Is there any way to connect multiple devices to a single label? I've tried things like Tile so my wife can find her car keys, but if the tile is tied to a device that isn't there, we are out of luck. If I tied to my phone, and I'm not home, she can't do anything. If we tied to her phone and she has lost this and her keys, we are out of luck.

Yes. That’s very much how it actually works, except there are no actual Bluetooth connections or pairing formed that directly link a single phone to a label. Instead, multiple devices (the more the better) all listen for beacons from labels that can be shared as a team. In this way, it works really well at companies with lots of employees walking around the office, warehouse, campus, etc., and needing to keep track of shared assets.

Similar to Slack, anyone at an organisation can create a team and invite people. Then, things labeled by a team member are visible to other team members who can see it’s current location, along with who it’s with and where it’s been over time. Note that it works different than Tile. For instance, in that it doesn’t beep when searching for something. Rather, it’s location is shown on a map. The application space is targeted more toward industrial or commercial applications from hospitals to factories, warehouses to laboratories, etc., where sound might not be very helpful.

This is designed for teams from the get go. There is no connecting and everyone can find everything and every smartphone is a listener.

It's not designed as a product for B2C though really. There is no buzzer for the last 10 meter discovery. If that's not an issue then by all means. But we are fully focussed on the B2B use case.
