Ando, the AI infrastructure company modernizing the global hourly workforce, has assembled a world-class advisory board featuring former Panera CEO Niren Chaudhary, Obama 2012 campaign manager Jim Messina, ex-Lyft policy leader Loni Mahanta, Microsoft Global CTO Andy Mutz, and early Google engineering leader Adam Sah.
The advisory group brings unmatched experience in scaling iconic brands, shaping national labor policy, building global AI infrastructure, and driving operational excellence at massive scale.
"Ando exists because this system is failing both sides," said Paul Wellons, Founder and CEO of Ando. "AI is reshaping every part of operations, but the frontline workforce has been left behind. Ando uses AI to create stability for workers and precision for operators. Our goal is simple: give workers schedules they can depend on and give operators the clarity they need to run their businesses."
The advisors will guide Ando in product strategy, policy navigation, enterprise go-to-market, and technical architecture as it scales its AI infrastructure across retail, hospitality, healthcare, and beyond.
Ando is building the world's first AI infrastructure for the global hourly workforce, addressing one of the largest challenges in the hourly economy: matching the right people to the right shifts at the right time. By providing highly accurate demand forecasting and intelligent staffing tools, Ando helps businesses reduce turnover, eliminate labor waste, and give workers schedules they can depend on. Ando is purpose-built for the hourly W2 workforce, supporting employees and the managers who schedule them.
