AI for staffing,
built by people who staff.
TempGuru is the software we built to run our own staffing operation. Scheduling, dispatch, timesheets, invoicing, client hub. In one place. The repetitive work runs itself.
Staffing agencies that actually run the work.
TempGuru started as a staffing company. The software handles the parts of the job that never made it into anyone's brochure. If your agency places people, it was built for you.
Event Staffing
Brand ambassadors, experiential, conferences, festivals, trade shows. The vertical TempGuru came out of.
Industrial & Light Industrial
Warehouse, manufacturing, logistics, fulfillment. Shift-based work with high turnover and tight compliance windows.
Blue-Collar & Trades
Construction, facilities, skilled trades, general labor. Built for agencies running W-2 workers.
General Staffing
Hospitality, retail, customer service, seasonal. One platform for every vertical you staff.
Staffing agencies run on spreadsheets.
It shows.
Most staffing software was built by people who've never covered a shift at 3am. We have. Here's the stuff it misses.
Scheduling by group text.
Five tabs, three spreadsheets, one coordinator who knows where everyone is. When she takes a day off, the whole system goes with her.
No-shows you only find out about from the client.
By the time the phone rings, it's already a problem. The software should have flagged it two hours earlier.
Timesheets that arrive Monday, get invoiced Friday.
Workers wait to get confirmed. You chase clients for approval. The week is gone.
Clients who keep emailing for roster updates.
They want visibility. You want to stop answering the same email four times a day. Both of you lose.
Hiring from a stack of resumes.
You have 400 candidates in a folder. You need 20 qualified people in Dallas this weekend. Good luck.
Growth that breaks the model.
The system works at 50 workers. It cracks at 500. It fails at 5,000. Software should scale with the business, not against it.
AI that does the job.
Not AI that writes a press release about the job.
Every feature was built to solve a real problem we had running staffing ourselves. Six models. One operating system for the agency.
AI Candidate Recommendations
The model ranks the best-fit workers for every shift by availability, reliability, and staffing history. Your coordinator approves the assignment. 40 shifts shortlisted in 90 seconds, not four hours.
No-Show Prediction
The model flags at-risk shifts 24 hours out based on worker patterns, weather, distance, and shift history. You backfill before the client notices.
AI Timesheet Exceptions
Auto-surfaces edits, overtime risk, GPS mismatches, and anomalies for review. Approve clean timesheets in minutes, not hours.
AI Report Builder
Ask for a report in plain English. Get a chart and table out, saved to your dashboard. Fill rate by client, time-to-fill by role, cancellation trends — whatever you need.
Geofence + Selfie Clock-In
Workers clock in from the venue, not from bed. Geofenced check-in with selfie verification on the mobile app. You know who's actually on-site.
Demand Forecasting
See which markets and roles are about to spike based on your client pipeline and seasonal patterns. Hire ahead of the curve.
Different verticals break in different ways.
The software knows the difference.
Event staffing runs on same-week turnarounds. Industrial runs on rotating shift patterns. Blue-collar runs on certifications and geography. One platform, six verticals, configurations that fit the work.
Same-week builds. Day-of fires. One platform that holds both.
Event staffing lives and dies on the backfill. When someone drops the day before a 40-person activation, you need the software to solve it, not the software to send you a Slack notification.
- checkSame-week scheduling with lead times as short as 2–3 days
- checkUniform, call time, and venue details pushed to workers automatically
- checkBackfill suggestions rank workers by proximity and confirmed availability
- checkClient Hub with real-time roster visibility and shift changes
- checkGeofenced check-in, check-out, and selfie verification on the worker app
- checkPost-event invoicing generated from approved timesheets
Certifications, W-2 workers, and margins that don't break.
Blue-collar staffing is a coverage-first business. The software makes sure the person showing up has the cert, the reliability score, and the history to hold up on a client site.
- checkCertification visibility on the employee profile
- checkBuilt for agencies running W-2 workers
- checkPer-client bill rates and worker pay rates configured per role
- checkReliability scores and staffing metrics per employee
- checkGeofence clock-in so you know who's actually on-site
- checkBulk employee import from spreadsheet, not one candidate at a time
Warehouse and manufacturing run on rotation. The software keeps up.
Industrial staffing is a volume game. 200 workers across 3 shifts, 6 days a week, rotating every two weeks. Spreadsheets can't hold it. TempGuru can.
- checkMulti-shift scheduling for rotating, fixed, and split patterns
- checkHeadcount visibility against client coverage targets
- checkAI exception flagging on overtime risk and timesheet anomalies
- checkReliability scores surface your best-performing workers per site
- checkAdvanced reporting on fill rate, time-to-fill, and cancellation trends
- checkBulk employee import for seasonal ramps
One platform for hospitality, retail, customer service, seasonal.
If you staff multiple verticals, you've been running multiple systems. TempGuru is the one platform that holds all of them without forcing a single workflow on the whole operation.
- checkConfigurable job categories per vertical, per client
- checkDayparting and shift splits for food service and retail
- checkClient-specific training and uniform requirements tracked per job
- checkMulti-location scheduling with staff filtered by role and availability
- checkSeasonal surge planning with demand forecasting

Everything you need to run staffing.
Nothing you don't.
TempGuru is the operational layer. Scheduling, dispatch, timesheets, invoicing, client hub. Your payroll provider and insurance carrier stay where they are.
Built for operators.
Not for procurement slides.
Legacy ATS software was built for permanent placement, not shift-based work. Gig apps were built to treat workers as inventory. Neither fits how staffing agencies actually run.
| Capability | TempGuru | Legacy ATS | Gig Apps |
|---|---|---|---|
| Built for shift-based work | check | close | check |
| AI recommendations & no-show prediction | check | close | close |
| Your agency, your brand, your roster | check | check | close |
| White-label Client Hub with custom domain | check | close | close |

Pro replaces your staffing stack.
At a fraction of the cost.
What a mid-size agency typically pays today for the tools Pro replaces. Sample: 3 admins, 50 staff, 5 clients, moderate SMS usage.
Numbers reflect published public pricing for typical staffing ATS, scheduling, time tracking, client portal, and e-signature tools in 2026.
Three plans. One platform.
Pick what fits.
Essentials is the full staffing platform. Pro adds Client Hub, staff portal, mobile time clock, AI scheduling, and contract e-signature. Scale is for enterprise operators.
Scheduling, timesheets, invoicing, employee management. Everything you need to run the operation.
Everything in Essentials, plus Client Hub, staff portal, geofence time clock, AI scheduling, AI report builder, and contract e-signature.

Questions staffing agencies ask.
01Is TempGuru only for event staffing agencies? addremove
No. TempGuru came out of event staffing, which is why the event workflows are the most mature. The platform is used by agencies in blue-collar, industrial, general, and hospitality staffing. The core workflows (scheduling, dispatch, timesheets, invoicing, client hub) apply to any shift-based staffing model.
02How does the AI actually work? addremove
The models are trained on staffing operations data: shift history, worker patterns, no-show signals, certifications, and client preferences. Candidate recommendations surface and rank the best-fit workers for every shift by availability, reliability, and staffing history. Your coordinator approves every assignment. No-show prediction flags at-risk workers 24 hours before the shift. It's decision support, not automation.
03Is my data used to train the AI for other agencies? addremove
No. Your roster, your client data, and your operational data stay yours. The models are trained on aggregated, anonymized patterns, not on identifiable agency data. Full data portability. If you leave, you take everything with you.
04Does TempGuru handle payroll or insurance? addremove
No. TempGuru is software for your staffing agency. Payroll, workers' comp, general liability, and W-2 tax filings stay with you or your existing provider. We handle the operational layer: scheduling, dispatch, timesheets, invoicing, and client hub. That separation is intentional. You keep control of the money and the insurance, we handle the software that sits between.
05Can we keep our own branding with clients and workers? addremove
Yes, on Pro and Scale. White-labeled Client Hub with your logo and custom domain (e.g. clients.youragency.com). Staff portal and mobile app inherit your agency branding. Essentials uses TempGuru-branded portals.
06How long does implementation take? addremove
The portal goes live in one week. Roster migration, client setup, pay and bill rate configuration. You run your first job on TempGuru in week two. The AI playbook (candidate recommendations, no-show prediction, demand forecasting) tunes to your operation over the next four to six weeks as the models learn your workers, clients, and shift patterns.
07Does TempGuru integrate with QuickBooks or other tools? addremove
QuickBooks sync is included on Pro and Scale. Webhooks and full API access are Scale-only. HRIS integrations and custom accounting setups are part of Scale onboarding. Talk to us about specifics during the demo.
08How is TempGuru different from gig apps? addremove
Gig apps treat workers as 1099 independent contractors and sell the workforce as inventory to clients directly. TempGuru is software for your staffing agency. You keep the client relationship. You keep the worker relationship. You run the employer model you already run. You own the brand.
