We are small, but passionate team wanting to build a better gig economy, by focusing on the most important part - the workers.
Para is a tech company focused on making gig work prosperous and sustainable.
We build tools that put gig workers in charge of their work - the gig economy only works if they work.
Our technology offers drivers a safer way to drive, critical trip details to make informed decisions, and visibility to all available gig work opportunities. This way workers can choose the best work to suit their goals. We call this a "personal dispatch system" for each worker.
