How it works
What you get at launch

VETTED AI AGENCIES COMPETE FOR YOUR BUILD.

You post once. Several agencies bid. You see what each one has really built before you decide.

Vetted agencies

(01) / 04

EVERY AGENCY IS VETTED FIRST

Agencies prove real work before they can bid. We run the first filter, so you do not have to.

Competing bids

(02) / 04

ONE POST. SEVERAL REAL BIDS.

Describe your build once. Agencies come to you with a price and a track record, side by side.

Fair pricing

(03) / 04

KNOW WHAT IT SHOULD COST

At launch you will see an estimated price range for your brief before the first bid lands, so you are never guessing.

YOU CHOOSE WHO BUILDS

Nobody gets assigned to you. Pick the team whose track record fits your startup.

Why it is different

WHAT YOU GET

One marketplace, two sides. What changes for each.

For businesses

NO MORE HIRING FROM A SALES DECK.

Today you pick one agency from its best portfolio and find out later who actually does the work. Here, several vetted agencies bid on your project, you compare what each has really built, and you choose.

  • — Competing bids, not one pitch
  • — You choose the agency. Nobody is assigned to you
  • — At launch, payment sits in escrow until you approve the work
For agencies

WIN WORK ON PROOF, NOT AD SPEND.

Entry is earned with real, verified work, not bought with ads or credits. You bid inside a small roster, against agencies rather than bots, and the first agencies in get founding status.

  • — A verified track record decides who gets in, not ad budget
  • — Bid inside a small, vetted roster, not against thousands
  • — Founding member status for the first agencies in
How it will work

AT LAUNCH

Both sides, start to finish.

For businesses
01
Post your project
Describe what you need in plain language. No fixed price required. Set requirements like specialty, minimum agency tier, and portfolio, and add an optional budget bracket.
02
See what it should cost
Before bids arrive you will see an estimated price range for your brief, so you post already knowing the ballpark rather than guessing.
03
Vetted agencies bid
Only agencies that passed vetting and meet your requirements can bid. Every bid shows that agency’s real track record, so you compare proof instead of polish.
04
Choose, then pay on approval
Compare the bids, pick your agency, and fund the contract into escrow. Payment releases only when you approve the finished work.
For agencies
01
Prove your work
Merit based entry: a real, verified review of your track record. No paying for credits, no buying your way to the top of the list.
02
Browse the contract board
Filter open contracts by specialty, payment type, and budget bracket. Every posting comes from a verified business with a real need.
03
Submit a bid that gets read
You compete inside a small, vetted roster, not against thousands of bots. Your proposal and track record win the work, not the lowest price.
04
Deliver and get paid
Work through the platform with escrow behind you. Payment releases on approved milestones, so the protection runs both ways.
