The Relay Hybrid Work Model
Our hybrid work model is elegantly simple: we all gather in the office three days a week; Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. These purposeful in-person days in a thoughtfully designed office help us do our best work and harness the power of collaboration and innovation.

What We Do
Software powers the workforce...except for 55 million members who aren’t given access to a communication tool or rely on a walkie-talkie. With expense, the active nature of their jobs and guest interaction rendering a smartphone impractical, this subset of the workforce is often completely disconnected - not only from one another, but from critical information that could improve their efficiency and positively impact the bottom line of the companies that employ them.
