1. Technology overview

Freespace is a workplace management software company founded in 2015 to support the transition to a digital workplace. The site is operated by Workplace Fabric Limited, with offices in Rickmansworth, United Kingdom, and Mumbai, India. It helps organisations with hybrid offices understand how space is really used and cut real estate costs.

The platform combines desk and room booking, a Space Manager for hybrid space planning, workplace analytics, occupancy sensors that also report air quality, wayfinding digital signage and SPOT integrations that feed building automation. Analytics can ingest badge and Wi-Fi data alongside sensor data. Space Manager, launched in October 2026, uses an AI planning engine to test layouts, seating plans and attendance patterns and pushes the result to apps and signage. Customers include global insurers, energy companies, professional services firms, co-working operators and campuses.

2. Highlighted features & specifications

  • Desk and room booking: Employees reserve desks, rooms and car park spaces through apps, Teams and Slack.
  • Space Manager: AI planning engine generates layouts and schedules from occupancy data and employee preferences.
  • Occupancy sensors: Measure real-time occupancy, utilisation and air quality.
  • Workplace analytics: Real-time dashboards that ingest badge and Wi-Fi data, with peak usage modelling.
