The Challenge

The industry's leap from outdated systems to AI-powered workforce solutions is one of its greatest challenges.

76%
Hotels report severe understaffing

Post-pandemic labor shortages remain the industry's top operational pain point.

40.5%
Turnover rate — and climbing

Inflexible schedules, poor training, and burnout drive workers out the door.

$8.8B
Lost annually to inefficiency

Labor is the largest controllable cost — and it's largely unoptimized.

The Platform

One intelligent system for your entire workforce

Weldon unifies scheduling, staffing, and training in a single AI-native platform — purpose-built for the dynamics of hospitality operations.

AI Scheduling

Predicts demand in real time and automatically adjusts staffing — eliminating costly over- and under-staffing before it happens.

Flexible Staffing

Workers choose shifts that fit their lives. Operators get reliable, pre-vetted staff matched by skills, certifications, and ratings.

Micro-Learning

15-minute training modules upskill employees fast. Cross-train staff across departments — reducing hiring needs, boosting careers.

Live Analytics

Real-time dashboards give operators full visibility into labor costs, coverage gaps, and workforce performance across every shift.

AI Matching

Proprietary algorithms match workers to shifts based on skills, reliability scores, availability, and location — automatically.

Trust & Ratings

A two-sided reliability scoring system builds accountability. Workers and operators rate each other — creating a self-improving network.
