Starbiter

Starbiter is a just-in-time staffing platform that enables companies to find staffers in short notice for small time periods, or shifts (usually less than a day).

The interaction between companies and workers is done via a mobile app. Location plays an important role: when a new shift is added, available workers in its vecinity will be notified. They can claim a task, and the company will be notified right away. The main pieces of information about a shift are: category, description, duration, location, and price (for the full shift, not per hour).

If a worker claims a shift and is not rejected, when the time of the shift comes, the worker can tap to start, and later to finish the shift. After it is finished, the company can confirm that the worker indeed has done its job, and can rate her/him.

Advantages for workers:
Find shifts near you
Very fast turnaround times

Advantages for companies:
