Helping people get ready for work

Helping frontline employers find, prepare and hire people with confidence.

ShiftMate uses AI alongside real-world data and human insight to help employers see what people can do, support them where they need to grow, and hire with more confidence.

We started with contact centres in South Africa, where this approach is already useful. It can support employers across other frontline industries too.

The ShiftMate Proof Layer

A CV proves nothing. A trial shift lets you see exactly what someone can do.

Most hiring decisions are made with incomplete information. ShiftMate gives employers a richer view of each candidate before they meet them — combining behavioural assessments, voice readiness, skills simulations, learning progress and trial shift data into one clear readiness record.
