Setting Up Your Workspace

A step-by-step guide to configuring your workspace, adding locations, and customizing your settings.

Last updated March 2, 2026

Create your workspace

When you first sign up, you'll be prompted to create a workspace. Your workspace is the top-level container for your entire operation. Give it a name (e.g., "Hive Coworking") and choose a URL slug that will become your subdomain.

Add your first location

A workspace can have multiple locations. Each location represents a physical space with its own members, assets, and settings. Click "Add Location" and fill in the basics: name, address, timezone, and operating hours.

Configure your settings

Head to Settings to customize your workspace:

  • Branding — Upload your logo, set your brand colors, and customize the member portal
  • Billing — Connect your Stripe account to start accepting payments
  • Access Control — Set up Kisi or Unifi integration for door access
  • Notifications — Configure email and SMS notification preferences

Invite your team

Add other operators and admins to your workspace. Go to Settings → Staff and invite team members by email. You can assign them roles like Workspace Admin or Location Admin to control their access level.
