Today, more than 71% of mobile communications flowing over wireless internet, Wi-Fi is now the biggest transmitter of communications around the world.

It’s a fact that Wi-Fi has re-shaped the way that we travel, work and interact with each other around the world. We use Wi-Fi so frequently that many of us don’t give it a second thought anymore.

Despite this fact, the way we connect to this technology has not changed much since its creation.

As we realized that, we took it upon ourselves to make it more intuitive, more secured and more simple for everyone. We couldn’t be happier or more excited to share it with the world.

Say hello to Link&Start, a smart device that’s store and share your Wi-Fi access for you.

A Small thing that makes Big changes — Your time is precious. Let us write it for you.

No matter your country, language or age. Touch it and that’s it, you’re connected!

Link&Start is a small, beautiful and eco-friendly device that works as great as it looks. It comes fully loaded with contactless & battery-less technology, a stunning minimal design and secured.

HOW IT WORKS

● Contactless — Say goodbye to typing errors. Unlock your smartphone and touch it, as simple as that!

● Battery-less — The NFC technology allow to use directly the energy generated by your smartphone. Unlike the Bluetooth, the NFC consumes almost nothing!

● Secured — Works only if you are close to it (maximum range of about 10 centimeters or 4 inches inch) and the data inside are secured!

● Environmentally friendly — Because you no longer need a post-it or sheet to record your accesses. But also because the Link&Start device does not have a battery or permanent power supply.

● Pre-configured — Each of our devices can be pre-configured, either with the Wi-Fi password of your choice, or directly with a unique and secured ten-character password.

Who Made Link&Start?

We’re AlleZou — a French Startup based in Paris.

As a small independent studio that lives and breathes everything changing people life or habits. We want to enhance this world by changing the way that people interact each other.

Link&Start — The easiest way to connect our smartphones to the Wi-Fi is here. This is just the beginning…

Stay connected!

Our mission

Everything we do, we believe in challenging the status quo. We believe in interacting differently. The way we challenge the status quo is by making our products beautifully designed, simple to use and user friendly.

The way we interact with everyday things is changing and at the heart of it all is the smartphone we use to message, tweet, search, and connect with the world around us.

For now, our first mission is to change the way that how millions of people connect their smartphones to the Wi-Fi.

Travelers, customers, collaborators, friends or family, it’s really annoying for them to ask and type every time the Wi-Fi access.

Simplify your life and save your loved ones and/or customers time!

Genesis of the project

After the visit of foreign friends in Paris, we noticed that they all had the same need: to have access to Internet and more precisely to Wi-Fi.

On the one hand, younger wanted to watch videos and play games on their smartphones; on the other hand, older wanted access to email and social networks.

Some of them had the wrong password or simply didn’t know how to connect to Wi-Fi. So we had to enter the access on each of their smartphones at that time.

It’s since this observation that we came up with the idea of creating a system that would allow everyone to connect to Wi-Fi autonomously.

To do this, we have studied the many possibilities of current technologies, and have developed a new way to connect to Wi-Fi: simple and intuitive.

Link&Start is, therefore a springboard to a new world of effortless communication.

Wi-Fi has never been more accessible! Stay connected!

Further information

WHAT IS NFC?

As a reminder, NFC tags are small electronic components without power supply that contain information, which are transmitted when approaching a compatible reader.

They are used for example on products to find out more, at bus stops to know the arrival of the next one, etc…. It’s a way to link the real and the virtual.

REQUIREMENTS

You only need a smartphone with NFC and obviously a internet connection (with Wi-Fi enabled)! Most of the actual and new smartphones are equipped with this technology.

Apple — In order to use Link&Start solution to connect Apple’s smartphones to the Wi-Fi, you’ll need:

a iPhone 7 or newer with at least iOS11

a free app due to iOS limitations.

Security and Confidentiality

All our Link&Start devices are secured because:

a device will only send you accesses if you pass your smartphone close to it (2–3cm). Strangers cannot access your Wi-Fi network.

a device is not directly connected to your Wi-Fi network. It is therefore not possible for a potential hacker to access it.

only the owner of the device can change the Wi-Fi access stored inside by using our mobile application (in a first step, only for Android).

We know that the security and confidentiality of your data are sensitive matters, that’s why we make them our priority.
