TeamBridge, created by former Uber executives, will use the $28 million to build hourly worker HR solutions.

TeamBridge, by Vora and Goldstein, simplifies some of the HR administrative tasks while providing an hourly employee self-service app for convenience.

Arjun Vora and Tito Goldstein were working in the business side of Uber when they realised a big gap in HR software, which was mainly not designed to manage hourly employees effectively. The couple realised that many hourly workers were lacking a method to perform fundamental self-service tasks, such as clocking in and updating the payment accounts.

After interviewing hundreds of Uber drivers for extended periods of time, Vora, a former product designer at Salesforce, and Goldstein, the former design lead at Hyperloop, decided to take matters into their own hands and build a platform to their specifications.

It becomes imperative, according to Vora, to refresh technology infrastructure. “Organisations must find, activate, and engage their workforce in ways similar to the strategies employed by gig economy companies that attract talent away from them.”.

TeamBridge provides an end with templates and workflows optimised for onboarding and time-off tracking. Using the customisable app, employees can see open shifts and request them, sign necessary legal documents, and message managers directly via text.

Customers can subscribe to the core TeamBridge platform, but they can add certain self-service and workflow-driven abilities on top for an added fee.

“We provide the core modules that enable flexible, ready-to-work HR workflows and custom mobile applications,” said TeamBridge Chief Executive Officer Vora.

Other players going after the gig worker HR software market include Wingspan, Kronos, Deputy, and Homebase. San Francisco-based TeamBridge shows particular teething, with 100,000 hourly workers on its platform and corporate customers including Convo and Dairy Queen.

According to Vora, revenues tripled last year after launching TeamBridge and more than doubled again in the first half of 2024.

“When services are in demand, customers want to scale their businesses,” Vora said. “When customers experience a slowdown, they have to look at automation and find ways to do more with less. This deal allows us to scale TeamBridge up or down according to the market’s changing needs.”.

TeamBridge had raised $28 million in a Series B funding round, which Mayfield led with participation from General Catalyst and Abstract Ventures, bringing the startup’s total raised to $41.5 million in anticipation of its growth spree. The fresh capital, according to Vora, will go towards product research and development while expanding the headcount at TeamBridge from the current 42 to 84 in the next year.
