We’ve created the world’s most advanced workplace occupancy sensor.
It’s private by design (protecting your team’s privacy), has enormous coverage (1,000 sq.ft/ 20 desks), collects open area data passively and best of all delivers highly accurate(<30cm/1 ft) workplace occupancy and utilisation analytics in real-time.
Combined with an analytics platform that’s been designed for frontline property teams, we’re obsessed with simplifying workplace analytics to help transform workplaces for the better.
