The #1 rated resource management software for professional services
About us
Float is is the #1 resource management software for modern delivery teams, founded in 2011 and now trusted by 4,500+ of the world’s leading agencies, consultancies, and in-house studios—including M&C Saatchi, Instrument, Mother, Ogilvy, Google Brand Studio Creative, and Airbnb. Our customers have voted us #1 on G2 for six consecutive quarters because we solve one of their key needs: putting the right people (not just the available ones) in the right roles, on the right projects, at the right time. Float gives Ops Leaders and Resource Managers a clear visual of who’s working on what, whether delivery’s on track, and how to take on what’s next. Other tools may focus on what’s being delivered, but we focus on who’s delivering it—because matching the best-fit people to the right work is an organisation’s true competitive advantage. Internally, we work with the same intent. We’re a fully remote, async-first team working across 22 countries. We hire and pay based on talent, not location. We support flexible work and seek growth with equitable perks and benefits. Independent, profitable, and growing for the past 15 years, Float is part of the 3% of B Corps in SaaS. We’re modernizing resource management and building a sustainable future of remote work.

Lucky #7 🎲 That’s SEVEN straight seasons as the #1 resource management software on G2. At this point, it might be more than luck. Here’s what’s behind the streak: → 192 Resource Management badges since Fall 2024 → #1 in Mid-Market Europe and EMEA, all seasons since Fall 2024 → #1 Easiest to implement at the enterprise level, five seasons running → Picked up the (brand new) Enterprise ROI badge in Resource Management → 36 badges in Time Tracking for Summer 2026 …but hey, who’s counting. Our customers, that’s who! Thank you to everyone who reviewed us this season. These badges are yours as much as ours.

"Resource_Capacity_Master_FINAL_v3_DO_NOT_TOUCH.xlsx" We’ve all been there 🫣 William Gordon from our team put words to a problem we hear every single day, and it’s exactly why we built Float’s Finance and People Operations Dashboards. Real-time visibility into utilization, revenue, and margin shouldn’t require a Tuesday afternoon of reformatting. What’s your spreadsheet horror story? Let us know in the comments 👇
If you've ever done resource planning in Excel, you know this file. It has a name like "Resource_Capacity_Master_FINAL_v3_UPDATED_DO_NOT_TOUCH.xlsx" And there's a tab that says "DO NOT TOUCH" that everyone has touched. It works. Until it doesn't. The teams I speak with every day are brilliant. They've built incredibly sophisticated systems in spreadsheets just to answer questions like: Who's over capacity this month? Are we on track to hit margin? Which clients are driving the most revenue? But the answers are always a few hours of manual work away. And by the time the report is ready, something's already changed. That's exactly the problem Float.com's new Finance and People Operations Dashboards were built to solve. In one view, leadership can now see delivery capacity, utilization, revenue, costs, and margin. Not at the end of the quarter. Not after someone exports and reformats a spreadsheet. Right now, in real time. Your weekly planning meeting just got a whole lot easier 😉

🔥 Introducing Float’s project finance & people operations dashboards. (Hint: sound on for the full effect) Most tools report on what happened after delivery is done. Float Dashboards show you what’s happening while there’s still time to act. Finance and Operations teams now get a shared, live view of delivery health: margin, revenue, costs, utilization, and capacity, built directly from your active schedule. Same signals at the same time, without waiting for someone to pull a report. Now live for Admins and Account owners on Pro & Enterprise.

What’s changing the billable hour model—and what do you do when it fully breaks? Our CEO Glenn Rogers reflects on a few recent operational problems (but we like to think of them as opportunities) in this month’s issue of The 0.5%. 2min read. Take a look 👇

Our CEO Glenn Rogers just shared his take on where professional services is heading—and the operational gap it’s creating. Worth a read 👇 We’re curious: where does margin slip first in your business today?
Some of the smartest independent agencies I've spoken with this year are quietly expanding on the billable-hours model. They're building AI-powered products for their clients. Pairing product fees with services and turning their deep expertise into recurring revenue. And no, the billable hour ain't going away. The best creatives I know have never been in more demand. AI is amplifying their output, not replacing it. But this creates a genuine operational problem: how do you forecast margin when running a hybrid product-and-services business? When you’re investing non-billable hours in a product today that earns subscription revenue six months from now? Most operations teams I speak to are patching together data from spreadsheets, ERPs, and other internal systems to answer that question. Next week, we're launching operational and finance dashboards in Float.com. They pull in real-time delivery margin, effective billable rates, utilization, and contractor mix, so the folks running the business can see what's happening while they can still do something about it. I'll drop the link when it's live.

Resource managers, Float was originally built for you. Now CFOs, COOs, and Ops Directors have a reason to log in too 👀 Because “are we profitable?” and “can we take on more work?” shouldn’t be answered after the fact. Coming soon: two new dashboards. → The Project finance dashboard shows finance leaders delivery margin, costs, and bill rates before the period closes. → Its companion, the People operations dashboard, provides ops leaders with a summarized view of capacity, utilization, and time off before your delivery takes a hit. You still own the schedule. That’s where it all starts. But now, Ops and Finance can see exactly how resourcing decisions impact the bottom line — while there’s still time to act. More soon.

We love seeing this energy from our team 🙌 What started as one person's enthusiasm turned into Float's first-ever Hackathon and the results blew us away. That's what happens when you trust your people and give them space to build. Proud of everyone who made it happen 🤩
A few months into Float I naturally thought "wow, what a talent pool, why not throw a Hackathon and see where we land." My enthusiasm somehow earned the team's trust fast and before I knew it we were kicking off Float's first ever Hackathon, "First Spark", during our annual meetup in Sydney. Things escalated quickly. We received double the projects I expected. The team shipped solutions to actual customers during the Hackathon and we saw innovations no one could have predicted. If you want to know how the sparks flew, you can read all about it in the post on the Float Blog - https://lnkd.in/ezeEXkAC Shout out to all my hackathon friends. If you've ever been part of one of my hackathons, throw me a 👍, I'd love to know you're out there still creating greatness.

Somewhere between spring break, regional leave, and school holidays, did your schedule become...this? 😅 If you're not already tracking time off in Float, consider this your sign. Custom time off types, approval workflows, and auto-assigned regional holidays mean you can find the person who's actually available.
