Nine bills, or one.
Run a 15-desk office yourself and rent is just the first of nine line items every month. Flex folds all of them into a single subscription.
Rent less. Use more.
Build your own and every room — meeting, kitchen, breakout — sits inside your lease, paid for and half-empty most of the week. In flex, the big rooms are shared, so your private space shrinks while what you can use multiplies.
Every dashed room is capex + sqm you carry — used a few hours a week.
You rent the purple box. You use everything around it — no sqm, no fit-out.
Assumes ≈13 m²/desk for a self-built office (your own meeting rooms + kitchen) vs ≈7 m²/desk private in flex with shared amenities — about 45% less space to rent. An estimate; adjust to your own plan.
One signature vs. a project plan.
Same 15 desks. The difference is everything that stands between today and your team’s first working Monday.
The lease isn’t always the loser.
Set the amenities aside for a moment. On money alone, a long lease can win — its big upfront cost spreads over the years. The catch: it only works if your team stays put and stays the same size.
Assumes a lease run lean at €380/desk/mo (no shared amenities) plus €16k/desk fit-out, vs. flex at €480/desk all-in. Team change modelled at ±15%/yr.
Same team. A bigger office. €3,685/mo lighter.
For a 15-desk team, flex isn’t just cheaper on paper — it removes the capex, the months, and the long lease entirely.
