StarPTT – Business Push to Talk for Android and Web
Enterprise Push to Talk Software
Instant communication for operations teams, warehouses, transportation and technical assistance
StarPTT brings the logic of the walkie talkie radio to Android smartphones and browsers: you press a button, you speak to the group or to a single user, and communication arrives immediately without phone calls, chats or unnecessary steps.
The solution is designed for companies that have people on the move, distributed departments or activities where coordination is needed in a few seconds. The central server manages users, companies, channels, priorities and connected devices from a web dashboard.

Why use StarPTT instead of just standard radios
With StarPTT, communication does not depend on the range of a traditional radio: if the device has a data network or Wi-Fi, two remote offices can talk on the same channel as if they were in the same building.
Traditional radios remain useful in some contexts, but in many companies they become rigid: they require dedicated equipment, manual management of groups, coverage limited to the available infrastructure and little administrative visibility. StarPTT was created to give the same immediacy of the radio button, adding the flexibility of a software platform.
| Operational need | Standard radio | StarPTT |
|---|---|---|
| Devices | Dedicated equipment to purchase, configure and distribute. | Compatible Android smartphones, web browsers and PTT accessories. |
| Coverage | It depends on the radio coverage and the infrastructure installed. | It works on Wi-Fi or data network, where the device has connectivity. |
| Working groups | Channels that are often rigid and not easy to administer remotely. | Channels, sub-channels, users and priorities managed from web dashboards. |
| Targeted communication | Lots of traffic on the common channel, with risk of confusion. | PTT towards group, sub-group or single online user. |
| Corporate control | Limited visibility into users, devices, and assignments. | Centralized administration for companies, admins, users and channels. |
A company radio always at hand
StarPTT is designed to reduce wasted time between calls, voice messages and group chats. The operator opens the app, remains connected to his channel and uses the floating widget to speak even while using other operating applications.
Quick Push to Talk
The PTT button allows you to talk to the selected channel without searching for contacts or opening conversations.
Flexible channels
Core groups, sub-channels and user assignments allow you to separate departments, locations or teams.
Word priority
Priorities help manage who can interrupt a communication when a message is urgent.
