Tito Goldstein

We jumped into this world thinking, hey, scheduling is the crux of the day-to-day.

We actually were wandering the streets of Emeryville and San Francisco trying to talk to any company that would talk to us.

So a lot of these companies, they couldn't attract a worker to fill that shift, which meant that they were losing revenue.

They weren't able to deliver orders.

They weren't able to deliver a great quality experience.

My name's Tito.

My name's Arjun.

And we're the co-founders of TeamBridge.

60% of the world's workforce is hourly.

And when we were at Uber, we spent a lot of time interviewing drivers, trying to find out why they chose to drive for Uber.

Most of them said, I know I'm making less money than that more consistently scheduled, that higher paying job that I was working before, whether that was retail, whether that was nursing, whether that was a car dealership in Brazil, but they still chose to drive for Uber.

And they and a lot of it came down to the mobile app that they had in their pocket, the self-service aspect of it, the speed at which a technology company operates compared to their more traditional employers.

And we thought, hey, how do we give that to everyone else?

And we started that with a scheduling product.

We started thinking like, hey, this is the crux of the day to day management.

We started learning more and more when we started selling to these admins and these companies that had to attract a very supply constrained market.

We jumped into this world thinking, hey, scheduling is the crux of the day-to-day.

We actually were wandering the streets of Emeryville and San Francisco, trying to talk to any company that would talk to us.

So walking into cafes, walking into restaurants, movie theaters, trying to understand the pain points of the actual end, like the employee themselves, because especially pre and post COVID, a lot of these companies were, they had the demand, but they didn't have the supply.

They couldn't attract a worker immediately.
