At Shortcut Labs, our product roadmap is largely written by our partners in healthcare, safety, and facility management. Over the past year, many of you have shared the need for a controller that offers more distinct inputs without sacrificing the simplicity that makes a Flic button so effective.

Today, we are proud to formally introduce Flic Duo for Business Partners.

Flic Duo is a significant step forward for our hardware family. It features a dual-button interface designed to handle more complex workflows—simple enough for a patient to use, but capable enough for advanced industrial controls.

Flic Duo Hardware Available Now

We are pleased to announce that Flic Duo hardware is available for order today.

For our B2B partners, we know that branding is essential. The Flic Duo has been designed so that the full top cover can be printed with your custom graphics, allowing the device to seamlessly become part of your brand identity. Samples are ready to ship immediately.

Software Roadmap: Rolling Out Capabilities

We want to be fully transparent about how we are rolling out software support for this new device so you can plan your integration development accordingly.

  • Coming in December 2025 (Free SDK Update): We will be releasing an update to our standard App SDK (flic2lib), Flic Hub Studio and Flic Device Manager. This will enable support for Flic Duo’s core inputs: standard button pushes and swipe gesture commands. This is perfect for partners who want to integrate the new hardware controls right away.
  • Coming in Q1 2026 (Audio Feedback): We will be releasing support for the Flic Duo’s built-in buzzer. This will allow your applications to provide direct audio feedback to the user, confirming actions or alerting them to status changes.
  • Also coming in Q1 2026: Early next year, we will introduce a service layer subscription to the Flic SDK. This optional tier will unlock deeper data, including access to the accelerometer for advanced fall detection algorithms and audit trails. 

Accessories & Wearability

Versatility is key for your end-users. We are launching Flic Duo with a suite of accessories ready today:

  • Metal Clip: For secure attachment to clothing or belts.
  • Metal Wall Mount: For fixed installations in rooms or vehicles.
  • Waterproof Silicone Cover: For added protection in rugged environments.

We are also currently developing a dedicated Lanyard Holder and a Silicone Wrist Strap. In the meantime, the Metal Clip has been designed to double as a lanyard holder, ensuring you can deploy wearable solutions immediately.

Get Started

We are incredibly grateful for the feedback that helped shape this product. We believe Flic Duo will open new doors for safety and efficiency in your services.
