For too long, coworking software has been built by people who've never run a coworking space.
You can tell by the way they price it: per member, per seat, per transaction, per breath. You can tell by the way they gate features behind "premium" tiers, as if the ability to send an invoice or manage a booking is some kind of luxury. You can tell by the add-ons, the upsells and the enterprise-only features that should have been table stakes from day one.
The result is an industry filled with space managers who are forced to choose between the tools they need to operate and the margins they need to survive. That's not a pricing model, that's a shakedown.
We've been here before
When we started Deskie, we made a few promises to ourselves. No add-ons. No per-member fees. No feature gating. No artificial tiers designed to make you feel like you're missing out unless you pay more. Every operator, whether they manage 10 desks or 10 floors, deserves access to the amazing tools are team has built.
We've held that line! We refused to charge extra for integrations. We refused to lock CRM behind an enterprise plan. We refused to make "additional members" a perk instead of a default. We offered a free seven-day trial...a real one, with every feature unlocked...because we believe the product should, and does, sell itself.
But we knew we could do more.
Introducing flat-rate pricing
Today, we're simplifying everything. One plan. One price. No nonsense.
$99 per month, per location. Unlimited members. Every feature.
That's it. CRM, waitlists, door access, booking, billing, visitor check-in, tour scheduling, website builder, digital documents, events, screens, conferece room tablet displays, desktop/mobile access, coupons, printing, reporting, notifications - all of it. No tiers to compare. No calculator needed. No phone call with a sales rep.
Run more than one location? It's a flat $99 more. Same deal. Same everything.
And for the smaller spaces just getting started (the ones with 15 members or less who are still finding their footing) the Starter plan at $49/month isn't going anywhere. It's been a huge hit, and we're proud of that. Not every tool needs to cost a fortune to be useful.
Why now
Because the industry needs it now. Coworking is growing, but the operators who built this industry are being squeezed - and even priced out. Real estate costs are up. Member expectations are up. And the software vendors are raising prices too...not because the product got better, but because the quarterly earnings call demands it.
We watch competitors announce "new pricing" that's really just the same features reshuffled into more expensive boxes. We watch them acquire smaller tools and immediately gate them behind higher tiers. We watch them add per-member surcharges that punish operators for the one thing they should be celebrating: growth.
We think that's broken. We think software should get cheaper as it scales, not more expensive. We think every operator deserves the full toolkit, not a crippled version designed to create upgrade anxiety.
The buyout program
We also know that switching platforms is painful. Lengthy contracts (unlike our month-to-month policies), data migration, retraining your team...it's a lot. So we're putting our money where our mouth is.
If you're stuck in a contract with another provider, we'll buy it out - up to $2,500.
There's no catch and no strings attached. We'll cover your remaining obligation so you can move to Deskie without bleeding for it. Because the last thing a space operator needs is to pay for two platforms at once, or stick with a worse option because they're contractually obligated to.
Built by operators, for operators
Deskie isn't backed by a venture fund that needs a 10x return. It's built by people who've sat at the front desk, who've given tours on a Saturday morning, who've stayed late to fix the printer because a member needed something printed for a meeting at 8am.
We build this software because we needed it for our own coworking spaces. And we price it the way we wish someone had priced it for us!
Deskie is a cohesive coworking operating system, and we understand that in order for your business to truly thrive, you need the whole package.
The coworking industry deserves better tools, better pricing, and better partners. We're not waiting for permission to make that happen.
Try it
Our free seven day trial is open to everyone! If it's not for you, walk away - no hard feelings, no awkward cancellation flow, no retention specialist trying to talk you out of it!
But we think you'll stay.
