About

Back in 2014, we were working in the hospitality industry, having to source temporary
staff. We asked a few simple questions: why has the method of temporary staffing
never evolved and why is it still an archaic process? In an era filled with technology
and advancements, why is there no practical system for finding top-rated, effective
professionals to provide local temporary work? We saw a growing segment of
frontline workers, often part-time or unemployed, struggling to find additional
work and make ends meet around their busy schedules. Some already had the right
skillsets to get the job done, while others could quickly learn. The convergence of
these two insights began our journey to create a smarter way to match supply and
demand and to redefine the pool of talent available to get work done.
We set out to build the easiest, most convenient, scalable, technology-driven solution
for staffing issues. Whether you need to fill a staffing gap, or you simply don’t have
enough employees to get a certain job done, we launched the Gig Assist web and
mobile apps to connect hourly workers with available shifts.
