Automations

Whether it’s upselling services, reaching out to leads, or streamlining member feedback – our new pricing model allows you to automate up to 1,000 actions every month for free, transforming how you run your coworking space.

Yes, you read that right. We’re introducing a new pricing model that gives users access to up to 1,000 automated actions free every month.

That’s 1,000 opportunities to automatically upsell a service, reach out to a lead, or collect feedback from members all at no additional cost.

It’s a radical step that helps create the future we believe in, one where coworking space operations run themselves so you can run your business. 

But first, a recap

At the end of June, the Optix team unveiled Automations, an operational layer that sits on top of the Optix platform and allows users to automate tedious, repetitive, manual tasks including email and message reminders, invoice follow-ups, upselling and cross-selling, and more.

Automations helps operators:

  • Save time by automating recurring manual tasks, with clients taking back 53% of their time each week on average.
  • Improve operational efficiency by doing more of your work with less resources, less time, and less stress.
  • Elevate the experience of both your team and your members by transforming the work experience from cumbersome tasks to community building. 

Check out the replay of our Level Up event below where we explained what Automations is and why it’s going to completely change the world of coworking.

So why now?

The demand for Automations has been nothing short of incredible—owners and operators everywhere are seeing that automation isn’t just the future of coworking, it’s the key to thriving in it.

After countless conversations with clients and non-clients alike, it became clear that we needed to make Automations more accessible to more operators: once people experienced the power of Automations firsthand, they didn’t just see the potential—they believed in it!

A technology this transformative shouldn’t be kept behind closed doors. That’s why we are introducing a model that opens Automations to everyone: so we can change (for the better!) how coworking businesses run—one automation at a time.

Just look at KWENCH

Like so many coworking operators, the KWENCH team was struggling with manual, clunky processes. They relied heavily on human resources to execute internal processes and keep track of what needed to be done, a daunting task for their member services team.

In just 60 days, the KWENCH team set up over 30 automations (and counting), helping them automate over 2,500 additional actions that would have otherwise been completed manually, for a total of over 5,000 automated actions in Optix.

They were able to use Automations to streamline all of the recurring tasks the member experience team was performing manually, from onboarding new members, following up with day pass users, to adjusting users’ account types and statuses in Optix. 

Now they can reinvest that time into connecting with the community and making a bigger impact on their members.

“One of the greatest benefits of Automations for KWENCH is streamlining all of our processes for our front desk staff, then being able to utilize that time to connect with our community.”
