What is Skedda?
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.
What is Twake Drive?
Twake Drive's second 1.108 beta makes OnlyOffice PDF editing opt-in and adds picker views.
Twake Drive ships beta releases every few weeks. 1.108.0-beta.1 was its largest in months, adding nested sharing, in-app invitations, a rebuilt move dialog, an optional AI writing assistant, OnlyOffice PDF opening and Twake Space embedding. beta.2 adds list and grid views to the file picker, opens PDFs in the standard viewer by default with OnlyOffice editing only when enabled, limits the writing assistant's ready message to Drive, and fixes shared-drive invitation declines.

Skedda
6.3COLLAB
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
◆ Current state
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.
◆ Where it's heading
Skedda is shifting from a booking front end to a source of workplace attendance data. Companion's MDM rollout aims at complete presence coverage, which makes the occupancy analytics and API more valuable as more laptops report in.
◆ Prediction
Expect occupancy and presence data to reach the API, since Skedda said more API capabilities are planned and Companion now feeds richer attendance data.
Twake Drive
5.0COLLAB
Twake Drive's second 1.108 beta makes OnlyOffice PDF editing opt-in and adds picker views.
◆ Current state
Twake Drive ships beta releases every few weeks. 1.108.0-beta.1 was its largest in months, adding nested sharing, in-app invitations, a rebuilt move dialog, an optional AI writing assistant, OnlyOffice PDF opening and Twake Space embedding. beta.2 adds list and grid views to the file picker, opens PDFs in the standard viewer by default with OnlyOffice editing only when enabled, limits the writing assistant's ready message to Drive, and fixes shared-drive invitation declines.
◆ Where it's heading
The file picker work of the summer now shows up inside Drive and for connected apps. With Twake Space embedding and an AI assistant behind flags, Drive is becoming one component of a broader workspace suite; beta.2 pulling back the OnlyOffice PDF default shows the team tuning those additions before a stable release.
◆ Prediction
Expect further 1.108 betas fixing sharing and picker details before a stable 1.108; the entries don't show when the AI assistant will be enabled by default.
