  Fountain is an AI-powered frontline workforce platform that helps
  high-volume employers source, screen, hire, onboard, schedule, and
  retain hourly workers across quick-service restaurants, retail,
  logistics, hospitality, healthcare, manufacturing, grocery, and
  franchise operations. The integrated product suite spans an
  applicant tracking system, candidate CRM, agentic sourcing
  ("Source"), digital onboarding with document collection and
  background-check integrations, shift and scheduling for active
  workers, and an orchestration layer called Cue that automates
  workflows across all products. AI agents Anna (recruiter
  screening), Emma (24/7 candidate support), and Sam (employee
  engagement) sit across the funnel and the post-hire workforce.
  Fountain exposes a versioned REST API at developer.fountain.com
  covering the Hire API (applicants, funnels/openings, stages,
  calendar slots, labels, custom exports, webhooks) and the
  post-hire Worker API (worker profiles, employment records,
  document submissions, I-9 verification, attendance, shifts,
  demands, breaks, and holidays), with authentication via the
  X-ACCESS-TOKEN header on per-tenant base URLs or OAuth 2.0 through
  the unified services.fountain.com hire service base URL for
  partner integrations.
