Illegal robocalls cost Americans an estimated $10 billion annually, according to Pindrop Security.  Kedlin aims to dramatically reduce illegal robocalls, eliminating the annoying disruptions and reducing the economic impact for those affected. Call Control Home is a simple device that plugs into your home telephone, synchronizes with Kedlin's spam servers and disconnects incoming callers identified by the service as spam before the phone rings.

The Kedlin Company successfully released its first mobile app in 2008, which was specifically designed to target this problem and has since been downloaded over six million times. 

"We've amassed the largest database in existence through crowd sourcing complaint information from millions of people who use our mobile app and partnerships with Federal and State agencies," says Ben Sharpe, Kedlin's founder and CEO.  "Today we're launching Call Control Home on Kickstarter to bring our proven technology into people's homes."

Kedlin's technology has assisted law enforcement agencies responsible for tracking down and stopping illegal robocalls.  Kedlin's founder and CEO Ben Sharpe was an invited guest to the recent Federal Trade Commission Robocall Summit and Kedlin is participating in an ongoing data sharing program with other state and federal agencies.

Call Control Home will run on Kickstarter until September 20, 2013 and aims to raise a minimum of $100,000 to launch the product.  Those interested can visit http://kck.st/16qAreo to learn how to help fund the project and receive one of the first production units of Call Control Home.
