Freelance platforms are broken.

If you've used other platforms, you already know. Here's what we're fixing.

Scams everywhere

1 in 3 gig platform users report being victims of fraud. Fake jobs harvest your info. Clients vanish after receiving work. And losses hit $501M in 2024 alone.

Every person is video-verified by our team before they can post or apply.

Fees that punish you

Other platforms charge freelancers 10–20% on every dollar earned, plus clients pay an extra 5%. New client relationships get the worst rates.

Free during beta. After that, a small flat fee for freelancers. Clients always free.

Race to the bottom

$5 logos. $50 websites. Boost-your-bid pay-to-play. Quality freelancers get buried under sponsored posts and lowball bids.

No bidding wars. No boosted proposals. Quality proposals surface naturally.

The proposal grind

Pay real money just to apply. Send 50 proposals, hear back from 2, learn nothing from the other 48. Generic spam drowns out thoughtful bids.

Free to apply. AI filters out spam so real proposals get seen.

Power imbalance

Clients leave bad reviews with little accountability. Freelancers can't push back on scope creep. Disputes favor clients by default.

Bilateral reviews. Payment-verified feedback. Fair dispute resolution.

Your reputation is trapped

Years of 5-star reviews locked to one platform. Leave and you start from zero. You build their brand equity, not yours.

Verified credentials you own. Your reputation travels with you.

How TrustWork Works

We do things differently. Every step involves a real human review.

Built by freelancers who got burned.

We've dealt with the fake jobs, the ghosting clients, the 20% fees. TrustWork exists because we needed it ourselves — a platform where every person is real and every payment is protected.
