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.
