    About WorkWhile

    WorkWhile is on a mission to help workers earn a better living and live better lives. More than 80 million Americans work hourly jobs — often with unpredictable schedules, near-minimum wages, and few benefits — leading to real financial instability. We're fixing that.

    WorkWhile is evolving from a high-growth labor marketplace into a comprehensive workforce platform, expanding our product suite to include Newday (our SaaS workforce management system) and WorkWhile Wallet (our fintech solution for worker earnings and credit). The result is a multi-business-model company with a genuinely complex, interesting financial landscape.

    Backed by Khosla Ventures and recognized by the Inc. 5000 for 10x growth, we're disrupting the $650 billion staffing and recruiting market.
