Ben, our CTO, will walk you through Sona's AI features designed specifically for large Hospitality providers.
In the last two years, we've had:

0+Frontline users
0+Raised from world class investors
£0+80% of the global workforce doesn't typically work at a desk, including many in frontline industries.
Almost every organisation buys software to manage its workforce. But there are hardly any tools out there purpose-built for frontline workers.
Sona is here to change that.
For frontline employees: that means a consumer-grade app experience, with a shift marketplace for more flexibility, advanced payslips, and communication.
For frontline organisations: that means replacing multiple legacy tools and processes with a single platform that seamlessly operations, HR, finance, and employee wellbeing.
Sona’s customers have already seen game-changing improvements in team efficiency and engagement. They are significantly reducing their staffing and operational costs, too.
We couldn’t be more proud of the product and team we’re building to transform the future of frontline work.
