FAQ

Does Kadence offer coworking space?

Yes, through Kadence Flex. Teams book coworking desks and rooms worldwide through our LiquidSpace partnership, alongside the offices you own or lease. If a coworking marketplace is the main need, Gable is built around it.

Can our own AI assistants act on the workplace?

Yes. Kadence leads on AI for the workplace, and it's built into the platform rather than bolted on as a chatbot. Kadence MCP connects Claude, ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot to Kadence, so people book desks, rooms and parking, invite visitors, and ask occupancy and planning questions from the assistants they already use, each signed in with your SSO and working under their own permissions. Kadence AI also works in Teams and Slack, and admins get the SpaceOps AI planning agent with guided workflows to restack, consolidate or find space for a team. Gable offers Gable AI inside its own product.

How is Kadence priced?

Kadence bills by active user, with a one-year minimum billed annually, and you get a quote in your local currency. See kadence.co/pricing for details.
