Seasoned is a San Francisco-based technology company offering a mobile app platform that connects service industry workers—such as cooks, servers, and dishwashers—with local restaurant jobs while providing a supportive community network.[1][2][3][4] It serves hospitality workers and businesses facing high turnover and hiring challenges, solving pain points like slow recruitment and high costs by enabling hires in as little as 24 hours at 60-70% lower costs than traditional methods.[2][4] Backed by TPG Growth with $12 million in total funding across two rounds, Seasoned has demonstrated growth through expansions like its 2021 Dallas launch after testing with tens of thousands of users and thousands of local restaurants.[1][2]
Seasoned was founded around 2017-2020 and is headquartered at 233 Post St Ste 500 in San Francisco, California.[1][2] The idea emerged from recognizing the struggles of food service professionals who cook and serve all day but face difficulties finding opportunities, constant turnover, and recruitment inefficiencies for employers.[3] Early traction built through platform testing, leading to expansions such as the next-generation hiring tools launch in Dallas-Fort Worth in January 2021, where it already had tens of thousands of users and thousands of restaurant partners.[2] As a TPG Growth-funded company with reported revenue of $9.5 million and 50-200 employees, it has evolved into a dual app ecosystem: one for workers to find jobs and community, and another for recruiters.[1][2][4]
Seasoned rides the gig economy and hospitality recovery trends post-pandemic, addressing chronic labor shortages and 100%+ annual turnover rates in restaurants through localized, mobile-first recruitment tech.[1][3] Timing aligns with rising demand for specialized platforms amid market forces like urban food service growth, remote hiring needs, and cost pressures on small businesses, positioning it favorably in the $9.5 million revenue-generating mobile app development space.[2] It influences the ecosystem by reducing barriers for underserved workers, improving retention via community features, and enabling scalable hiring for operators, potentially expanding to more U.S. cities beyond San Francisco and Dallas.[2][4]
Seasoned is poised for national scaling by leveraging its funding, tech stack, and validated model in high-turnover markets, with potential to integrate AI for matching or expand into adjacent sectors like events and hotels.[1][2] Trends like labor market tightness and app-based gig work will propel growth, evolving its influence from regional disruptor to essential hospitality HR tool. This community-driven approach, born from real industry pain, positions it to sustain momentum in a fragmented hiring landscape.
