DeskRoster

DeskRoster is a web + mobile app that makes hybrid office attendance predictable without turning into surveillance. Teams set simple “in-office intents” (days, time windows, location) and the app auto-suggests a weekly roster that balances capacity, team overlap goals, and personal constraints (commute, caregiving, focus days). It integrates with Google/Microsoft calendars and Slack/Teams to confirm plans and handle last-minute swaps. Admins get a clean capacity view (floors, neighborhoods, meeting rooms) and can set lightweight rules (e.g., “support team must overlap Tue/Thu”). The AI component focuses on scheduling recommendations and conflict resolution, not monitoring. The product wins by being boringly reliable: fewer no-show desks, fewer overcrowded days, and fewer “who’s in?” messages. It’s built for companies that are too small for complex workplace suites but big enough to feel the pain.
