Vork is a mental health wellness software to help managers and employees analyze and combat job burnout. Managers can increase their team's mental wellness by using Vork to manage and assess their team's job burnout.
Vork integrates with the user's work calendar (currently Google Calendar), task management system (i.e. Notion, Jira, Trello, etc.), Slack, Email, and other work tools to analyze their day (assigned tasks, meetings, etc.) for job burnout and suggest ways to structure their day to keep job burnout low.
Abbas Safdari is the co-founder of Vork and an entrepreneur at heart and has started other ventures in the past. He met his current founder through Y- Combinator platform where they both realized the issues burnout can have not only on employee well beings but for the company as well.
