We're currently accepting closed beta testers. We're a platform designed to create teams with freelancers. Our mission is to make freelancing easy as possible, through team collaboration and specialization.
- sharemywin 9y agonice hijacking the thread.
- yellowapple 9y agoI fail to see how providing exactly what the thread requested counts as "hijacking".
- sharemywin 9y agoI offer the same service... versus adding some value. - challenges they ran into - it's working for them or not. it's just a blatant ad.
- tapasfr 9y agoI signed up. Are there any early incentives for signing up early?
- tpae 9y agoThank you :) We currently don't offer any early incentives, since we're going to be a free service. If you are selected for our closed beta, you will receive recognition within our platform as early user. Details coming soon!
- tootie 9y agoI've seen at least one other that I won't link because I know the founders and they are dishonest and slightly insane. Suffice it to say, there is a burgeoning market for this service.
- tpae 9y agoWe started this service because we felt a strong need for it. As a software engineer working in Bay Area, I've always wanted to freelance because it's too much of a burden living here. I've thought about applying to remote jobs, but freelancing feels like it has more freedom. We have a strong mission, and we want to make it easy and accessible for anyone that wants to become a freelancer. The answer is through teams, with specialization, collaboration, and having that comparative advantage will allow teams to thrive.
- scribu 9y agoI looked at the website and I couldn't figure out what you actually offer. Is it just a way to organize a team of freelancers? Or do you also provide client leads?
- tpae 9y agoYes. During our beta, we will focus on organizing teams. Our platform will have emphasis on matchmaking, with enhanced personal profiles to make it easier to find/join teams. We will be introducing client leads when we officially launch, it will become a marketplace to showcase teams with projects. The bigger picture is to allow teams to "grow together" which is to showcase the work they've done together as a team. We want to have team-based portfolios to make hiring choices easier for companies. We feel synergy is an essential part of effective teams, and we are putting a lot of emphasis on showing that.
- _ar7 9y ago* Why do I have to download an 8MB payload on load, most of which consists of 1MB+ PNGs, which aren't even visible until I scroll? * Why are you doing some unintuitive scroll-jacking? * Why are you using React for literally a single scrollable page? * Why are you putting the scroll position into the URL instead of somewhere like local storage? It's annoying that I can't even leave the page without pressing back multiple times. ugh
- tpae 9y agoThank you for the awesome feedback. :-) I am sorry if it frustrated you. Sorry about the mega payload. I was still in process of optimizing it when this thread came out 5am this morning (I saw it during my morning jog). I knew we had to get this out there ASAP. Scroll-jacking is annoying, I know. I'm in the process of fixing it. I think we need to optimize our designs first. I'm using React with next.js, which makes deployment + development super simple. The point of scroll position was for URL shortcuts, sorry about that! I'll disable the history and maybe that will make things better.
