Smarter Teams, AI-Powered Booking & Connected Workspaces
Our biggest quarter yet. Team collaboration, workspace policies, usage insights, AI-powered booking through Slack and MCP, plus four new integrations for access control and room scheduling — here's everything we've shipped.
What's New This Quarter
This quarter we focused on three themes: giving teams better visibility into how they work together, meeting teams where they already are with AI and Slack, and expanding the integrations that keep coworking spaces running smoothly. Here's what we shipped.
Team Collaboration
Coordinating team days used to mean back-and-forth messages and shared calendars. Now, when you open a space on Croissant, you'll see which teammates have already reserved a seat or booked a room there — making it easy to join colleagues or pick a different spot when you need focused time.
How It Works
- Teammate visibility — See who from your team is planning to work at a space before you book
- Natural coordination — No scheduling meetings or group chats needed, just check the space and decide
- Flexible by design — Join teammates for collaboration or choose a quieter space when you need to focus
Team collaboration helps distributed teams build a stronger in-person rhythm without the overhead of manual coordination.
Take control of your workspace program
Set policies, track usage insights, and give your team the flexibility to work from anywhere — all from one dashboard.

Team Policies
Workspace programs need guardrails. Team policies give People Operations teams full control over how their teams use Croissant — from spend limits to region restrictions to enforcement modes.
Key Capabilities
- Spend controls — Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps and layer multiple policies together
- Region restrictions — Blacklist areas around your HQ to keep the benefit focused on distributed work
- Three enforcement modes — Warn, Approval, or Block depending on your governance requirements
- Compliance reporting — Track which members are within policy and get detailed audit trails
Team Insights
Policies set the rules — insights tell you whether they're working. Team Insights gives People Operations teams the data to evaluate program ROI, justify budget, and make informed decisions about the future of their workspace strategy.
Three Dimensions of Visibility
- Usage trends — Track coworking hours and conference room bookings over time to spot adoption patterns
- Location insights — Understand where your team works, identify high-value spaces, and inform regional decisions
- Use case breakdown — See whether your program supports focus, collaboration, meetings, travel, or team gatherings
AI-Powered Booking
We're bringing Croissant to the tools your team already uses. This quarter we launched two AI-powered integrations that make workspace management faster and more accessible.
MCP Server
Croissant's Model Context Protocol (MCP) server lets AI assistants interact directly with workspace data. Search for spaces, check availability, book conference rooms, and manage reservations — all through natural language via tools like Claude. No app switching required.
Slack Integration
Croissant for Slack brings workspace management into your team's communication hub. Find nearby spaces, book conference rooms, check in, and manage your bookings without ever leaving Slack. It's included with every Croissant plan at no extra cost.
Connected Workspaces
A great workspace experience goes beyond booking — it extends to how members enter the building and how operators manage their rooms. This quarter, we shipped four new integrations that connect Croissant directly to access control and booking management platforms.
Access Control
- KISI — Members with active bookings unlock doors directly from the Croissant app, eliminating key cards and fobs
- Salto KS — Electronic lock integration with time-limited access credentials that activate automatically at check-in
Booking Systems
- OfficeRnD — Conference room availability syncs in real time between OfficeRnD and Croissant, with full booking details in both systems
- Google Calendar — Bookings appear as calendar events, availability is read directly from Google Calendar, and one account covers all your rooms
What's Coming Next
We're continuing to invest in making Croissant the best platform for hybrid teams and coworking operators. Here's what's on the roadmap:
- Vendor consolidation — manage all your workspace providers in one place
- Spend management — deeper visibility and control over workspace budgets
- Multi-role access — granular permissions for admins, managers, and team leads
- Fractional offices — dedicated space on the days your team needs it
Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, we'd love to hear your feedback on these new features.
