Straight answer

Looking for a free option?

Gridero doesn't have a permanent free plan, and we'd rather say so in the first paragraph than three pages in.

What we do have starts at $29 a month for a small office, and $199 a month per office with unlimited people, with your floor plan built for you. It is month to month, so the way to find out whether it is worth paying for is to run it for a month. If it is not, you cancel and there is no contract to get out of.

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.

Ten founding slots in total. Read the full founding customer program, including what we ask for in return.

Skedda and Gridero

Same job. Very different way to buy it.

Skedda is a well-rated product with a lot of happy customers, and none of this is a swipe at the software. What stops smaller offices is how you buy it. For a company of 20 people with a couple of meeting rooms, that's a lot of process for a desk booking tool.

Buying Skedda

Plans start at $99 a month, priced per space and billed annually.
Every paid plan is bought by talking to sales first. There's no self-serve checkout.
