Know when a fax actually arrived
Every fax service says "accepted" the moment it takes your pages. Whether the machine on the other end picked up is a different question - and the answer used to live in an email, if it came at all.
Fax never went away. It went digital.
Our launch story went out on EIN Presswire: how a busy healthcare front desk got tired of the pile and built a smarter shared inbox for its digital fax number.
Tell us how it's going
A review page that takes thirty seconds, a wall where the reviews show up, and a founding list for people who want to hear when something ships.
Done, with a reason - and a tidier look
The desk asked for two things after a day of real use, so they shipped the same evening.
See it in fifty seconds
A short captioned demo of a morning at the desk: faxes arriving with names on them, one assigned, one blocked, one sent with a cover sheet.

The only setup step people got stuck on was the API token. There is now a step-by-step page with screenshots.
Not on Phone.com? Tell us what you use
FaxDesk is the desk; your fax service is the line. We published the list of services whose inbox a PC can ask for new faxes - tested, planned, and not-yet - and a one-line form to say which one you have.
Free Fax Desk 1.0: one file, no installer, nothing phones home
The first public release. Download one EXE, double-click, open the page it gives you.
Faxes arrive with a name on them
A fax from +18185550177 tells you nothing. Name the number once - Dr. Alvarez Ortho, Anthem - and every fax from it arrives with the name on it from then on.
An owner for every fax
Open a fax and it is yours; hand it to a person or a team with one click.
Sending is drag, click, done
Drop a PDF, pick who it goes to (the address book remembers), add a line for the cover sheet, confirm the full number once.
A cover sheet with your logo
Upload your logo once and every outgoing fax leads with a clean cover: your office, to, from, subject, your note, a disclaimer line if you want one.
You decide how long faxes stay
Incoming and outgoing faxes are kept for a number of days you set (60 and 60 to start), then removed.
Something you want next? Tell us - the desk that built this still asks for things weekly, and the list is short.
