  • Publication number: 20250150780
    Abstract: Disclosed is a platform that provides temporary staff along with administrative infrastructure to employers who have temporary staffing needs. Administrative issues are monitored via dynamically generated geofences and mobile devices (mobile phones) carried by worker-users. The geofences serve as time clock and behavioral monitor zone.

  • Publication number: 20250086382
    Abstract: Disclosed is a platform that manages worker users in a temporary staffing environment via an artificial machine learning model. The temporary staffing platform matches available workers to available shifts/gigs. Additional features include generating provisional or near-miss matches and informing workers how to turn those near-misses into full matches, plotting a gig-career path to develop additional skills, gamify development, and automatically generate resumes. The platform generates a set of skill tags associated with each shift/gig performed by the user. Designing of resume text files by the artificial machine learning model includes procedurally generated descriptions of experience the a user has based on the recording of each shift/gig performed by the user and the skill tags associated with each recorded shift/gig, wherein a format of the resume text file is formulated by the artificial machine learning model evaluating a mix of skill tags and employers amassed by the user.

  • Patent number: 11954619
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods described include receiving data related to an availability for a shift, automatically triggering initiation of a communications session related to the shift, conducting the communications session, and receiving and storing a plurality of audio or audio and visual signals from the communications session. Machine learning (ML) sentiment analysis is performed on data of the communications session and based on the sentiment analysis, a reliability score is determined.

  • Publication number: 20230019856
    Abstract: Disclosed is a platform that manages worker users in a temporary staffing environment via an AI machine learning model. The machine learning model predicts dispatch outcomes of a plurality of pairings of worker users to potential shifts. A dispatch outcome predicts whether a worker will show up for and work a given shift. The machine learning model is based on a set of training data surrounding historical dispatch outcomes. The data surrounding the historical dispatch outcomes includes data relating to users, data relating to shifts, and data derived from a combination of both. An implementation of the machine learning model stitches together multiple shifts for up to a schedule horizon based on predicted dispatch outcomes.
