Facility teams often work with little real-time insight. They walk the floors with clipboards, check badge logs, or trust what the calendar says about meetings. But none of that tells you who’s actually in the building now or how your spaces work hour by hour. Occuspace fixes that. This occupancy intelligence platform uses sensors and cloud analytics to show you real space use, in real time. There are no cameras or personal data - just anonymous counts, traffic patterns, and dwell times. You get what you need to make smart choices about your workplace, energy, and real estate.
In the past, facility management meant reacting to issues and following set schedules. If you heated a space, you did it based on guesses. Cleaning ran on a fixed route. Expansion plans relied on gut feelings.
This wastes resources - and money. ENERGY STAR says up to 30% of energy gets wasted in commercial buildings. That’s because systems often run while spaces are empty. Cleaning teams tackle rooms no one used. Real estate teams lease space that sits vacant most days.
Sensor-driven data changes the game. You see exactly how people use your spaces, minute by minute. AI crunches the data, removes the noise, and delivers clear metrics you can use right away. No more guessing. You get to plan and adjust with confidence.
Occuspace uses two types of sensors to measure people in spaces. Not every sensor fits every space. Large open areas need broad coverage to track movement patterns. Small rooms need accurate headcounts at the door or inside.
Occuspace gives you Macro and Micro sensors for total coverage. Macro sensors track big-picture trends across lobbies, corridors, or whole floors. Micro sensors capture room-by-room activity in conference rooms, phone booths, and focus pods. With both, you get trends at the portfolio level plus accurate room detail.
Macro sensors pick up Bluetooth and WiFi signals from nearby devices - laptops, phones, wearables - and send summary counts to the cloud.
You never collect any device details. The sensors scan for signals, not identities. No cameras or personal data. That privacy-first setup makes Macro sensors a smart fit for open spaces - lobbies, corridors, office floors, cafeterias - where you want to track foot traffic, occupancy, and movement, but keep it private.
Use Macro sensors to plan capacity, staff with real numbers, and spot empty or busy zones. Stop guessing - see it in real time.
Micro sensors use mmWave tech to track occupancy in smaller spaces by bouncing signals off people and objects. They count how many are present, without picking up personal info.
Micro sensors report occupancy as 0, 1, 2, or 3+ people. They fit any shared small space - like conference rooms, phone booths, or four-person meeting rooms. Room occupancy changes fast; Macro sensors might miss that five-minute call, but Micro sensors catch it.
Practical for ops and IT teams. Micro sensors run on mains power, forget about swapping batteries. There’s no need for a dedicated WiFi connection. One Micro sensor covers around 400 square feet, with up to 19 feet of range. Setup takes seconds. Just plug it in and calibrate.
Both Macro and Micro sensors send their signals to the Occuspace cloud. Machine learning algorithms process that data, using years of training and millions of square feet in observations. The models filter out noise and duplicates. You get an accurate, minute-by-minute tally of how many are in each area.
Occuspace calls this "AI-powered accuracy." It’s a true census, real-time, privacy built in, and no personal info collected. Ever.
The upshot? You get validated metrics - occupancy counts, traffic, dwell times. The system never tracks personal or device identity information, keeping things simple and secure.
Occuspace gives you core metrics to track workspace performance:
These numbers help you cut costs with confidence. You’ll see which floors are full, which spaces go unused, and where to shift resources.
Occuspace delivers occupancy data in multiple ways. The analytics dashboard shows both real-time and historical trends. Filter by space, compare zones, export data to CSV - whatever works for you.
Need automation? Pull in occupancy, traffic, and dwell time via REST API. Push real-time counts to building automation systems, workplace management tools, or even digital signage.
API fields cover room ID, timestamp, people count, and visits. It’s ready for triggers: set cleaning schedules based on demand, adjust HVAC as zones fill up or empty out, and show live space availability so employees can pick the right spot.
Live data integrations let you set capacity thresholds, trigger alerts, and adjust ventilation - on the fly. It all connects smoothly with systems you already use.
Occupancy insights upgrade your planning and daily operations:
One organization installed Occuspace sensors across a 1-million-square-foot pilot. With live data on occupancy, dwell times, and traffic, leadership saw whole areas being underused - lots of empty workstations and vacant space. They launched a "use it or lose it" policy for space allocation.
The results:
Once they saw the ROI, the company went bigger - permanently installing sensors across 5 million square feet. They worked smarter with occupancy analytics, rolling out better energy management, targeted cleaning and food service, and smoother employee experiences. All with ROI from their first pilot.
Energy use is a top expense for any commercial building. ENERGY STAR says 30% or more of energy is often wasted running systems on static schedules instead of actual demand.
Occupancy-based controls fix this. Lawrence Berkeley National Lab found an average 24% energy savings from occupancy-based lighting in commercial buildings.
For HVAC, Pacific Northwest National Lab found HVAC savings of 17.8% with advanced occupancy sensors. Smart sensors deliver the data. Building systems adjust in real time - ventilate only where and when people are present, not on a timer.
That’s how you run a sustainable, efficient facility. Save energy, keep people comfortable, and use every dollar wisely.
Occuspace puts privacy first, delivers live data, and runs on AI - so you make better calls about your space. Sensor data goes direct to the cloud; machine learning turns it into actionable insights. No personal data. No privacy headache.
Use live counts and data exports to trim space costs, improve operations, and slash energy waste. The analytics dashboard gives you 24/7 visibility. The API enables rapid automation. Digital signage guides people to open rooms.
If you’re ready to stop guessing, see how Occuspace brings immediate efficiency to your portfolio. Get live occupancy data in days, not months. Size real estate for today’s demands. Align your operations to real people, real data. Rethink your workspace - turn it into actionable intelligence.
