Introductory paragraph

At Sona, we’re building the ‘self-driving car’ of workforce management software for the frontline, a huge and underserved group of industries. Our all-in-one platform is built primarily in Elixir and LiveView (with a React Native mobile app) and combines everything companies need to manage a front-line team with dedicated features designed to empower their staff.

About us

My name: Patrick Wild
My position: Head of Talent
Company name: Sona
Company website: getsona.com
Company headquarters (country): UK
Company info and history:

3 billion people across the world work in frontline jobs. Yet, despite rising costs and staff shortages, frontline organisations are still left to choose between paper, Excel, and WhatsApp, or decade-old workforce management solutions to take care of the most important part of their businesses - their people.

Enter Sona: the next generation of AI-native, frontline workforce management. We’ve built an end-to-end platform covering Scheduling, HR, Payroll, and Communications that gives the largest frontline organisations everything they need to staff more intelligently and empower their teams.

In under 4 years, we’ve already made a deep impact on the lives of over 100k frontline workers and the operation of their organisations, grown the team to 110+, and secured over $50M in funding from notable VC’s, including Felicis, Northzone, Gradient Ventures (Google), SpeedInvest, Antler, and Notion Capital, plus notable angels like Tom Blomfield (Monzo).

We’ve used Elixir since day one with a stack built primarily around Elixir, with a Phoenix LiveView web frontend (PETAL stack) and a GraphQL API for communicating with our React Native mobile app.
