Straight answer

How much does Kadence cost?

Kadence doesn't publish prices. Every plan on its pricing page goes through a demo or a quote, it bills for people who make a booking each month, and contracts run a minimum of one year, billed annually.

If you need a number today: Gridero starts at $29 a month for a small office, and Core is $199 a month per office with unlimited people. Every price is on our pricing page, billing is month to month, and the 14-day free trial needs no credit card.

Who this is for

Offices where the map has to match the building

Once people share desks, booking stops being a convenience. People need to find a desk on the busy days, and whoever runs the office needs the map to match the building, not last year's layout.

Gridero is built that way: desks, rooms and floors are modelled as different things, and space you switch off is hidden from your team instead of showing as bookable. What people see on the map is what is really there.

Any size office

From $29 a month for a small team to one flat price per office with unlimited people. A per-seat bill never creeps up as you hire.

One office or several

Gridero bills per site, so a second and third floor plan cost the same as the first one did.

Nobody's whole job

Whoever runs the office also runs onboarding, vendors, and the coffee order. Booking software is item six.

Founding customer offer

Switching is the hard part. So we made it the cheap part.

Nobody changes booking tools because a feature list is prettier. They change when the switch stops costing them a month of evenings.

$199 a month per office, unlimited people.

Or from $29 a month for a small office. Month to month, so you can run it alongside your current contract until that one lapses. Nothing to unwind if it is not for you.

Set up by us, run by you.

Send whatever you already have: a PDF, a photo of the fire-escape plan, the floor plan you uploaded to your current tool. We build it in Gridero, then you move desks yourself by dragging them. Moving a desk should never mean waiting on a vendor.

One flat price, not per seat.

Hiring thirty people doesn't change the invoice.

A direct line to the founders.

Feature requests go straight to the people writing the code, while the roadmap is still shapeable.

Kadence and Gridero

Same job. Very different way to buy it.

Kadence is a broad workplace-operations platform, with office moves and visitor management in its higher tiers. If what you need is desks and rooms on your real floor plan, and a price before a sales process, the way you buy matters as much as the feature list.

Buying Kadence

  • No published prices. You get a price after a demo or a quote.
  • Contracts run a minimum of one year, billed annually.
  • Billed for people who make a booking that month.

Per Kadence's public pricing page, October 2026.

Buying Gridero

  • From $29 a month for a small office, or $199 a month per office on Core with unlimited people. Not per space, not per seat.
  • Every price is on our pricing page. Self-serve signup, no sales call.
  • Billed monthly. Nothing to commit to a year ahead.
  • Send us your floor plan and we build it for you.
