Embrava Customer Survey
Why it lands

A desk that knows your name is a desk you actually want to come back to.

Workplace anxiety in 2026 isn't about the commute — it's about not knowing where you'll sit, who you'll see, or whether your team is even in. Desk Sign turns the floor from a parking lot into a neighborhood.

How it works

Tap. Book. Release. Repeat.

01

Walk up.

Tap your badge or phone on the panel's NFC target. The desk knows who you are in under 200ms.

02

Claim it.

The display shows your name, your booking window, and the time it auto-releases. No app, no QR scan.

03

Step away.

Coffee, lunch, a meeting — your space is held even when you leave or step away.

04

Free for the next.

Check out of the desk and the next person walks up and starts again. The calendar updates instantly.

3M adhesive strip

Industrial-grade, removable. Holds on glass, metal, laminate, painted wood. Default for most rollouts, clean look, no drilling.

02
Magnetic

Steel plate base

Adhesive plate goes on the desk; the panel snaps on. Pop it off for cleaning, conferences, or moves. Best for hot-desk neighborhoods.

03
Weighted

Free-standing

Weighted aluminum base. No adhesive, no install. Perfect for executive desks, coworking, or pilots before you commit to a layout.
