Show HN: Konsus.com – On-demand freelancers via chat
- SRasch 11y agoHey everyone, co-founder of Konsus.com here I was a big user of old Elance/Odesk for design and data entry in the past, but found myself struggling to find freelancers, and having some mixed experiences with quality. So mrstochastic, my co-founder/CEO and I decided to create Konsus.com, to make it easier to get things done on the internet. We provide on demand freelancers for business, available 24/7 via chat. We're aiming for the mid-price range where (29 USD /hr). We do business tasks: as in design, writing and data. You can see some actual stories and examples of what we've dine under services. If you want see how it works to give feedback, you can do it with no sign-up/risk, just click "Talk to us" and ask for a quote for your project, for example. Look forward to hearing your thoughts!
- lunarain 11y agohow many people working on demand for you?
- SRasch 11y agoWe have at this moment 72 people working with us, but we are growing quite fast and adding more almost every day.
- evolsb 11y agoYou did a great job on my project proposal doc! Where are your designers located? Mostly Europe or around the world?
- sharemywin 11y agoI generally do fix bid on upwork.com. I have experimented lately with hourly but I'm only paying $8 for a developer and $4 for VA and $15 for a telemarketer. Where I could see a possible area is if you focus on project management and requirements gathering and were available during after work hours(5-10PM EST.) And managed projects but passed the lower billing rates on for the actual workers. Although I still want to see portfolios and passed work. Also, I'd want templates and code used to lower costs when possible. Just my 2 cents of what would be valuable to me.
- rgbrgb 11y agoOut of curiosity, what are you paying a developer $8 to do?

- ignaty 11y agoVery good service, comrade. Soviet bless you.
- tahoeskibum 11y agoHow does your service compare to Codementors.io which does similar stuff?
- SRasch 11y agoI am not familiar with this excact one, and there's a coming soon on the url. But in general what seem to differentiate us is - On-demand: someone answers instantly and start working on your project right away. freelancer is instantly matched based on skill and availability. - quality control: we guarantee quality. Ensure this by pre-vetting freelancers and doing quality control on deliverables. Should also say that while there are plenty who do development. Very few specialize in business tasks.
- bkyan 11y agoIs it a random match every time, or could the same freelancer be requested in future rounds, if I am impressed with their work?
- SRasch 11y agoYou can request the same freelancer if you are satisfied with their work, but we cannot guarantee that that person is available or awake at the time. In practice we see most people trust us to do the neccesary quality control, so that they are indifferent as to who performs the task.
