I think this is really helpful and I guess this question is about the USP. This is what I think it could be: - privacy - solo work space - change of environment = productivity + mental health benefits - community value (per WeWork, Airbnb

So I think this would be for knowledge intensive workers, who can currently work from home if they want. For businesses with big property and equipment costs I agree - you can't operate from a different location. Luckily, the biggest a

Would you be happy for people to work in your place if you were out at work all day? Lots of Airbnb hosts never meet their guests!

Really good points and we are thinking hard about those. It would inevitably be different to Airbnb in price, location and opportunity. People are increasingly looking to explore non-conventional holiday/working destinations. In some c

1) Potential to do both if you live there but work in an office, you can rent out your own desk with an Airbnb guest in a spare room. 2) I think the price point is much lower and definitely depends on a different set of criteria like WiFi s

Fair enough! Suppose this wouldn’t be for you ... would you trust people more with a peer review system like Uber / Airbnb?

Thanks for the reply - if you worked in an office / somewhere else would you ever let someone use your office space if you could make income from it?

True. I think the value is twofold. 1) The community. Like similar platforms, this could spawn a like minded community of digital nomadic workers. 2) health and productivity. In lots of knowledge intensive industries, office space is bein

Thanks for the reply. I think there is strong potential to do both accommodation and workstation renting. Especially if you are out working during the day, you could actually rent out your own desk space, rather than additional space. Esse

I think that depends on what you do as a job. For some people a one day break in a new location could be stimulating and healthy. Appreciate that for others its a different story. One way this could go is a week/two week room swap th

This was initially the idea! For students / young professionals to rent out spare rooms in their house. Especially if they are going into work or campus, they can earn a bit of extra income. This is essentially very similar and you co

This is interesting feedback. Even a kitchen table could be interesting for people without plausible alternatives. Alternatively, if you go to work in the day, you could rent out any spare desk space that you would otherwise use if you were

Wonder if annoying housemates would be evaded by peer rating systems. i.e. people who left a mess / required lots of cleaning would get a low rating and thereafter struggle to use the platform.
