StaffAny provides companies with a platform that helps boost efficiency. It offers features such as employee scheduling, timesheets, leave application management, and real-time report consolidation. The startup’s founders are alumni from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and the NUS Overseas Colleges program, supported by NUS Enterprise, and incubated at Block71 Singapore.
Eugene Ng, co-founder of StaffAny, said that the company’s solution had logged more than 11 million work hours and helped companies save 350,000 employee hours last year. StaffAny has also updated its platform in 2021, integrating Covid-19 tracking features such as TraceTogether in Singapore and MySejahtera in Malaysia, among others.
Looking forward, StaffAny plans to develop a new product that can help businesses improve employee performance and retain valued employees. It also aims to make new hires and expand beyond Singapore, specifically the Malaysian and Indonesian markets.
The new raise comes after StaffAny picked up US$722,000 in seed funding round in 2019 that saw participation from FreakOut Holdings and angel investors.
