Companies want to know how many people are back in the office. They're using water coolers to find out.

As companies adjust to a world of remote and hybrid work schedules, an unusual tool is emerging to help businesses keep track of their workers — the water cooler.

"The amount of water people drink turns out to be a good indicator of how much time they're spending in the office," Bevi co-founder and CEO Sean Grundy told Bloomberg in an interview."For us, it's positive that it's been trending up." According to Bloomberg, Grundy and his company have begun to receive requests from investors and hedge funds to examine Bevi's data. The companies hope to gain insight into office trends, as remote work continues to solidify itself as a standard.
