PROGRAMMABLE PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Space is software now.

The missing layer for physical capacity.

Declare an intent. The system allocates the nearest space that can fulfill it.

You specify the need.
The system allocates.

Three steps from intent to access.

1. Specify Intent

Tell us your intent, duration (15 minutes or 15 hours), and what you need: a room, studio, or vehicle.

2. Allocate

The system matches your intent to the nearest available capacity, scoring each option for utility fit, proximity, and price.

3. Use

Walk in, use the space, walk out. The capacity returns to the network for the next allocation.

THE MISSING LAYER

Every leap in technology encoded complexity into an abstraction.

The internet did it for information.
Stripe did it for payments.
Restspace does it for physical capacity.

Today, finding the right space takes too many steps: discover a marketplace, browse categories, reconcile schemas, piece together availability. When capacity is described by what it can do, those steps collapse. You declare an intent. The system allocates.

The result: a large share of urban capacity that sits idle today becomes addressable. Operators earn from hours that previously produced nothing. Guests get a nap, a shower, a desk, or a car, allocated in minutes rather than negotiated over days.

Restspace: activating idle urban capacity

Every space is described by what it can do.

Not what it is. Tap a utility to see it in action.

Operators show their space instead of classifying it. The AI maps photos to addressable capabilities.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about allocating and activating capacity.

What is Restspace?

Restspace is programmable physical infrastructure. We turn idle spaces and assets into capacity described by what they can do: Rest, Work, Refresh, Store, Exercise, Connect, Move (vehicles), and Events.

How does allocation by intent work?

Describe what you need and for how long in plain language. Our AI interprets your intent, then the system scores nearby capacity on utility fit, duration, proximity, availability, price, and quality, and allocates the best match.

What does it cost? Are there any fees?

You pay the displayed price, with no extra fees. A small platform fee is already included in every displayed price. Operators pay no monthly fees or subscriptions and keep their full listed price.

Where is Restspace available?

Capacity is concentrated in Southern California today; search any location to see what's live. Restspace is available on the web and in the iOS app.

Can I cancel an allocation?

Yes. Each space has a cancellation policy set by its operator (Flexible, Moderate, Strict, Super Strict, or Non-Refundable), shown on the space page and at checkout. If an operator rejects your request or cancels your allocation, you always receive a full 100% refund.

How do I activate my own space?

Create an account, go to Activate Your Assets, and show your space with photos or a plain-language description. Our AI proposes utilities, amenities, and pricing for you to review and confirm, and you connect Stripe to receive payouts. It is free to join.
