Every department in your company gets its own workspace

A department is a team in your company — and its own workspace. Name it, add its heads and employees, and Qik Office creates the workspace with it: heads become its admins, employees become its members, and every agentic room the department opens lives inside it.

Heads administer each workspace and employees are its members. The rooms a department opens belong to it.

AI project manager

The agent builds and reads your departments

From your private command center, the AI agent acts across the whole company office for owners and admins. Every company-wide change is proposed as a card and waits for your confirmation.

  1. 01

    Creates a department on request

    Ask for a Finance department with its heads and employees and the agent proposes it with the real create form inside the card, ready for you to confirm.

  2. 02

    Rooms for a whole department

    Ask for a room with everyone in HR and the agent finds the department, collects its heads and members, and proposes the room with all of them in it.

  3. 03

    Sets up the office in one go

    Say “build my office” and the agent proposes a tree of department workspaces, each with its own agentic rooms, to create together.

Capabilities

The org chart and the office, built as one

Departments live in company settings beside reporting heads and designations. Each one carries its people, its workspace and its rooms on a single card.

A workspace with every department

Create a department and a workspace with its name is created alongside it. Heads become its admins, employees its members, and the department’s rooms live inside it.

Or connect one you already run

Pick a workspace you own and it becomes the department’s, renamed to match. Everyone already in it stays; department members are added alongside them.

Heads and employees

Add people with one button, then set each person’s part from their menu — department head or employee. A department head can also be made a reporting head in one step.

A department announcements room

Switch on announcements for a department and its workspace gets an announcements room everyone in the department can read. Enable every department at once from Company announcements.

Membership kept in sync

The department card counts any differences between the department and its workspace — people missing, extra or in the wrong role — and Resync members lines them up again.

Departments on the org chart

The org chart has a Departments view showing each department with its heads. Click a department to go straight to its workspace.

One structure, used everywhere

Set up a department once, pick it everywhere

The department you create in company settings is the same one you choose when you post to a team, link a policy, hand down a goal or route a workflow step.

  • Announcements

    Each department’s announcements room sits in its workspace, readable by everyone in the department.

  • Policies

    Link a policy to a department and everyone in it sees the policy — and so do the AI agents working for them.

  • Goals

    Pick a department in the goal form and the same goal is written onto each person in it.

  • Workflows

    A workflow step can go to “a department head” for a department you name, so it reaches whoever heads that department when the step starts.

Flow through the room

From a new department to a working team

One dialog sets up the team, its workspace and the people in it. Everything the department does next happens inside that workspace.

In practice

Who runs on Departments

Operations

An office that mirrors the org

Sales, Engineering, HR and Finance each get a workspace of their own, so every room has an obvious home and every team has its own space.

Department heads

A space they administer

Heads are admins of their department’s workspace, so the rooms their team works in are theirs to run — with an announcements room to reach everyone in the team.

Founders

The whole structure in one conversation

Ask the agent to build your office and review the proposed department workspaces and rooms before anything is created.

Across the product

One company, one office, one shared state

Questions

Departments, answered

Each department is meant to have one. Create a new workspace or connect one you own; a department without one shows both options on its card until it is set up.

The workspace and everything in it are kept. Only the department goes.

If the department’s workspace has rooms, you choose: keep their access to those rooms, or remove them from all of them. Either way they leave the department.

They are different jobs. A department head administers the department and its workspace; a reporting head is who people report to. A department head can also be made a reporting head from their menu in one step.

Company owners and admins create, rename, staff and delete departments. Everyone else sees My departments — the departments they belong to.
