# Overview

> GoGuardian Visitor runs check-in and check-out at your school: screen visitors, print badges, record late arrivals and guardian pickups, and let students check themselves out.

GoGuardian Visitor runs check-in and check-out at your school for visitors, late arrivals, guardian pickups, and students checking themselves out. Staff check visitors and students in and out from the **Front Desk**, and visitors and students can also check themselves in and out at a kiosk.

Every check-in shows up on the **Front Desk** right away, whether it started at a kiosk or the desk. When a check-in needs a staff decision, the alert appears on the **Front Desk** before the visitor or student finishes the form.

**Accessible via:** Chrome or Microsoft Edge on front desk computers. Kiosks (iPad, Windows, or ChromeOS) and badge printers are optional. See [Compatibility and Requirements](https://docs.goguardian.com/products/visitor/compatibility-and-requirements.md).
