There's a question that gets asked in almost every hybrid team, every single day.
"Is anyone actually in the office?"
Automatic Office Check-In: Know Who's In Without Anyone Lifting a FingerHere is how Team Today takes the guesswork out of office presence
When a device connects to your office Wi-Fi, your IT team sends a simple API call to Team Today with a unique device identifier and the network name. That's it.
Team Today logs the check-in, matches the device to the right team member and updates their whereabouts for the day. No app to open, no button to tap. Just walk in, connect, and you're marked as in.
It works across multiple sites too. Each network maps to a different office, so you always know which office someone is working from rather than just that they're "in."
Manual whereabouts updates depend entirely on people remembering. And on a busy Tuesday morning when everyone's running late for a 9am, that's the first thing to go.
The result is a whereabouts board that's accurate on Monday and guesswork by Thursday.
Automatic check-in cuts that out entirely. Because it's tied to something people already do when they arrive, the data just stays current.
There are two situations where reliable presence data stops being a nice-to-have.
Emergency headcounts. If something happens in your building, you need to know who was physically there that day, not who planned to be in. Automatic check-in gives office managers a real-time record they can pull up immediately rather than chasing people on their phones.
Office utilisation reporting. Working out how your space is actually being used requires data you can trust. When check-ins happen passively, your usage reports reflect what's really going on. That's what makes conversations about desk ratios and office policy worth having.
For your IT team it's a single API call from your network management tooling when a recognised device connects. No complex setup and no ongoing work to maintain it.
For your employees there's nothing at all. No new tool to learn and no new habit to form. It just runs in the background.
Automatic Office Check-In sits alongside Team Today's other hybrid tools including desk booking, leave management, Schengen travel tracking and manual whereabouts updates, all inside Microsoft Teams.
If you want a reliable picture of where your people are working, this is the part that makes the rest of it trustworthy.
