Shft was...

A place to work without distraction.

When we started Shft we set out to replace the coffee shop as a communal place of work: to shft the mindset about how we use workspaces.

Our approach was through guaranteed high performance Internet, a quiet work environment, and great partnerships with local businesses.

We built a simple online system for our customers to find workplaces and pay a simple monthly fee for access.

Your office shouldn’t be a place to avoid; you should love going to work.

  • Shft ceased operations in 2018.
  • COVID forced everyone back home and communal spaces became less useful.
  • Coffee shops now have far better Internet or people simply use their phone's data.

And yet... distraction-from-work is still a serious problem both at home and at coffee shops.

How it worked

We made co-working as easy as it gets! You sign up for the days you want to work, whether a one-time booking or recurring like every Tue and Thursday from 11am-4pm.

We automatically registered your slots for those days and sent a welcome package with WiFi access info. All you have to do is show up and get working!

It included perks like discounted coffee from nearby coffee shops, rock solid Internet, and bulk pricing for companies with many remote workers.
