LinkedInThe seed round was led by Ada Ventures, Active Partners and Portfolio Ventures to support platform growth and tool development.
"The legal world is experiencing its own watershed moment. AI is completely redrawing who can access justice – but ordinary people are being left behind. We’re flipping this on its head by putting powerful, tailor-made legal tools directly into workers’ hands, not just those with deep pockets."
Fuel Ventures led the pre-seed round, which will fund product development, marketing, and team expansion.
"We’re looking forward to working with Theo, the founder of Slinger, a platform that addresses the UK’s hospitality worker shortage by connecting the UK’s 10.3 million frontline workers to Living Wage opportunities."
The pre-seed round was backed by Bethnal Green Ventures, Resolution Foundation and Ufi Ventures.
"The chronic skills shortage across all skilled trades presents a huge economic opportunity that is currently being missed due to a lack of visibility and outdated gender norms. We are delighted that Bethnal Green Ventures, Resolution Foundation and Ufi Ventures have invested in TaskHer to fuel the work we’re doing to tackle these social challenges"
