About Us

We spent wayyyyyy too much time on UpWork

We faced the hassle of searching and applying for freelance work. So we are building a solution so that you don't.

Our Mission

As previous freelancers, we faced the hassle of searching and applying for freelance work. It was the least rewarding part, specially when we were sure we were the right person for the job. We believe in a world in which people don't need to spend 50% of their time selling themselves to get a job, but rather do the job.
