Instawork is an AI-powered staffing platform that connects businesses with temporary and permanent workers across hospitality, warehouse, retail, hotel, event, and food service operations. It serves over 7 million workers in 400+ cities across the U.S. and Canada, using AI to match workers to shifts and maintain worker profiles with ratings and work history. Its distinctiveness lies in its AI-driven matching and large network, though worker history is locked within the platform.
