Good luck, there is a new “we are fixing freelancing” startup coming out every week. Unless you’ve actually been freelancing for years on multiple platforms + actually worked in Core Ops within those networks + worked in traditional recruitment - you’re clueless about what the actual problems are.

This shit is HARD. Getting clients and devs to sign up for yet another service is HARD. Having a shitty landing page expecting people will sign up with NO clear USP to the talent is just a waste of time.

This is coming from someone who has built and sold several of these services in the past 5 years.

Thank you for the luck. We truly have a new model and the landing page is intentionally vague at this point of time. We'll slowly add more concrete content that explains what we are doing differently and why. I hope you will keep a tab. Could I have a look at some of the services you've built and sold?
