What Selfdesk takes over

From contract to billing.

Your coworkers handle their part themselves. Selfdesk connects the steps – and you only step in when it's needed.

  1. Contract

    Become a member

    Pick a plan, sign the contract and manage their own details.

    You confirm the contract with one click.

  2. Booking

    Find a spot

    See free desks and rooms and book them right away.

    Guests book without an account, too.
  3. Access

    Just walk in

    Open the door straight from the app – matched to booking and permission.

    With a Nuki smart lock.

  4. Billing

    Close the month

    Bookings and purchases land in billing automatically.

    At month-end, one click is enough.

Your day today

Your coworking space shouldn't hang on your phone.

Lots of small questions keep interrupting your day.

  • Is the meeting room still free tomorrow?

  • Could you send me the invoice again?

  • How do I get in tonight?

With Selfdesk, many of these questions never reach you.

In three steps

How your space runs with Selfdesk.

  1. 1

    Set up your space

    You create areas, desks, rooms and plans once, in the browser.

  2. 2

    Coworkers handle their day themselves

    Coworkers sign their contract themselves and book in the app. You confirm with one click.

    Selfdesk dashboard: members with new contracts to confirm
  3. 3

    You steer from the dashboard

    Who is in today, what is open and what the month brought in.

Managing in the app

You run your space from your phone.

Confirm a contract, see who is in today, bill the month: it all works in the same app your coworkers use, even when you are not at the space. Most coworking software only lets you do this at a computer.

  • Selfdesk app for operators: Manage with two contracts to confirm, the month's billing and today's occupancy

    What's on today

    Who is in, what is waiting for you and what is due for billing.

  • Selfdesk app for operators: two new contracts with approve and reject

    Confirm contracts

    One tap, and the door access comes with it.

  • Selfdesk app for operators: month-end run with four members and the button that creates the invoices

    Bill the month

    All of the month's invoices with one button.

Only creating the space and embedding booking on your own website happen in the browser. Everything else works in the app and in the browser.

Built from our own experience

Selfdesk grew out of running our own coworking space.

Ausguck in Kiel: desks in front of tall lattice windows

We run a coworking space in Kiel ourselves and had the same questions on our phones. That is why we built Selfdesk, our own coworking software – and we use it there ourselves.

More about us

Grunwaldvilla in Hemau runs on Selfdesk: twelve desks, two rooms.

CoWorkLand

We are members of CoWorkLand eG. CoWorkLand and Selfdesk are working towards a partnership, with the aim of building a software tailored to the cooperative's spaces.

Before you start

What you need to start – and what you don't.

Do I need a Nuki lock?

No. Contracts, bookings and billing work without a door lock. If you have a Nuki lock, you connect it through your Nuki Web account.

Do I need a Stripe account?

Only if members are to pay by card or direct debit, and for the kiosk, day tickets and guest bookings. Opening one costs nothing; Stripe takes its fees per payment. Without Stripe, members pay by bank transfer.

Can I switch to Selfdesk from Cobot or Excel?

Yes. You upload your member list as an Excel or CSV file, with plan, contract start and, if you like, a fixed desk. The import sends nothing yet. Then you invite people whenever you want: by email from Selfdesk or as a link you pass on yourself. Whoever accepts finds their contract ready.

Do I have to write terms or contracts myself?

No. Terms, cancellation policy and price list are created from your details. All you need are the details for your legal notice: legal name, address and email address.
