Anthill develops human resources software that aims to help companies embrace and retain “deskless” workers. If you’re not familiar with that term, it refers to those who don’t have a desk, company computer, phone, or other tools that are typical of office workers. This is a massive base of people (2.7 billion), and Anthill urges companies to take steps to retain them since they have a significant investment in hiring and training. Anthill’s system uses text messaging as a vehicle to communicate more openly and effectively with these workers.
