Workerhero was founded in 2021 by Richard Fischer, Steven Miller, Michael K\u00f6nig, and Emanuel Wernitz to address the skills shortage. Using AI-driven sourcing and matching, the platform aims to connect companies with suitable candidates. According to the company, over 70,000 user profiles can currently be found on the platform.
