Staffjoy makes workers happier and businesses more profitable by replacing
their manual scheduling with automation
1,741 shifts per week 23% weekly user growth $600 annual
savings per worker

about 4 hours every week scheduling shifts for their workers. Most managers are guessing. Bad guesses waste money.
Under-scheduling hurts service
Over-scheduling wastes money

= $6 billion TAM
