VergeSense + Pointr: What Happens When AI Mapping Meets Occupancy Intelligence

Partnerships

Pre-pandemic, offices were static: predictable schedules, fixed seating, stable meeting room demand. Hybrid work changed that. Employees come less often, their patterns shift weekly. And the “one desk, one person” paradigm evaporated practically overnight.

Workplace leaders now face two imperatives:

Optimize cost and footprint: eliminate under-utilized space without hurting productivity
Elevate experience: ensure that when employees do come in, the workplace actually works for them

Legacy tools can’t solve that. Static PDFs and gut instincts won’t keep up with hybrid complexity. To thrive, workplaces must become living digital systems, where AI Mapping and Occupancy Intelligence work as one.

Before → After: What AI Changes

Employee Experience

Before	After
Employee frustration	Employee experience powered by occupancy intelligence + Smart wayfinding
“I can’t find a desk. The office feels full, even though no one’s here.”	“Wayfinding shows real-time availability and predicts congestion between 10am–12pm. I’m guided to calmer neighborhoods before it gets busy.”

With Pointr’s AI Mapping, floor plans become live, geo-referenced maps. With VergeSense occupancy intelligence, those maps reflect real usage and future demand instead of unreliable guesses. Together, Pointr and VergeSense enable the workplace to become responsive rather than reactive.

Planning & Design Decisions

Guess-driven planning

AI-driven design scoring

"Let’s add more desks. It feels like we’re running out of space.”

"Our Predictive Planning product outputs show the office is only 20% utilized but breaks at 120 people because room sizes are mismatched. Remove 5 desks, add 4 collaboration rooms, and congestion drops by 30%.”

Floor Plans & Data Accuracy

Static PDFs and outdated drawings	AI Mapping as infrastructure
“We’ll update the floor plan once the remodel is done.”	“The AI Mapping platform gives us a live workplace model. Occupancy, circulation, and predicted usage can all render instantly, no manual updates, no guesswork.”

Portfolio Management

Before	After
Reactive management	Proactive optimization
“We have too many meeting rooms.”	“The Predictive Planning product shows this neighborhood will be underutilized by 40% by Q3; meanwhile the adjacent zone will see demand grow 25%. Let’s rebalance now.”

Rethinking the Hybrid Workplace with AI Mapping and Occupancy Intelligence

For years, mapping and occupancy lived in silos. Now they are becoming inseparable.

Pointr provides AI Mapping which transforms floor plans into digitized, geo-referenced spatial models. VergeSense brings Occupancy Intelligence and their new Predictive Planning product, measuring real usage and predicting what space will need next. Together, they create something the workplace has never had before: a live operational model of the office.

You can see how people move, where friction appears, which rooms work, and how demand is shifting. Furthermore, predictive models can answer the questions that matter:

When will this space break?
Where are we wasting rooms or seats?
What design changes will create the biggest impact?
How do we right-size without hurting experience?

Three High-Impact Use Cases

Occupancy + Visualization
Live usage flows directly into the AI map, revealing bottlenecks and empty zones at a glance.
Predictive Rightsizing
“Our office is designed for 200 but breaks at 120. Reallocate 5 desk zones into 4 meeting rooms.”
Employee Experience & Wayfinding
Employees see real-time availability, predicted congestion, and dynamic routes. The workplace becomes responsive, not static.

Who This Is For

Fortune 2000 workplace & CRE leaders
Heads of Workplace Experience
Corporate Real Estate & Facilities teams

If your goals are to:

Right-size offices
Make hybrid work actually work
Reduce wasted space without hurting experience

This is the infrastructure you need.

Unified spatial + occupancy intelligence isn’t a feature, it’s the foundation of the modern workplace. That’s why the VergeSense + Pointr partnership matters. Together, we’re building the infrastructure today that tomorrow’s workplaces won’t be able to operate without.
