Faster space planning
Workplace maps and space planning have been slow, manual and hard to keep up to date. Teams change office layouts, manage moves and adapt spaces more often, so keeping maps accurate is a major challenge.
Robin’s latest releases make maps and space planning faster and easier to maintain, from creating maps directly from CAD files to editing layouts directly in Robin. These updates are part of Robin's wider work to help teams manage workplace changes with less manual work and more flexibility.

Upload CAD files to create workplace maps in seconds
Building workplace maps used to mean manual work, external software and often starting over.
Teams can now import .dxf files directly into Robin's CAD uploader and create maps in seconds. Robin detects the relevant layers automatically. Admins choose what to include, such as walls and structural elements, before they finish the map.
Work that took days now takes minutes, so it is much easier to keep maps current.
Try it out: When you create a new floor, upload a CAD file to create a map in Robin.
Edit maps directly in Robin with the new map editor
Keeping a map accurate as your workplace changes has been as hard as building one.
With the new map editor, admins can adjust walls, refine layouts and clean up imported files directly in Robin, with no external software. For bigger changes, you can upload new CAD files onto existing maps. Desks, spaces and resources stay in place, so you do not rebuild anything from scratch.
Try it out: Use the map editor to refine layouts and keep your workplace maps up to date. To learn more, contact your CSM or support@robinpowered.com.
Connect Robin's visitor management with your workplace systems
Many workplaces use several systems to manage visitors, from lobby kiosks to badge access and internal apps. The new Visitor API gives teams more ways to connect those systems with Robin.
With the Visitor API, customers can now:
- Send guest lists to lobby systems before visits.
- Check visitors in from third-party tools and send Robin notifications in real time.
- Automate temporary badge access through security platforms.
You can also build custom visitor workflows into internal workplace apps. Employees, front desk teams and guests then get a more connected experience.
For more information, see the Visitor API Help Center article and the Visitor API documentation.

Robin’s user agent
Robin’s user agent lets employees plan their week and manage workplace bookings in natural language. It will be released to customers throughout May 2026.
With one prompt, users can book desks and parking, fill in missing reservations and find space for meetings. This cuts the back-and-forth needed to coordinate time in the office.
The user agent will be available first in the Robin mobile app, with broader access coming soon.
Next steps: To request early access, contact your Customer Success Manager or success@robinpowered.com.
Other updates
This release also brings these updates:
- More flexible permissions for custom resources: Parking, lockers and other resources can now follow desk-level permissions. This makes it easier to control access across buildings, floors or specific areas, without setting up each resource by hand.
- Clearer booking confirmations for delegates: Confirmation messages now show who made a reservation and who it affects. This reduces confusion when you book for others.
- Delegate check-in support: Delegates can again check users in for others. This makes it easier for EAs and admins to manage reservations from start to finish.
