About the Company

Instawork

Online platform for hourly staffing

Instawork is an online staffing platform that connects businesses with a large pool of vetted hourly workers for short-term, seasonal, and temp-to-hire roles. It uses an intelligent matching system to pair needs with suitable workers from its database, backed by a thorough vetting process; businesses can view worker profiles and experience as soon as shifts are picked, and they can also hire full-time workers from the same pool. Compared with competitors, Instawork combines a large, vetted worker pool with transparent profiles and data-driven matching, resulting in high repeat usage (93% want workers to return) and low no-show rates (2%). Its goal is to simplify and scale the process of finding reliable hourly workers, helping businesses fill shifts quickly and access ongoing staffing from one source.
