Overview

ShiftKey runs a technology-driven marketplace that directly connects independent licensed healthcare professionals with healthcare facilities that have open per-diem shifts. Professionals browse shifts and choose ones that fit their schedule, while facilities post needs and manage credentials; the platform charges facilities per shift or via subscription. It differentiates itself with a direct-forces marketplace plus credential management and scheduling tools, enhanced by acquiring OnShift to create the Schedule Automation Marketplace Integration (SAMI), which helps facilities see all schedules and proactively fill gaps. The goal is to alleviate healthcare staffing shortages by providing flexible, scalable workforce solutions that reduce unfilled shifts and improve workforce management.
