Show HN: I created a non-money-oriented crowdsourcing alternative for developers
- MikeDaniel 7y agoHey guys. I've been working on this on and off for a few years with a couple of others. It's essentially a model that merges Crowdfunding and Open Source in that it allows people to invest their time & expertise (rather than money) into projects that interest them and collaborate with others on those projects and share the profits between themselves. It's quite cool because it's not really been done before. So as the value of users' contribution grows, tracked by points like sprint/story points and whatnot the proportion of the share of the profits you get increases. We provide all the tools to distribute the money to everyone in a project + project management tools, a peer review system etc. etc. The aim is to enable developers, programmers and engineers (etc.) to create equitable and autonomous projects, keeping money, investors and banks out of your projects so you can focus on collaborating and building without having to quit your job, hire a team, compromise on ambition, deal with investors/investment nor piss around with payment processing and regulations.
