Getting Started

Onboarding, first workspace, and what it takes to be productive on day one.

7
What is WURKSPACE?

WURKSPACE is The Workplace Platform — a single connected workspace where organisations plan, procure, execute, close out and continuously improve workplace projects. Knowledge, inspiration, verified suppliers, AI guidance and project delivery all live in the same place, so a workplace project no longer lives across ten inboxes and five spreadsheets.

Who is WURKSPACE for?

WURKSPACE is built first for Corporate Buyers — the Admin Heads, Facility Managers, CFOs, CEOs, Procurement, HR and IT leaders who own workplace outcomes. It also serves the Workplace Experts (architects, PMCs, designers, consultants) and Solution Providers (suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, contractors) who deliver those workplaces.

How do I create my first workspace?

Sign up, name your workspace, invite your team, and create your first workplace project from the dashboard. It takes under an hour end-to-end — no procurement cycle, no IT ticket, no data-migration project required to try it.

How long does it take to get started?

First workspace: minutes. First real workplace project modelled with team members, drawings, approvals and vendors: typically one to three working days. Larger multi-location rollouts move faster with a guided setup — talk to the team and we'll help you scope it.

Can I try WURKSPACE for free?

Yes. The free plan is enough to create a workspace, invite your core team and run your first workplace project — planning, documents, and basic collaboration. Paid tiers unlock more members, more projects, deeper AI, and enterprise controls.

Do I need training?

No formal training is required. The interface is designed for busy corporate teams, not for full-time operators. If you can use Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, you can use WURKSPACE. Enterprise onboarding is available if you want a guided rollout.

Can I invite my team later?

Yes. Start alone, invite finance, procurement, IT, HR and your external partners as the project grows. Every invitation carries a role — Owner, Admin, Member, Reviewer, Vendor — with the right visibility.

Features & Capabilities

What you can do inside WURKSPACE today — planning, documents, approvals, presentations, collaboration.

14
What can I do in WURKSPACE today?

Plan workplace projects with budgets and timelines; store drawings, BOQs, quotes and approvals in one place; collaborate with internal teams and external experts; compare suppliers; build moodboards and presentations; capture site visits and communications; and close out projects with an audited handover.

What planning tools are included?

Project planning, budget planning, execution planning, risk management and change management — each with practitioner-built templates that reflect how real workplace projects run, not generic PM checklists.

Can I manage multiple workplace projects?

Yes. A workspace holds many projects — HQ renovation, a new campus, a Tier-2 office rollout, an annual maintenance programme — each with its own team, documents, budgets and approvals, and a portfolio view across all of them.

Can I store drawings, BOQs and project documents?

Yes. Drawings, BOQs, quotes, contracts, RFIs, approvals, meeting minutes and warranties all live in the project workspace with versioning, permissions and audit trails.

Does WURKSPACE support approvals?

Yes. Structured approval flows for budgets, vendors, drawings, change orders, invoices and closeout — with a clear record of who approved what, when, and why.

Can I collaborate with architects, PMCs and contractors?

Yes. Invite external experts and vendors as guests scoped to specific projects. They contribute drawings, quotes, updates and approvals inside your workspace instead of over email — but you keep full control of what they see.

Can I create presentations?

Yes. Assemble presentations from your own project data, moodboards, supplier comparisons and AI-generated summaries — for boards, CFOs, or client reviews — without exporting to PowerPoint.

Can I compare suppliers side-by-side?

Yes. Compare shortlisted suppliers on price, delivery, credentials, past project performance and Marketplace signals — with the working notes preserved on the project record.

Related reading
Can I build moodboards?

Yes. Moodboards live inside the project alongside drawings, budgets and vendor shortlists — so a design idea always stays connected to its cost, timeline and supplier context.

Does WURKSPACE support AI?

Yes. Workplace Advisor and other AI features assist with planning, benchmarking, supplier comparison, document summaries and drafting communications. AI is a co-pilot — every recommendation stays traceable and reviewable.

Can I manage multiple office locations?

Yes. Track a portfolio of offices, campuses or retail sites — each with its own projects, budgets and stakeholders — and a rolled-up view for leadership.

What industries is WURKSPACE suitable for?

Any organisation that owns physical workplace: corporate offices, schools, universities, hospitals and clinics, retail networks, industrial offices, hospitality, government departments, research institutions and professional-services firms.

Can multiple organisations collaborate on the same project?

Yes. Cross-organisation collaboration is a first-class idea — a Corporate Buyer's workspace can host their architect's firm, their PMC, their contractor and their manufacturer, each with their own scoped access, and each keeping their own data.

Can I start with one office and expand later?

Yes. Start with a single office or a single project. Add locations, projects and teams as you go — the platform is priced to scale with you, not to make you commit to a full estate on day one.

Compared to Alternatives

How WURKSPACE differs from Excel, ERP systems, Microsoft Project, Notion and WhatsApp.

6
Why not just use Excel, email and WhatsApp?

Because a workplace project isn't a spreadsheet — it's a decision chain. Today, that chain sits across Excel (budgets), emails (approvals), WhatsApp (updates), drawings on WeTransfer, quotes as PDFs and site photos on phones. Everything is disconnected. When something goes wrong, no one can reconstruct why. WURKSPACE keeps the decisions, documents, communications and approvals of one project in one place — so the chain is auditable, searchable and handover-ready.

Related reading
How is WURKSPACE different from an ERP (SAP, Oracle, MS Dynamics)?

ERPs run transactions — finance, inventory, HR, procurement records. They are excellent at accounting for what has already been decided. WURKSPACE is where decisions get made — planning, knowledge, collaboration, marketplace intelligence, project delivery and closeout. WURKSPACE feeds the ERP with cleaner, better-decided workplace projects; the ERP still books the transactions.

How is it different from Microsoft Project, Monday, Asana, ClickUp or Notion?

Those are generic task and project trackers. WURKSPACE is domain-specific for workplace projects — with practitioner-built templates for budgets, BOQs, approvals, snags, PC lists, retention, DLP and closeout, plus a Marketplace of vetted suppliers and a knowledge layer covering materials, benchmarks and workplace research. You don't have to invent the columns.

Can WURKSPACE replace WhatsApp?

No — and it shouldn't try. WhatsApp is where humans talk. WURKSPACE complements it: important communication (approvals, RFIs, decisions, site notes) becomes structured on the project record, while informal chat stays where it is. Communication Intelligence auto-links relevant WhatsApp threads, emails and meetings to the correct project.

Can I keep using my own vendors and consultants?

Absolutely. Your existing architects, PMCs, contractors and suppliers can be invited to your workspace as external members. The WURKSPACE Marketplace is an option — not a requirement.

Is the Marketplace compulsory?

No. The Marketplace helps you discover, compare and shortlist suppliers when you want to — but you can run every project entirely on your own panel of vendors.

For Corporate Buyers

Admin Heads, CFOs, CEOs, Procurement, HR and IT — who WURKSPACE is really built for.

8
Why is WURKSPACE built for Corporate Buyers first?

Because they own the outcome — the budget, the timeline, the risk, the employee experience — but the tooling has always been built for the experts they hire, not for them. WURKSPACE is the first workplace platform designed around the Corporate Buyer's decision chain, and every other role (expert, supplier) plugs into it.

How does it help Admin Heads?

One dashboard for every workplace project — what needs attention today, what approvals are pending, which vendors are delayed, which sites are at risk this week. The Morning Test: an Admin Head can answer 'what needs my attention' in under a minute.

How does it help Facility Managers?

Site visits, snags, PC lists, warranties, retention, DLP and vendor performance history — all connected to the projects those workplaces were originally delivered under, so nothing is orphaned when the project team disbands.

Can CFOs monitor workplace budgets?

Yes. CFOs get real-time visibility of committed vs approved vs spent across every workplace project — with variance flags, approval trails and forecast-to-complete on every line item.

Can CEOs get executive dashboards?

Yes. A portfolio view across every workplace initiative — status, spend, risk, employee-experience impact — without asking the admin team for a monthly PowerPoint.

Can Procurement teams manage RFQs?

Yes. Structured RFQs, supplier shortlisting, comparison, negotiation notes and PO tracking — with an audit trail that satisfies internal audit and the CFO.

Can HR manage workplace projects?

Yes. HR often owns hybrid rollouts, town-hall spaces, wellness rooms and workplace change communication. WURKSPACE gives HR a first-class seat at the workplace project table.

Can IT teams participate?

Yes. IT contributes on network, cabling, AV, security systems, meeting-room technology and cutover planning — inside the same project workspace as design and construction, so no critical dependency gets missed.

For Workplace Experts

Architects, PMCs, designers and consultants working with corporate clients.

5
Can architects use WURKSPACE?

Yes. Architects can be invited by their corporate clients into project workspaces, or run their own workspace to serve multiple clients. Drawings, moodboards, RFIs and approvals stay structured — no more emailing revision 47 of a plan.

Can PMCs collaborate on projects?

Yes. PMCs plug into their client's workspace with a scoped role — running programme, quality, safety and closeout — while the client keeps ownership of the data.

Can consultants create presentations for clients?

Yes. Consultants can build client-ready presentations directly from their project data — feasibility, options analysis, cost benchmarks — without leaving the workspace.

Can designers upload moodboards and materials?

Yes. Designers can build moodboards, tag them to spaces on the drawing, and connect each material to a supplier and a cost line — so a design idea always carries its budget context.

Can experts invite their corporate clients?

Yes. Experts can invite clients into structured project workspaces they run — a professional alternative to Dropbox links and email threads.

Suppliers & Manufacturers

How suppliers, manufacturers and distributors participate in the Marketplace.

7
Can suppliers join WURKSPACE?

Yes. Suppliers create a profile, publish credentials and past projects, and become discoverable by Corporate Buyers looking for a specific capability, category or geography.

Do manufacturers get product pages?

Yes. Manufacturers can publish product families with specifications, certifications, finishes and images — surfaced through the Materials directory and to Corporate Buyers via Habitat recommendations.

Related reading
How do RFQs work for suppliers?

Corporate Buyers issue structured RFQs to a shortlist. Suppliers respond in-platform with pricing, delivery and clarifications. All correspondence stays on the RFQ record so both sides have the same source of truth.

Is Marketplace free for suppliers?

There is a free tier so suppliers can list credentials and be discovered. Paid tiers unlock lead access, richer product pages, analytics and enterprise controls. See the Pricing page for the current commercial terms.

Related reading
How are leads allocated to suppliers?

Leads are shared based on fit — capability, category, geography, credentials and past performance — not on who paid the most. Corporate Buyers control which suppliers they engage; WURKSPACE never sells a lead in the dark.

Can suppliers upload catalogues?

Yes. Product catalogues, technical datasheets and installation guides all live on the supplier profile and can be attached to RFQ responses in one click.

Can distributors and channel partners join?

Yes. Distributors, dealers and regional channel partners can list under the manufacturers they represent — with geography, warranty and service scope clearly declared.

AI & Workplace Advisor

How WURKSPACE uses AI — and what it does not do with your data.

7
What is Workplace Advisor?

Workplace Advisor is WURKSPACE's AI co-pilot for corporate teams — trained on the platform's practitioner knowledge base to answer questions like 'is my per-seat cost reasonable', 'what should I ask this vendor', or 'what's missing from my closeout checklist'.

How does AI help planning?

Habitat suggests project structure, budget lines and timelines based on your project type, size and city — using benchmarks from Habitat's 17+ years of practitioner data. You always edit and approve; Habitat never commits on your behalf.

Does AI recommend materials?

Yes. Given your budget band, aesthetic direction and functional requirement, Habitat suggests material families and specific products from vetted manufacturers — with a rationale you can share with your architect.

Can AI compare suppliers?

Yes. AI produces side-by-side comparisons on price, credentials, past project fit, delivery windows and warranty — as a starting point for your team's decision, not as a verdict.

Can AI summarise documents and communications?

Yes. AI summarises long email threads, meeting minutes, RFIs, drawings and supplier proposals into what changed, what's decided, and what needs attention — with citations back to the source.

Does AI replace consultants?

No. AI removes drudgery — first drafts, comparisons, summaries, search — so consultants and internal teams spend their time on judgement. Complex renovation, change management and negotiation still need human experts, and WURKSPACE helps you find and work with them.

Does AI learn from my projects?

AI features learn from anonymised, aggregated patterns to improve platform-wide benchmarks — never by exposing your project content to other customers. Content you upload is not used to train third-party foundation models.

Security & Privacy

Where data lives, who can see it, and what happens if you leave.

9
Where is my data stored?

Workspace data is stored on managed cloud infrastructure with region controls, encrypted in transit and at rest. The Trust Centre publishes the current hosting region, sub-processors and certifications.

Related reading
Is my data encrypted?

Yes. Encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest across databases, object storage and backups. Sensitive fields have additional application-level protection. Details live in the Trust Centre.

Related reading
Can Habitat access my projects?

No. Content is private by default. Habitat, WURKSPACE staff and super-admins do not have blanket access to workspace content — access requires an explicit, time-bound, logged admin override that the workspace owner is notified about.

Related reading
Does AI train on my data?

No. Workspace content is not used to train third-party foundation models. AI features send only the prompt and the minimum necessary context to vetted model providers, under contractual no-training terms.

Who owns the files I upload?

You do. Uploaded content remains the customer's property. WURKSPACE holds only the operating rights necessary to run the service you've asked it to run.

Can I delete my data?

Yes. Workspace owners can delete individual projects and documents, and can request full workspace deletion. Deletion timelines and backup retention are published in the Trust Centre.

Can I export everything?

Yes. Projects, documents, decisions, approvals and communications can be exported at any time — so leaving is always a one-click option, not a hostage negotiation.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

Your workspace enters a read-only grace period during which you can export everything. After the grace window, data is scheduled for deletion per the published retention policy. Nothing is retained indefinitely without your consent.

Can I keep my data private from other workspaces?

Yes. Every workspace is fully isolated. Content is private by default — only invited members with explicit roles can access it, and inter-workspace sharing is always opt-in and per-item.

Pricing & Billing

How pricing works. Current numbers, plans, tax and enterprise terms live on the Pricing page.

10
How does WURKSPACE pricing work?

There's a free plan for small teams and first projects, and paid tiers that scale with members, projects, AI usage, storage and enterprise controls. Current plans, prices, AI credits and storage limits live on the Pricing page — that is always the source of truth.

Are annual discounts available?

Yes. Annual billing is offered at a discount to the monthly rate on paid tiers. Current discount levels are shown on the Pricing page.

Related reading
Do you offer enterprise pricing?

Yes. Enterprise pricing is available for organisations that need SSO, custom roles, dedicated onboarding, procurement paperwork, DPAs, custom data-residency and volume terms. Contact the Sales team to scope your requirement.

Is GST included? Will I get a tax invoice?

Pricing shown on the website is inclusive of applicable taxes unless the Pricing page states otherwise. A GST-compliant tax invoice is issued automatically after every successful payment. Add your GSTIN and business name at checkout to claim input tax credit.

Related reading
How are team members counted?

Team members are counted per active seat in your workspace. External guests (client-invited experts and vendors) are handled separately — see the Pricing page for the current definition of member vs guest.

How much storage do I get?

Storage allowances vary by plan and are published on the Pricing page so they stay current. Additional storage packs are available on paid tiers.

Related reading
How do AI credits work?

AI features consume credits scaled to how much AI work you actually use. Every paid plan includes a monthly AI credit allowance, with top-ups on paid tiers. Current allowances, top-up rates and enterprise terms live on the Pricing page.

Related reading
How do I upgrade my plan?

From Settings → Billing. Upgrades take effect immediately with pro-rated billing. Your workspace, projects and data carry over untouched.

How do I cancel or downgrade?

Cancel or downgrade from Settings → Billing at any time. Downgrades take effect at the next renewal; cancellation stops further charges immediately and the workspace stays on the current plan until the paid period ends.

What's your refund and cancellation policy?

Full terms are on the Refund & Cancellation page. Summary: you can cancel any time; unused annual periods are eligible for pro-rated refund per the published policy.

Habitat Design & Arts

The founding organisation behind WURKSPACE — and why WURKSPACE is independent.

6
What is Habitat Design & Arts?

Habitat Design & Arts Pvt. Ltd. is a Noida-based commercial interior design and build firm founded in 2009, with 17+ years and 1,000+ delivered workplace projects across corporate, educational and institutional clients. Habitat is the founding organisation behind WURKSPACE.

Why did Habitat create WURKSPACE?

Because after 1,000+ projects, the pattern was obvious: every corporate workplace project fails in the same places — planning, communication, procurement, approvals, closeout. Excel + email + WhatsApp couldn't fix it. So Habitat built the operating system it wished had existed — and opened it to the industry.

Related reading
Is WURKSPACE independent of Habitat?

Yes. WURKSPACE is an independent product serving organisations of every kind. Habitat is the founding organisation, but the platform is not restricted to Habitat clients, does not steer projects toward Habitat, and does not share workspace data with Habitat.

Can non-Habitat clients use WURKSPACE?

Absolutely. The overwhelming majority of WURKSPACE customers will never be Habitat clients — and that's the design. Corporate Buyers can use the platform with their existing architects, PMCs, contractors and suppliers.

Do I need Habitat to use WURKSPACE?

No. WURKSPACE stands entirely on its own. Habitat is one supplier of design-build services in the wider ecosystem, not a gatekeeper to the platform.

Can I still hire Habitat for a project?

Yes, if that's useful to you. Habitat continues to deliver corporate interior renovation and build projects independently of WURKSPACE. Reach out through habitatdelhi.com.

What features are coming next?

The current sprint order — locked and public — is Project Control Center, Communication Intelligence, Commercial Workspace, Project Closeout, Supplier Portal and Expert Workspace. Full detail (with dates as they firm up) lives on the Roadmap page.

Related reading
What is Material Intelligence?

A structured knowledge layer of materials, finishes, systems and their real-world cost, performance and installation behaviour — surfaced inside planning, moodboards and RFQs.

What is the Manufacturer Portal?

A dedicated workspace for manufacturers to publish products, certifications, warranty terms and channel partners — and to see anonymised demand signals from Corporate Buyers.

What is the Supplier Portal?

A dedicated workspace for contractors, vendors and service suppliers to receive RFQs, manage deliveries, track POs and maintain performance history that follows them across projects.

Will WURKSPACE publish benchmarks?

Yes. Anonymised, aggregated benchmarks on cost per sq. ft., project duration, vendor performance and category pricing — so Corporate Buyers can sanity-check their own projects against the market.

Are AI agents on the roadmap?

Yes. Task-specific AI agents — RFQ drafter, budget checker, closeout auditor, meeting-notes agent — with human approval for anything that leaves the workspace.

Will there be mobile apps?

Yes. Native mobile apps for site walks, snag capture, approvals and quick updates are on the roadmap. The web app is already responsive and usable on tablets.

The FAQ answers the questions we hear most often. If your organisation has a specific requirement — SSO, data residency, procurement paperwork, enterprise rollout — a 30-minute call is usually faster than a comparison sheet.
