Description
Firstwork, a YC alumni company founded by ex-Deliveroo head of strategy Vardhan Kapoor, raised $15 million in Series A funding led by Earlybird Venture Capital. The round included participation from Legion VC, Deel Ventures, SOMA Capital, 468 Capital, and Houghton Street Ventures, bringing total funding to $20 million. Firstwork's AI agents automate the critical period between job offer acceptance and an employee's first shift, addressing high dropout rates in frontline positions. The company plans to use the funding to expand its London headquarters and support European clients across healthcare, logistics, and energy sectors.
