Healthcare's workforce runs on broken infrastructure. Not because people aren't trying - but because the foundational data is fragmented.
While every other major industry has unified workforce intelligence, healthcare lags behind. Recruiters search for nurses on LinkedIn where nurses don't exist. Credentialing takes months because verification isn't connected. Scheduling tools don't understand qualifications. Planning happens in spreadsheets.
The problem isn't the tools - it's what's underneath them. The healthcare workforce has no comprehensive provider intelligence. No unified view of who's qualified, where they are, or how they move through their careers. Every system and decision built on this gap is limited.
For the past months, we've been building what should exist: Pickle Graph, the foundational data infrastructure for healthcare's workforce. We've aggregated 15+ verified healthcare professional data profiles with credentials, specialties, and career intelligence. This is the platform that every workforce product should be built on.
We're launching with Pickle IQ, our sourcing intelligence product, because that's where the missing infrastructure hurts most. Healthcare recruiters finally have comprehensive and context-rich clinician data. They're finding qualified candidates in days instead of months. Response rates are 2-3x higher. Candidate pipelines are increasing by 5x.
But sourcing is just the beginning. We're building a complete workforce operating system.
The same foundational data that powers sourcing will power recruiting operations. Credentialing and compliance. Workforce scheduling and deployment. Strategic planning and forecasting.
Each capability built on Pickle Graph. Each one working better because they share the same intelligent foundation.
Pickle is an integrated platform built on unified data from day one.
We're a team of workforce operators, healthcare leaders, and data experts. We've lived this problem. We know what's broken and why. We've spent years in patient care, recruiting, and workforce strategy and operations. We understand the data infrastructure needed to make it work.
Healthcare is America's largest and most essential workforce. 20 million people work tirelessly to keep our system running. They deserve better infrastructure than broken tools built on missing data.
Better infrastructure means better hiring decisions. Faster credentialing. Smarter scheduling. Proactive planning. Less waste. Less burnout. Better patient care.
This isn't just software. It's the foundational system that healthcare's workforce management should run on.
Better data. Better decisions. Better healthcare.
