Alumni Q&A
- How did your company get started? (i.e., How did the founders meet? How did you come up with the idea? How did you decide to be a founder?)
- The founders went through the YC W22 batch and, about four months after graduating in March 2022, pivoted after their original business failed to gain traction. Focusing on Canada's labour shortage and declining worker satisfaction, they built Airwork as a marketplace pairing on-demand shift workers with businesses.
Summarized from the founders' answers on their Y Combinator profile.
