Know who's in. Plan the day around it.
perch.day shows who's coming into the office and turns it into action: catering by headcount and dietary need, guest visits, and capacity, in one lightweight weekly view.
No credit card · Free for up to 5 people · Set up in minutes
Stop guessing who's coming in.
Slack polls and shared sheets go stale by Tuesday. perch.day keeps a live weekly grid everyone updates in one tap.
- One-tap in or out for the whole week
- Live headcount for every day
- See your whole team at a glance
Turn a maybe into a real office day.
Everyone waits to see who else is in, so no one commits and the day fizzles. Propose a day that only locks in once enough people are on board.
- Set the day and how many make it worth the trip
- People opt in, with no commitment until it hits the number
- Hits the mark and it's on for everyone, falls short and it quietly expires
Coordinate with the people you actually sit with.
A whole-office grid is noise when you just want your crew. Make opt-in squads to filter the week to your people, and settle lunch together, right on the grid.
- Opt-in squads: both sides say yes, nobody is tracked
- Filter the week down to just your squad
- Vote on where to eat, for the office or your squad
Cater for exactly who shows up.
Ordering blind means waste or shortfall, and dietary needs get lost in DMs. Get the numbers straight from attendance.
- Headcount by meal, per day
- Totals by dietary tag: veg, halal, allergies
- No more guesswork or over-ordering
Plan for visitors, not surprises.
Guests show up unlogged and reception gets caught out. Log guest visits against the day, built in, with no paid add-on.
- Add guest visits to any day
- Counts roll into catering and capacity
- Built in, no add-on, no extra fee
The whole week, at a glance.
Leaders get no read on utilization. A weekly dashboard shows headcounts and capacity per office, in each office's timezone.
- Weekly headcounts and capacity
- Per office, timezone-aware
- Plan space and facilities ahead
Set your day without leaving Slack.
Nobody opens another tool to say they're coming in. perch meets your team in Slack: an opt-in morning nudge, one tap to answer, and the day's plan lands where everyone already is.
- Opt-in morning nudge with one-tap in or out
- Daily who's-in digest in the channels you choose
- Your week at a glance in the perch Home tab
Everything you need to run the office day, nothing you don't.
