Does the preview show an accurate desk count for the square footage, or just a mood image?

The preview reflects real-world hot desk density — the same desk-to-square-foot ratios operators actually build to, not an artificially sparse render. Tell it you're fitting 60 desks into a 4,000 sq ft floor, and the layout reflects that density, so prospects see the real walkway width and desk spacing rather than a showroom photo with half as many desks as the plan calls for.

Does this work on a raw, unbuilt floor shell, or only an existing coworking space?

Both. Most operators use it on a raw shell mid-construction — exposed ceiling, unfinished flooring — to pre-lease before the build-out is done. It also works on an existing floor you're reconfiguring from private offices into hot desking.

Can we show a prospective corporate account their own logo and colors in the space?

Yes. For flex-office and corporate account pitches, describe the tenant's brand colors and signage placement and the preview applies them to the zone they'd occupy — their logo on the wall, their brand color on the accent furniture, not a generic coworking rendering.

How is this different from a stacking plan or a 3D architectural rendering?

A stacking plan shows numbered boxes on a floor plate; a CAD render takes a design team days and ends up looking like a catalog photo of no one's actual space. Makeover generates a photorealistic preview from a phone photo of the real floor in under 10 seconds, accurate to the columns, windows, and ceiling height that are actually there.

Prospects worry the hot desk area will be noisy next to the lounge or phone booths — can the preview address that?

The preview shows the physical layout — acoustic panels, plant walls, and buffer distance between the lounge and the open desks — so prospects can see the separation you've designed instead of just taking your word for it. It's a visual answer to the noise objection, not a decibel guarantee.

Can we show a prospect more than one layout option for the same floor?

Yes. Run separate previews for different configurations — higher-density open hot desking versus a mixed layout with more phone booths and pods — and let the prospect compare density and privacy trade-offs side by side before they commit to a membership tier.

Are floor photos and layout renders retained after the tour?

That's your call, not ours — it's your software. We build the storage and retention policy around what your business needs and make sure it meets HIPAA, GDPR, or any other regulation that applies. No training on your data, ever.

There's no off-the-shelf plan, so there's no published price list. Share your details and we'll discuss project scope and pricing on a free consultation call — see /pricing for details.

What is a hot desk layout preview preview?

A hot desk layout preview tool uses AI to generate a photorealistic image of a coworking floor once it's fitted out with desks, phone booths, and lounge furniture. The operator photographs the existing or raw floor plate, and the tool produces a rendered preview showing desk density, walkways, and shared amenities in the exact space a prospective member or corporate account would occupy. Coworking operators use this during tours and leasing pitches to close membership and flex-office agreements before construction or reconfiguration is finished.

Why it matters

Hot desk memberships run $150–$450 a seat per month in most markets, and flex-office corporate accounts — the higher-margin deals operators actually compete for — run well above that with multi-month or multi-year commitments. Those decisions rarely close on one tour: a facilities manager comparing three coworking brands for a 25-person distributed team needs to picture desk density, noise, and their own branding on the actual floor, not the flagship location two blocks over that hosted the walkthrough. Reconfiguring or building out a floor for hot desking runs $50–$150 a square foot, so operators are frequently pre-leasing space that isn't finished yet — asking a prospect to sign off a stacking plan and a mood board. A photorealistic preview of the exact floor plate closes that gap.

Who uses this

Community managers and sales reps running prospect tours use it to show a floor before the build-out is complete. Workplace strategists and general managers use it in enterprise pitches to place a prospective corporate account's own branding and headcount into a specific zone of the floor. Real estate brokers representing coworking operators use it in pre-leasing packages for locations still under construction.

Heard this from a prospective tenant?

A facilities manager asks how many desks will actually fit without it feeling like a call center floor, and all you have is a stacking plan with numbered boxes.

You tour them through your flagship location instead of the floor they'd actually lease, and they say "but that's not this building."

They ask to see their own logo on the wall and their team's headcount at the desks before they'll take the proposal to their CFO — and you have nothing to show them.

How hot desk layout preview previews work

Three steps. Under 10 seconds. No design skills needed.

Photograph the floor plate

Any phone camera, on the raw shell or the current layout. Exposed ceiling grid and construction dust are fine — the AI works from what's actually there.

AI generates the fitted-out layout

The model places hot desks, phone booths, meeting pods, and lounge furniture at real-world density, in your brand palette, on the floor's actual columns and window lines.

Present it in the tour or the pitch deck

Their own floor, finished, with their branding if it's an enterprise account. The lease conversation moves from "picture it" to "when can we move in."
