News of the Day

SocialCrowd, the "Fitbit for work" performance management platform, has raised a $2.5 million seed round, co-led by Bread and Butter Ventures and Augment Ventures, following a previous $1.6 million pre-seed. Co-founder and CEO Raphael Akinsipe shared that SocialCrowd helps employers incentivize frontline and shift workers by setting measurable goals and offering rewards, like a restaurant boosting sales by 490% by rewarding staff for specials sold. As the company scales 20% month-over-month, this funding will go toward expanding engineering and customer success teams to meet demand. Investors are betting on tools that optimize productivity for hourly workers, a crucial yet under-served workforce in sectors like retail and manufacturing.
