Most prison communication platforms feel like a punishment for the people on the outside too. InmateDB is built to feel like the apps you already use every day — so staying in touch with your loved one is simple, affordable, and human.
Enter their name or BOP register number. Find the exact facility they're in — fast, free, no guesswork.
Send and receive text messages directly through your dashboard or by texting a dedicated number. Your loved one replies from their tablet.
Upload photos or send paper letters — we print and mail them to the facility. One dashboard, everything covered.
Find any federal inmate by name or BOP register number. Know exactly where your loved one is, always.
Send and receive messages directly from your phone or dashboard. Plans from $9.99/month, no per-message charges.
Upload high-quality photos and we print and mail them to your loved one at their facility. No more waiting weeks.
Write and send traditional letters. We print, envelope, and mail them — works even at facilities that restrict digital delivery.
Inmates access ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and DeepSeek through simple email commands. Learning, planning, entertainment — all from a facility tablet.
On our Full Access plan, your loved one gets a personal number — direct messaging, no shared pool, no confusion.
Prison communication has been broken for decades. High fees, outdated interfaces, zero transparency. Families pay the price — literally and emotionally.
InmateDB was built from the ground up to feel normal. Like texting. Like sending a photo. Like staying connected without thinking about it.
No per-message fees. No surprises. Just stay connected.
I appreciate you and the team. I have really benefitted from your service these last 3 years. You give a level of service that none of the other services give — with your feedback and how you deal with me personally.

Brandon HoltYour service is excellent. It is an invaluable assistance. This would be a great help for users who have family overseas. Thank you so much!
Ella BennettStaying in touch with a loved one in federal prison shouldn't require a law degree, a second job's worth of fees, or a crash course in outdated government software. It should feel like what it is — family.
