With Gecko you can trigger, secure, remind, capture, track and locate.

Perform your favorite and most common actions with a simple Gecko gesture, without taking your phone out of your pocket.




Turn up the tunes! Gecko controls music on your phone.

Gecko changes tracks and controls volume with a flick of your wrist.

Stick a Gecko Tag on your door, purse, luggage or other valuables.

A Gecko stuck on your door will alert you every time the door opens. If you need to secure a window or a basement door that is not safe for kids, you can count on your Gecko to send you an alert on your phone every time the door is opened. Catch the intruder at the right moment.

Go ahead and take a nap while you are waiting for your flight. Gecko will take care of your bags and alerts you if someone moves them. Feel safer with a Gecko.

We leave it to your imagination to use Gecko’s motion detection alert feature.

Put your Gecko on a pill box and monitor your loved ones medication schedule. Gecko alerts you when the pillbox hasn’t been used at the scheduled time. Alerts can be sent to loved ones who may be in other part of the world, so you can ensure that you – or your kids or parents - never miss another dosage again.

Gecko offers extend-ability to open a whole new set of applications. 

Gecko comes with an extension port to connect with other devices and trigger an actions.

Say CHEESE! Get in the frame, wave your arm and let Gecko trigger the camera.

How many times have you wished for an extra person to take a picture so you don't get left out of the frame? 

Well, now the Gecko is your extra arm. All you need to do is place your phone or DSLR in position and get in the frame. Wave your arm and Gecko does the rest for you.
You can also program Gecko to take pictures either once or multiple times at fixed intervals. The time interval and number of snaps can be programmed from the Gecko App on your smart phone.

Tag anything you need to Track and Find.

Put Gecko on your key chain and you can keep track or find your keys easily.


Be it your wallet, laptop or pet. You can find your phone too with Gecko, even if your phone is laying somewhere in the couch on Silent Mode.

Never again fret 'Now where did I put those keys?'

You have better things to do. Gecko will remember where you left your keys, phone, wallet, bag - just about anything! So go ahead, tag it with a Gecko and you can locate anything within a 100 feet radius.

Tag your pets with Gecko and get alerted when they try to sneak out of your home.

Or... Let's say you are at a mall and took your eyes off your child for just a moment to look at a price tag...now he's not there! Ditch that agony. Tag them with a Gecko and get alerted when your kids wander.
Track: Track anything tagged with Gecko within 100 feet radius from the phone. Or track Phone from Gecko within 100 feet range.
The moment any one moves out of the 100 feet range, get an audible alert on both.

It gets better!!! Lost something out of a 100 foot radius? 

Just declare your item as lost. The Gecko community will find it for you. You may invite your friends to download the Gecko App even if they don't own a Gecko, then help you to find your lost items tagged to Gecko. 

Your friends can download the app and help you find your stuff’s Geo location. 

Widen your Gecko World by simply connecting to your Facebook account and let Gecko send request to all your friends or other actual Gecko users

The Gecko Story:

We started off building Gecko almost an year ago. We wanted to build a versatile and extendible Bluetooth Smart device that offers long battery life, with replaceable battery and motion sensor.

We wanted Gecko to be an easy to use and fit into everyone's lifestyle.

We have completed Hardware and Firmware design. We went through two rounds of testing and pilot production with the initial version of the product in a different form factor deployed in a couple of use cases. 

Initial version of gecko: We have built the complete ecosystem of Chipset vendors and manufacturing partner to mass produce Gecko.

The basic Gecko application is working on iOS devices and Samsung Galaxy S4. We are currently testing the Gecko App for Android 4.3. We are now working on integrating additional features and connected Gecko cloud.
