Remote work cuts out the commute and distractions of the office. Coworking spaces provide collaboration and a sense of community (and many more benefits) that some don’t get with remote work only, but they’re expensive. Then there’s virtual coworking: a nascent product idea where people can work remotely but collaborate digitally.
If you’re looking for a virtual coworking community, platform, or software tool… we’ve compiled the full list below.

What is virtual coworking?
Virtual coworking (Other names you may have heard are virtual coworking space, virtual coworking community, or virtual coworking platform) is the process of performing work in a digital space with others.
A virtual coworking space is an online environment in which multiple people can collaborate and interact. Since the concept is so new, virtual coworking could mean different things to different people. Here are some of the different uses of virtual coworking:
- Connect virtually with another person to hold each other accountable for work you plan to get done
- Connect virtually with a community of people who share a common interest (like remote work or solo entrepreneurship)
- Set up a virtual office space with meeting rooms, common spaces, and avatars
What are the best free virtual coworking spaces?
If you’re a solo-entrepreneur or remote worker looking for the benefits of a coworking space online, there are plenty of free options. I recommend the following free virtual coworking tools for depending on the use you seek:
- Focusmate or My Focus Space for peer accountability: You get three free coworking sessions per week
- Myworkhive for an online community: Connect with remote workers from around the world in a Slack channel
- Deskmy for teams of five and under: A virtual office space with avatars, meeting rooms, and common areas
- Bramble for virtual worlds: For 10 people or fewer, build virtual spaces for your headquarters, conferences, or events
