Pointr and VergeSense partner on AI workplace mapping and Predictive Planning platform. August 6, 2026 As hybrid work continues to reshape office utilization, corporate real estate teams are under increasing pressure to balance space efficiency with employee experience. Static floor plans and historical occupancy reports often provide an incomplete picture, making it difficult for organizations to optimize office portfolios or anticipate changing workplace demand. Pointr has partnered with VergeSense to introduce an AI Mapping & Predictive Planning experience that combines indoor mapping with occupancy intelligence to help organizations better understand and manage their workplaces. The companies announced the launch of an interactive microsite that demonstrates how AI-powered mapping and predictive planning can support real estate decisions, improve workplace navigation and provide greater operational visibility. The joint offering brings together Pointr's AI-powered mapping technology with VergeSense's occupancy intelligence platform to create what the companies describe as a live operational model of the workplace. By integrating real-time occupancy information with intelligent digital maps, organizations can monitor how office space is being used, identify changing patterns and make data-driven decisions about future workplace investments. "Pointr's AI Mapping transforms floor plans into live, geo-referenced digital maps, while VergeSense provides Occupancy Intelligence and Predictive Planning that measures real usage and forecasts future demand," said Elo Ofodile, GTM Leader at Pointr. "Together, we're creating a live operational model of the workplace that enables organizations to make faster, smarter decisions about their real estate portfolios." The combined platform is designed to help workplace leaders visualize live occupancy across office environments, identify bottlenecks and underutilized areas, anticipate future capacity constraints and optimize office layouts based on usage data rather than assumptions. It also supports real-time wayfinding, directing employees to available desks, meeting rooms and workplace amenities while helping them avoid congested areas. Rather than relying on historical reporting, the integrated solution is intended to give organizations continuous insight into how employees move through office environments and how workspaces perform over time. That visibility enables facilities and corporate real estate teams to take a more proactive approach to workplace planning as hybrid work patterns continue to evolve. The partnership highlights three primary use cases. Live occupancy information is displayed directly on AI-powered indoor maps, providing immediate visibility into workspace utilization. Predictive planning tools help organizations identify where office layouts no longer align with employee demand and generate recommendations for rightsizing or redesigning space. Employees also benefit from real-time navigation and occupancy information that simplifies finding available workspaces and meeting areas while reducing congestion. The companies said the platform is aimed at enterprise organizations seeking to optimize office portfolios, improve workplace experiences, reduce underutilized space and support hybrid work through data-driven planning. Pointr specializes in AI-powered indoor mapping and navigation technologies for complex environments, including workplaces, healthcare facilities, airports, retail locations and large campuses. Built on more than 25 technology patents, the company's platform combines Blue Dot positioning, its MapScale(R) AI mapping engine and agentic AI capabilities. Pointr says its technology has been deployed across more than 5 billion square feet of space worldwide and serves Fortune 100 organizations. VergeSense provides workplace intelligence software for corporate real estate and workplace teams. Its Meridian Workplace AI Platform is powered by the company's Large Spatial Model, which it says has been trained on more than 250 million square feet of workplace data. The platform helps organizations analyze occupancy patterns, support portfolio rightsizing, improve workplace design and automate planning decisions using existing workplace data. By combining spatial intelligence with predictive occupancy analytics, the partnership aims to provide enterprises with a more comprehensive digital foundation for managing hybrid workplaces while supporting both operational efficiency and employee experience.

Pointr and VergeSense partner to combine AI Mapping with Predictive Planning for the future of the hybrid workplace. Aug. 6, 2026, 10:00 AM Boston, MA, Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Pointr today announced the launch of its new AI Mapping & Predictive Planning experience in partnership with VergeSense. The new interactive microsite allows workplace leaders to explore and demo how AI-powered mapping and occupancy intelligence work together to optimize office portfolios, improve employee experiences, and support data-driven workplace decisions. Pointr and Vergesense | Office Performance Forecast As hybrid work continues to reshape how offices are used, workplace leaders face two critical challenges: reducing real estate costs without impacting productivity while ensuring employees have a seamless workplace experience. Traditional workplace tools and static floor plans no longer provide the real-time intelligence organizations need to make informed decisions. Together, Pointr and VergeSense are transforming workplaces into living digital systems, where AI-powered mapping and predictive planning work together to deliver real-time visibility, predictive insights, and smarter workplace experiences. "Pointr's AI Mapping transforms floor plans into live, geo-referenced digital maps, while VergeSense provides Occupancy Intelligence and Predictive Planning that measures real usage and forecasts future demand," said Elo Ofodile, GTM Leader at Pointr. "Together, we're creating a live operational model of the workplace that enables organizations to make faster, smarter decisions about their real estate portfolios." By combining their technologies, organizations can: * Visualize live occupancy directly on intelligent digital maps. * Identify bottlenecks, underutilized areas, and changing workplace demand. * Predict when and where capacity constraints will occur. * Optimize office layouts based on data rather than assumptions. * Deliver real-time wayfinding that guides employees to available desks, meeting rooms, and workplace amenities while avoiding congestion. The combined solution helps organizations move from reactive workplace management to proactive optimization. Instead of relying on static floor plans and historical reports, workplace leaders can continuously monitor how spaces are used, understand how employees move throughout the workplace, and make informed decisions about future space planning. The partnership also enables three high-impact workplace use cases: * Occupancy + Visualization: Live occupancy data is displayed directly on AI-powered indoor maps, making bottlenecks and underutilized areas immediately visible. * Predictive Rightsizing: Organizations can understand where office layouts no longer match demand and receive data-driven recommendations to right-size space or optimize design . * Employee Experience & Wayfinding: Employees benefit from real-time space availability, predicted congestion, and intelligent navigation, creating a more responsive workplace experience. The joint solution is designed for enterprise organizations looking to: * Optimize office portfolios. * Improve employee workplace experiences. * Reduce underutilized space. * Support hybrid work with intelligent, data-driven workplace decisions. By bringing together AI Mapping and predictive planning, Pointr and VergeSense are establishing the digital infrastructure required for the next generation of intelligent workplaces, where spatial intelligence and occupancy data work together to improve operational efficiency and employee experience.
