Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Occupancy Benchmark?
It’s a tool that compares how your buildings are used versus similar ones on the market. It gives you clarity on where space is overused, underused, or just right.
How is occupancy data collected?
We use data from sensors, access control systems, Wi-Fi, and other sources already present in your buildings. No extra hardware is needed.
How often is the benchmark updated?
The benchmark is refreshed every month and includes access to up to two years of historical data.
Is the data anonymous?
Yes. Your data is anonymized and aggregated before being compared with others.
Can I use this benchmark for ESG reporting?
Definitely. Occupancy is directly linked to energy use and efficiency — key elements of ESG reporting.
Which types of buildings can be benchmarked?
Our platform supports office buildings, mixed-use commercial spaces, and corporate real estate portfolios across multiple regions and asset types.
Do I need additional hardware to use the benchmark?
No. If you already collect occupancy data through existing systems (e.g. access control, Wi-Fi, or sensors), we can integrate with those. No additional hardware is required.
How do I get access to my benchmark report?
Just register on this page. We’ll send you a personalized benchmark report with key insights for your portfolio.
How does Benchmark use Artificial Intelligence (AI) in real estate performance analysis?
Benchmark uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyze large volumes of real estate data, including energy consumption, occupancy patterns, and operational metrics. By applying machine learning algorithms, the platform identifies trends, predicts performance issues, and provides smart recommendations for improving efficiency. This AI-powered approach helps asset managers make data-driven decisions faster and with greater accuracy.
What is the Benchmark "barometer" and how does it support real estate asset managers?
The Benchmark barometer is a visual scoring system that evaluates and compares the performance of real estate assets across key indicators like energy efficiency, occupancy, and environmental impact. It acts as a real-time performance meter, helping asset managers understand how each property stands in relation to similar assets. This barometer makes it easier to identify improvement opportunities and set measurable goals.
