by type, the status of each one and the nearest free toilets on another floor.
The flip-disc board. Bistable discs, like on old station departure boards: yellow means the cubicle is free, black means it's occupied. Readable from 10 metres, it only uses power when something changes. Tap a large disc to flip it.

Frequently asked questions

Does Okku know who is in the toilet?

No. The puck only detects whether the lock is closed or open. It has no camera, no microphone and no motion sensor, and it transmits no personal data.

Will it work with my lock?

The puck fits turning locks (thumb turns, butterfly knobs, bathroom privacy locks) and sliding bolts, thanks to a small magnet stuck on the bolt.

Do I need to drill the door?

No. The puck is held by VHB adhesive. It is 32 mm across and 9 mm thick.

How long does the battery last?

The puck runs for several years on a CR2032 coin cell. It regularly sends a heartbeat and its battery level. The Galet charges over USB-C every few months.

Do I need an app or a hub?

At home, no: the puck and the Galet come paired. Adding Okku to Apple Home, Google Home or Home Assistant through Matter is optional. At the office, one gateway connected by Wi-Fi or Ethernet is enough for a building.

Why blue and orange rather than green and red?

Because blue and orange remain easy to tell apart for people with colour blindness.
