I've always thought union organizing was ripe for some good ol' tech innovation. It seems to be run in such an old school way, right now.

Very cool idea, and seems very flushed out already! Best of luck, and I will let all my friends who complain about unfair working conditions know about this!

Thanks! But I want to emphasize that Organize isn't meant to replace old school organizing. Rather it's meant to expand those proven techniques to a larger audience that can't be served by the limited number of existing organizers (i.e. workplaces too small to attract a professional organizer).

Plus, it's helpful to remember that organizing isn't only for workplaces trying to improve poor conditions. It's also for workplaces with good conditions that want an assurance that the company can't unilaterally take them away! This is something many if us in tech jobs forget until things like layoffs or forced return-to-office give us a reminder.
