BeaconIQ

Smarter Space. Better Decisions. Confident Workplace Planning.

BeaconIQ gives you clear, real-time insight into how your office space is actually used, so you can reduce waste, support return-to-office strategies and make confident, data-led decisions.

With BeaconIQ, organisations move away from assumptions and manual audits and gain a reliable view of occupancy, utilisation and behaviour across their workplace.

Why BeaconIQ?

Because workplace decisions should be based on facts, not assumptions.

Many organisations struggle to understand how their space is really used. Desk bookings, manual surveys and anecdotal feedback only provide a partial picture.

BeaconIQ provides a clear, objective view of occupancy and utilisation across your workplace, enabling you to:

  • Make informed decisions about space reduction, expansion or reconfiguration
  • Align workplace strategy with real employee behaviour
  • Improve operational efficiency without compromising experience

FAQ

What is BeaconIQ

BeaconIQ is a workplace analytics platform that helps organisations understand how their offices are actually used.

Using sensors to power analytics dashboards, BeaconIQ reveals real-time and long-term occupancy patterns across meeting rooms, desks, booths and shared spaces. These insights help organisations design better workplaces, optimise space usage and make evidence-based decisions about hybrid working and return-to-office strategies.

Rather than relying on assumptions or manual surveys, BeaconIQ provides accurate, continuous workplace insight.

BeaconIQ is designed for organisations that want to better understand and optimise their workplaces.

Typical users include:

Employees – Quickly see which meeting rooms or spaces are available.

Workplace managers & facilities teams – Understand how rooms, desks and shared areas are used so they can improve layouts and space planning.

Leadership teams – Access reliable data about workplace usage to support strategic decisions about office investment, hybrid work and real estate planning.

BeaconIQ helps organisations understand:

  • True occupancy across their office estate
  • How meeting rooms, desks and booths are actually used
  • Which spaces are most popular or underused
  • Peak days and times in the office
  • Workplace behaviour trends over time

These insights help teams design better spaces, improve employee experience and support smarter workplace policies.

BeaconIQ is available in two versions depending on the scale and complexity of your workplace and the level of insight you need from your data.

BeaconIQ Essentials is a fast, simple office analytics solution designed for quick deployment.

It ships ready to install and can be set up in minutes using a QR-code guided process. Essentials is ideal for smaller offices, pilot programmes, or organisations that want to start gathering workplace data quickly.

Essentials features include:

  • Quick self-install with QR setup
  • Analytics dashboards
  • Multi-site scalability
  • Enterprise security features

 

BeaconIQ Pro is designed for larger organisations and more complex workplace environments.

It combines high-accuracy sensors, lighting integration and advanced analytics to deliver deeper insight into how spaces are used and how workplace culture evolves over time.

Pro features include:

  • High-accuracy occupancy sensing
  • Visual occupancy indicator lighting
  • Advanced analytics dashboards
  • Multi-site scalability
  • Enterprise security features
  • Integrator-installed deployment

BeaconIQ is designed specifically for workplace environments and delivers significantly higher accuracy than many basic IoT occupancy tools.

The system uses a robust sensor stack to minimise false positives and provide reliable occupancy data that organisations can confidently use for workplace planning and policy decisions.

BeaconIQ Pro can capture exact meeting start and end times, enabling highly accurate space utilisation reporting.

BeaconIQ Essentials can detect meeting start and end times with a precision of five minutes or less.

No. BeaconIQ has been designed for fast, low-disruption deployment in live workplace environments.

BeaconIQ Essentials can be installed by users in minutes with a simple one-screw installation and QR-code setup.

BeaconIQ Pro is installed by specialist integrators but still requires significantly less infrastructure and installation time than many legacy systems.

This allows organisations to start gaining insights quickly without major disruption to live office environments.

BeaconIQ is designed with privacy as a core principle.

The platform focuses on understanding how workplace spaces are used rather than tracking individuals. It provides aggregated insights into occupancy and utilisation while avoiding invasive monitoring.

Key principles include:

  • Privacy-first system design
  • No personal tracking
  • Secure data architecture
  • Suitable for enterprise and regulated environments

This approach allows organisations to gain meaningful workplace insight while maintaining employee trust.

Yes.

BeaconIQ uses an API-first architecture, allowing organisations to integrate the platform with existing workplace tools such as dashboards and reporting platforms.

This flexibility enables organisations to connect BeaconIQ data with their existing workflows, build customised workplace insights, and automate reporting where needed.

Most organisations begin gathering useful workplace insights almost immediately after installation.

With BeaconIQ, sensors can be installed and start collecting data within minutes.

Over time, the platform builds richer behavioural data, enabling organisations to track trends and make increasingly informed workplace decisions.

Yes.

BeaconIQ is particularly valuable for hybrid workplaces because it helps organisations understand how people are actually using the office.

This insight can support:

  • Return-to-office planning
  • Hybrid policy development
  • Space optimisation
  • Evidence-based real estate decisions

Instead of guessing how the office is used, organisations can rely on real behavioural data.
