Smart staffing that just works
All-in-one workforce platform
Grab disrupted taxis. Foodpanda disrupted delivery.
SEA's multi-billion dollar flexible staffing market still operates without infrastructure.
700,000 Singaporeans do casual work across F&B, retail, events, hospitality and logistics. Thousands of venues need them every single day.
But the system connecting them is still stuck in the pre-smartphone era:
Job boards
take weeks
Agencies
extract 25%
Telegram/WhatsApp
zero protection
No verification. No tracking. No security for either side.
When you can order a car in 2 minutes or food in 5, why does finding a shift for tomorrow still take 47 messages?
The infrastructure for flexible work doesn't exist yet, so we're building it. And we're starting with the $6-8B market in Southeast Asia that's begging for disruption.

The Ecosystem Advantage
Gig Marketplace - Freemium
Free to post shifts → 15% commission when filled
Rosta: from S$49/month base
Academy + PayOut: Bundle upsell
Hook: Rosta subscription (scheduling their internal team)
Upsell: Gig platform (unfilled shifts → toggle to marketplace)
Lock: Academy (training) + PayOut (payroll) = full-stack dependency
Part-timers using Rosta → toggle to gig platform when free
Find complementary shifts elsewhere → earn more, stay loyal
Both sides need us. Switching means rebuilding everything.

The moat is full-stack integration
Standalone gig platforms: Can't manage internal teams
Scheduling software: Can't access gig workers
Payroll providers: Don't handle scheduling or hiring
Training platforms: Disconnected from operations
→ Scheduler connects directly to gig marketplace (one toggle)
→ Part-timers toggle between employer's shifts and gig platform
→ Training and payroll integrate across internal + gig workers
Employers need us: Scheduling + instant gig access + payroll in one system
Workers need us: Regular shifts + extra earning opportunities seamlessly
Full-stack = high switching costs = retention moat
First to market with complete integration
Land with Rosta. Expand through gig platform. Lock with bundles.
Acquisition: Direct sales + partnerships + events
Hook: Rosta solves unfilled shifts (internal employees see and pick up, or toggle to gig platform for external workers)
Expand: Gig platform becomes essential for overflow staffing
Lock: Academy + PayOut bundle completes the ecosystem
