Company Overview

Our mission is to empower people to have their most productive workday. To do this we have built the industry-leading workforce analytics platform for remote and distributed teams. We were an early believer in the remote work trend and have been one hundred percent remote from day one, which was over a decade ago. With a focus on transparency and accountability, our software provides valuable insights about work habits. Our platform powers time and activity tracking, shift/schedule management, as well as invoicing, and payments for over 95,000 businesses. But we are just getting started. We believe that the remote work trend represents the biggest tectonic shift in the business world since the advent of the PC and that the majority of companies will have a tool like Hubstaff in their tech stack within the next decade. We have a winning culture and want to talk to you about how to help us continue our incredible momentum.
