Revenue model

1. Day Pass Transaction Fees: LANS charges users for day passes at coworking spaces. Users pay a per-use fee ranging from $10-$24 per day depending on the space. The platform acts as an intermediary, facilitating bookings but not owning or operating the physical spaces. Payment processing is handled by third-party providers.

Core offering

LANS operates a mobile marketplace that connects individual users with 300+ third-party coworking spaces for on-demand day pass bookings. Users browse nearby spaces via the iOS or Android app, pay a per-day fee (typically starting at $14 and ranging up to $24 depending on the host space), and walk in the same day without memberships or long-term leases. The platform does not own or operate any physical workspaces; it earns revenue by facilitating these day-pass transactions between users and space hosts.

Product overview

LANS offers a single unified mobile app and marketplace platform that enables on-demand coworking day pass bookings across a network of 300+ partner spaces in 178 cities. The core product is the LANS Mobile App (available on iOS and Android) combined with the Spaces Directory browsing interface, which together provide instant access to day passes at coworking spaces without memberships or long-term commitments. Pricing starts from $14/day, and the platform supports hybrid employees, remote workers, freelancers, traveling professionals, and teams needing flexible workspace access.

Emerging players

• Workfrom: Workfrom is a workspace discovery platform that helps remote workers find productive places to work, including coworking spaces and cafes. It serves the same remote/freelancer persona as LANS but with a broader workspace-type focus.
• Coworker.com: Coworker.com is a global coworking directory and marketplace connecting users to coworking and flexible office spaces. It overlaps with LANS's discovery and booking functionality, though its monetization model is more lead-gen oriented.
• Office Space (formerly Spacious): Spacious (now Office Space) was a marketplace for underused workspaces offering day passes to remote workers. It is a direct historical comparable to LANS in concept and target customer, illustrating both the model viability and the execution challenges in this category.

Broad incumbents

• Industrious: Industrious is a premium coworking and flexible office operator with nationwide locations. It overlaps with LANS's premium-day-pass price points (e.g., $24/day New Orleans) and competes for the same hybrid/traveling professional persona.
• WeWork: WeWork is the largest coworking operator and offers its own on-demand day pass product. It competes with LANS for the same end users, but as a vertically integrated operator rather than an aggregator; its scale and brand are a structural threat to small marketplaces.
• ClassPass: ClassPass pioneered the subscription-based marketplace model for flexible access to fitness and wellness studios. LANS explicitly cites ClassPass as the model it is replicating for coworking, making it a relevant marketplace-design reference and potential cross-vertical competitor if ClassPass expands.

Direct peers

• Deskpass: Deskpass operates a flexible workspace marketplace offering day passes and meeting room bookings across thousands of locations. It is the most direct US competitor to LANS, serving overlapping freelance and remote-worker segments with a similar pay-as-you-go model.
• Liquidspace: Liquidspace is an on-demand marketplace for meeting rooms, day offices, and coworking. It is directly comparable to LANS in marketplace structure and target customer (mobile professionals needing flexible workspace), with a stronger B2B/enterprise tilt.
