What is Skedda?

Skedda is pushing workplace booking data out of its own UI — into tables, insights and now an API.

Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it already collects visible and usable. Occupancy Insights, the multi-venue Organization Hub and richer visit exports added reporting; a read-only API beta opened the data to outside tools. The newest release redesigns the Visits page so visitor status and custom check-in answers show up inline instead of only in exports.

What is Twake Drive?

Twake Drive is turning its file picker into a reusable component other apps can embed.

Twake Drive ships beta releases every few weeks. Most of the work goes into the embeddable File Picker: single-selection mode, thumbnail links, themes, double-click pick and ready-state messages. Alongside it come reusable file-type and date filters and federated-sharing fixes. It has also been cutting features, removing encrypted-file support and the Harvest integration.

Skedda vs Twake Drive: editorial side-by-side

Skedda is pushing workplace booking data out of its own UI — into tables, insights and now an API.

◆ Current state

Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it already collects visible and usable. Occupancy Insights, the multi-venue Organization Hub and richer visit exports added reporting; a read-only API beta opened the data to outside tools. The newest release redesigns the Visits page so visitor status and custom check-in answers show up inline instead of only in exports.

◆ Where it's heading

Skedda is shifting from a booking front-end to a source of workplace attendance and visitor data. Each recent release removes an export step, either by surfacing the data in the app or by exposing it programmatically. Visitor management is getting steady attention alongside desk and room booking.

◆ Prediction

The API is likely to widen beyond read-only bookings, probably to occupancy or visitor data, since Skedda said more capabilities are planned. Expect more visitor-management work to follow the Visits redesign.

T5.0

Twake Drive is turning its file picker into a reusable component other apps can embed.

◆ Current state

Twake Drive ships beta releases every few weeks. Most of the work goes into the embeddable File Picker: single-selection mode, thumbnail links, themes, double-click pick and ready-state messages. Alongside it come reusable file-type and date filters and federated-sharing fixes. It has also been cutting features, removing encrypted-file support and the Harvest integration.

◆ Where it's heading

The focus is making Drive a file layer other apps call through the picker, while simplifying the core by removing lesser-used features. Patch betas like 1.107.1 fix layout details.

◆ Prediction

Expect 1.107 to stabilize and further picker and filter work in 1.108; more feature removals are plausible given the recent pattern.
