“Can a healthcare staffing marketplace own the financial rails for gig-economy clinical workers by embedding instant pay and scheduling into a single platform?”
Clipboard Health operates as an app-based marketplace connecting healthcare workers (CNAs, LVNs, RNs, therapists, CHHAs) with short-staffed healthcare facilities for per-diem shift booking. The platform's embedded finance angle centers on instant worker payouts — workers can receive pay immediately after completing a shift for a small fee, or wait a few days for free. This earned wage access / instant pay model is a key worker retention tool embedded directly in the shift-booking flow.
Clipboard processes payments through Stripe.
Clipboard was founded by Wei Deng and is headquartered in San Francisco, CA, USA.
Clipboard has raised $80M+ in total (latest round: Series C, 2022; valuation: $1.3B post-money (2022)).
