Jolly, a NYC-based workforce optimization platform, raised $16.5M in Series A funding.
The round was led by Zach Kirkhorn, former CFO of Tesla, who will join the company’s Board, with participation from angel investors Gokul Rajaram, Julien Codorniou, Steve Luczo, and David Marcus, and institutional support from Bullpen Capital, Dorm Room Fund, Eigen Ventures, among others.
The company intends to use the funds to expand its product suite and scale into new verticals.
Led by Dean Zimberg, Founder and CEO, Jolly gives employees an opportunity to Earn Points at Work™. The platform incentivizes actions that are value-accretive to the business such as picking up extra shifts or showing up on time. Incentives are fully customizable while points are dispatched autonomously based on objective work data. Ultimately, the points can be used on gift cards or other high-value items.
Jolly is already working with over 100 frontline employers across the United States and has over 30,000 essential workers using the platform.
