Build your crew.
Explore is where hospitality workers and restaurants discover each other. Workers show who they are behind the bar and on the line. Restaurants show what it's actually like to work there. When both sides are interested, you're connected.
Free for workers. Free for restaurants.
The job board sent forty applicants. Two showed up.
Résumés don't pour drinks.
A PDF can't show you how someone handles a Friday rush, talks to a regular, or trains a new barback. So you interview strangers and hope.
Listings don't tell you what a job is actually like.
"Competitive pay, fun team." Every listing says it. None of them tell you the tip-out, the covers, or who you'd be working for.
Everybody's looking. Nobody's found.
The best bartender in the neighborhood is one text away from leaving. The best room in the neighborhood is one block away and doesn't know she exists.
Explore fixes all three by putting the real thing on both sides of the screen.
How it works
Four steps. No résumés. No listings.
01
Build your card.
Workers answer prompts, add photos and short videos, list certifications and where they've worked. Restaurants build a card for each location: the team, the room, the pay, the culture.
02
Explore.
Workers browse locations. Restaurants browse workers. Everything you see is a real person or a real room, not a listing.
03
Show interest.
Tap on the ones you'd want. Interest is private until it's mutual, so nobody's put on the spot.
04
Connect.
When both sides are interested, a conversation opens. Talk, meet, work a shift together. Hire when it's right.
For workers
Your card is the interview.
Explore lets you show a manager what you're like before you ever meet. Not a résumé. A card.
Prompts that sound like you.
"Worst rush I survived." "The regular I'll never forget." "My superpower." Answer a few and a GM knows more about you than any cover letter could tell them.
Show your work.
Action shots. A pour test. A knife clip. A twenty-second answer to an interview question. Managers hire people, not paperwork.
Everything that makes you hireable, in one place.
Certifications and licenses. Where you've worked and for how long. Whether you know wine, beer, agave, or coffee. Whether you drive, whether you want brunch or late night, whether you're looking for full-time or one great side gig.
See what a job is actually like before you want it.
Every location on Explore has a card too: how tips work, what a weekend take looks like, how big the room is, who runs it, and what the team says about working there.
You're in control.
Interest is private until it's mutual. Browse as much as you want. Nobody knows you looked unless you both want to talk.
For restaurants
Stop hiring strangers.
Explore shows you the person, not the application. Real photos, real video, real history, real skills, before you've spent an hour on an interview that doesn't show.
See who they are before they walk in.
A bartender's pour test. A cook's knife work. A server selling the special in twenty seconds. Watch the thing you'd be hiring them to do.
Your location is the profile.
Not your company, your room. The team on the line, the management they'd report to, the tip structure, the covers on a Saturday, the culture in the words of the people who already work there. Workers choose rooms, not brands. Show them yours.
Interest is mutual, so every conversation is a warm one.
When a worker you've tapped taps you back, the conversation opens. No cold outreach. No forty applicants who won't show. Just people who already want to work for you.
Every location you run, on one account.
Build a card for each room. The bartender who's perfect for Buckhead but lives near Westside finds the right one.
What's on a card
Real on both sides.
A worker's card
- Roles and the ones they love most
- Prompts, in their own words
- Photos and short videos
- Certifications and licenses
- Work history
- Craft: wine, beer, cocktail, coffee, kitchen
- Availability and how they like to work
- The things they won't do
A location's card
- The room: concept, size, neighborhood
- Tips: structure, weekend and weekday take
- Covers and pace
- Who's running it, with faces
- Culture, in the team's words
- Photos and a night-in-the-life video
- Open roles
- Why the last person left
Not a job board. Not an agency.
Job boards send you résumés and charge you either way. Explore shows you people, and interest has to be mutual before anyone talks.
Agencies send you whoever's available. Explore shows you who wants to work in your room specifically.
Group chats find whoever answers first. Explore finds whoever's right.
Find your next crew.
Every great room and every great worker in your city is one tap from finding each other.
Free for workers. Free for restaurants.
