Desk allocation, triggered by your key card

AI desk booking that makes the decision for your people

Hybrid working replaced the commute question with a dozen small ones. Jibbie's AI desk booking system reads key card taps and calendars, then assigns each person a desk beside the people they are working with that day — no reservation, no floor map, no choice fatigue.

How the AI allocates desks

Three steps your employees never have to take

An automated pipeline runs behind every office day: signals in, proximity scoring, desk assigned.

01

Your key card tap is the booking

Turnstile and access-control events stream into Jibbie the moment someone enters the building, so the system knows who is actually on site rather than who intended to be.

Nobody opens an app to reserve a desk.

02

The proximity model picks the desk

Every free desk is scored against today's calendar: who you are meeting, which teammates have already tapped in, and which zone your team is anchored to. The highest-scoring desk is assigned.

Nobody compares floor maps at 9AM.

03

You get a notification, not a task

The allocation lands on the employee's floor plan with a one-tap swap if the desk does not suit, which also dispatches facilities when a desk is faulty.

Nobody raises a ticket and chases it.

What you stop deciding

Desk booking, minus the booking

Traditional hot-desking tools hand employees a map and a reservation deadline. Jibbie's allocation AI removes both and still guarantees a seat that makes sense.

Desk booking apps

  • Open a booking app the night before
  • Guess which desk is near your team tomorrow
  • Arrive to find your booked desk taken
  • Re-book, or work from a corner all day

Automated by Jibbie

  • Tap in — the allocation has already run
  • Proximity scoring seats you beside today's collaborators
  • Live occupancy means allocated desks are real desks
  • One tap reassigns you and flags the faulty desk

The AI's decision, delivered: today's desk, with a one-tap swap or issue report.

Team proximity, decided per day

Zero desk decisions per employee, per office day.

Because allocation is automatic, seating adapts daily instead of being frozen into a static plan. Teams sit together on collaboration days and spread out when the floor is busy, and every assignment feeds occupancy analytics you can take into a lease review.
