Louisville is known for many things, from bourbon to baseball bats. But once a year, the attention of horse racing enthusiasts from across the world hones in on the Gateway to the South.
Kentucky Derby festivities and related tourism events are expected to generate more than 36 million dollars and attendance in the hundreds of thousands. For area businesses, it's a high stakes week necessitating extra hands on deck to keep everything running smoothly for customers.
Scenarios like this are when businesses, Instawork Partners, are matched with qualified and reliable workers, Instawork Pros, locally in their area. By using AI technology and more than 30 data points to create successful matches, the platform can ease the burden of traditional staffing practices which are often arduous and expensive.
In Louisville, local businesses are able to take advantage of this technology when they need hourly workers, including for large special events. The platform specializes in connecting businesses with workers based on their unique business needs while providing workers the choice to decide when, where, and how they work best.

Businesses can quickly get the help they need
Pros on the platform are pre-vetted to ensure they have the right skills and experience our Partners need. Once they are approved, the Pros have immediate access to available shifts and can deliver their valuable services.
To ensure the best experience, Instawork encourages both hourly workers and businesses to rate each other on a five-star scale after each shift to help match future shifts with those who are best qualified.
Businesses that rely on Instawork Pros across the Bluegrass State range from nationally-recognized hotels and restaurant groups to some of the city's favorite local hot spots. Instawork is also proud to staff the majority of the baseball and football stadiums across the country.
