Connects businesses with vetted hourly workers

About Instawork

Instawork connects businesses with over 5 million vetted short-term, seasonal, and temp-to-hire workers through its online platform. It primarily serves companies looking for hourly workers, offering a solution that is more efficient than traditional staffing agencies. The platform features an intelligent matching system that pairs businesses with suitable workers from its extensive database, supported by a rigorous vetting process to ensure reliability. This has led to a high demand for Instawork's workers, with 93% of businesses wanting them to return and a low 2% no-show rate. Businesses can view worker profiles and experience before they pick up shifts, and those looking for full-time employees can also search and hire from the database. Instawork generates revenue by charging businesses for connecting them with workers, and its importance grew during the pandemic, solidifying its market position.
