Every app wanted another minute.

Another visit.  
Another scroll.  
Another reason to return.

PingRoom wanted something stranger.

It wanted you to leave.

Set the room.  
Choose the signal.  
Connect the agent.  
Go live your life.

When something important changed, PingRoom would find you.

A product that asks for less attention must earn more trust.

That might be the point.
