Remotely send commands to any cloud endpoint with one click

Built-in global LTE-M and an embedded eSIM mean it works right out of the box. Each press sends a secure event to your cloud — AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or your own server.

Learn how it connects

Deploy fast

Register in minutes and start sending events. No local IT setup required.

Operate anywhere

LTE-M coverage keeps buttons online in offices, factories, or remote sites.

Scale with control

Manage devices, data paths, and alerts from one Soracom console.

Automate any workflow with a click pattern

Assign single, double, or long clicks to different actions or endpoints.

Trigger a webhook, call an API, reorder supplies, or alert a technician — all without writing firmware or wiring a gateway.

Secure every connection from device to cloud

Each button uses SIM-based identity and LTE-M encryption for end-to-end protection.

Private routing through Soracom Virtual Private Gateway (VPG) or a VPN keeps data off the public internet and aligned with your policies.

Unlock entirely new ideas and workflows with a button

Use your own cloud logic to define what happens when the button is pressed. Each click can order products, call for a ride, start or stop a task, send an alert, or capture feedback – all without writing new hardware code.
