What is Kahu?
Kahu is a suite of smart technology products that will help you create a flexible, modern workplace. We believe all your workplace systems should work as one. The Kahu Smart Workplace solution unifies key technology touchpoints to create a seamless office experience.
It is made up of five different components which work in tandem to provide a seamless smart workplace solution which delivers a stress-free, intuitive experience for those who manage, use and visit your workspace.
- Workplace App – which allows you to manage people and resources.
- Booking Kiosk – enables you to book resources, such as rooms and desks.
- Booking Panel – this shows whether a room is booked or in-use.
- Desk Controller – Kahu’s Desk Controller can monitor occupancy, enable power control and more.
- User App – allows users to pre-book resources.

Enhanced Data
Kahu can provide optimisation and utilisation reporting of different workspaces, all of which can be seen in easily digestible formats via Kahu’s management dashboard. Utilisation can be monitored hourly, daily or over any period of time to highlight peak, average and low usage points, providing the richest picture possible for usage of your space.
Kahu’s desk controllers provide accurate, easy to understand and useful data which enables you to make key decisions when looking to adapt and enhance your workspace.

Seamless Integration
Kahu’s integrations with software such as Azure AD and Microsoft 365 helps deliver the best user experience possible for your users.
By using Kahu, calendars and communications are updated automatically, so you can always see which desks and rooms are booked at the touch of a button. Access control integration also allows users to enter the building and check into their desks or room all using the same single system and access card.

Outstanding User Experience
Kahu’s interface is simple to use, easy to understand and can deliver a hassle-free experience for those managing and visiting your buildings every day.
It’s simple and stylish interface and integration with key software allows for fast adoption and easy onboarding for users.
The interface is also white labelled, meaning you can adapt the branding to your companies needs to fit seamlessly within your working environment.

Operational Technology Identity and Access Management
Kahu offers operational technology identity and access management, which gives managers and administrators of buildings total control to giving users access to different parts of the building and its systems. This means private parts of a building or information can be kept secure at all times.
