Osnabrück, Germany-based desk.ly, a provider of an AI-powered platform for modern workplace management, announced the acquisition of Sedeo, a desk booking solution.
The announcement comes over three months after securing seven-figure funding from HTGF.
Sedeo: Digitising the workplace

An intuitive user interface makes it easy for any employee to use Sedeo without time-consuming training. Sedeo minimises change management to a minimum.
“Sedeo brings almost 10 years of experience in the field of desk booking, which we now combine with the strength of our platform. For all existing Sedeo customers, this means a seamless transition to our workplace management platform, combined with a clear upgrade: more modern technology, more security, higher scalability and new features that create real added value,” says Felix Mohr, CEO and founder of desk.ly in a LinkedIn post.
With this move, desk.ly strengthens its mission to design flexible, productive, and people-focused working environments that help businesses navigate the challenges of modern hybrid work.
Desk.ly: Minimising empty desks
Led by Felix Mohr, the company’s desk-sharing software helps minimise empty desks, make better use of resources, and create more flexible office layouts.
This results in greater efficiency and less wasted space. Since its founding in 2021, desk.ly has been helping companies transition to hybrid working models.
With over 1,000 customers, including Eurowings, Funke Medien Gruppe, OMR, Volksbank, Fraunhofer, and more than 100,000 active users, the company claims to be one of the leading platforms for intelligent workplace management in Europe.
In addition to reducing rental costs, desk.ly can also optimise ancillary costs such as energy, cleaning and food, benefiting the company’s bottom line and contributing to sustainability.
“The acquisition is therefore a milestone in our growth strategy and at the same time a signal: We are consolidating the market, taking responsibility for our customers and shaping the future of work,” concludes Felix Mohr.
