What This Growth Signals
Companies Are Preparing for 2026
Organizations are actively researching and vetting flexible talent solutions before the new year. They're not waiting—they're building their workforce cloud now.
Market Disruptions Drive Adoption
Layoffs and unsuccessful AI implementations are pushing companies toward flexible workforce solutions. When permanent headcount becomes risky, flexibility becomes essential.
