Office Hours

Platform for expert interviews and payments

Overview

OfficeHours.com runs a knowledge-sharing platform that connects professionals with firms seeking insights, handling expert interviews at scale. Clients search for experts by title, organization, knowledge area, or location, schedule interviews, and receive transcripts organized by topic; the platform also manages compliance, scheduling, and payments, while professionals can host Office Hours to earn money. It differentiates itself by offering end-to-end administration for interview-based knowledge gathering and a monetized, searchable network of advisors, rather than relying on traditional consultancies or marketplaces. Its goal is to help firms gain actionable insights efficiently by coordinating large-scale interviews and delivering organized knowledge while reducing administrative work.
