Robin Powered updates robinpowered.com

Feature

Data, if used thoughtfully and consistently, can have a real impact on people engaging with the office and one another. A variety of workplace analytics can send you the signals 📶 you need to make changes that have an actual, ongoing influence on workplace experiences.

However: Insights about the workplace (utilization rates, HR information, productivity and sales #️⃣s) often live in individual platforms, making this disparate data challenging to interpret.

That’s exactly why we just released a new Analytics API, so workplace leaders can bring data together in their preferred business intelligence tool for a more holistic view of the workplace 📊

Robin customers can now:

• Set up, schedule and automate reports that support organizational goals

• Build custom dashboards within their preferred BI tool

• Easily share insights with leadership, supporting decisions around hybrid strategy

You may notice that Robin's homepage looks a bit different – we’ve brought all of our collaboration, activity and scheduling capabilities front-and-center. Why? Simple: The workplace is about people 👥 and we want to make it as easy as possible for you to navigate the workday.

This change helps you more easily complete the tasks you need to in order to have a successful in-office experience, like scheduling an in-person 1:1 with your manager or lunch with a coworker who is also in that week. Looking for a room or work area 🖥️ to support your day? You can still easily access those resources, too.

Here’s what to expect when you go to Robin:

• Easily see who’s in when and what workplace activities are taking place
• Book a recommended desk based on previous reservations
• See company announcements and respond to experience surveys

Let's say you hosted a series of workshops a couple weeks ago at your HQ. They were led by outside consultants, and attended by various employees. Plus, you had food delivered and special AV equipment set up.

Phew. That's a lot of visitors! We've heard from customers how important it is to keep a record of who comes and goes, which is why Robin customers using visitor management can now export visitors logs.

Robin admins can now easily download a record of who was there, including the visitor and host information, type of visit, check-in/check-out times, and more.

Knowing who’s going to be in the office makes a big difference when deciding whether to make the commute.

• Easily see who plans to go into the office from inside of Slack 👀

• Understand who is planning to be in the office without leaving the tool they already use 📅

You go into the office every couple of weeks, and always book the same desk. It’s your favorite. It’s close to the snacks 🍿 It has a great view 🪟 We get that.

Robin just made it easier to snag that same desk whenever you make a trip into the office.

Now, when you log into Robin and want to book a desk, you can do so from within the work week view! We’ll let you know if the desk you used last time is available if you want to use it again. If not, no worries - you can book a different one from the same window.

Go ahead - book that desk before it’s gone

Feature

Activities help people come together around common interests and connect with one another in meaningful ways. So far, we’ve seen Robin customers host bring your dog 🐶 to work days, company lunches 🥪 and spooky soirees 🎃 – all of which anyone can join.

All Robin users and admins can now view and join Activities in Robin directly from the mobile app. This makes activity planning even simpler and more seamless.

Go ahead and try it out in the mobile app. Choose your title, date and audience to get started. Happy planning!
