But what is the difference between your company and Upwork? We need React/Node developers from time to time (depending on new feature requests), and we are using Upwork or other freelance websites usually as we can't have full time remote team, and as for me it was quite fast to find developers there.

Our freelancers are 4 steps pre-vetted (profile check, test task, interview, trial project). On Upwork, you will have to spend your time to cut through the noise of many offers to choose a proper one. And you have to take risks because if you did choose a wrong one, you would lose time and probably money.

it's not like you can guarantee that I will not loose my time and money, or can you?

You save a lot of time in the first instance because you get a reliable freelancer that suits your requirements, without spending time on working through the offers and selecting.

In an unlikely event that you are not happy with a freelancer, you just escalate to us and we resolve it. Again, you don't need to spend your time and extra money in order to resolve it by yourself.

Did I answer your question? Happy to jump on a quick call and discuss!

Also, there might be non-technical founders or you might not be able to test a freelancers even if you are technical, but they have skills that are out of your expertise

I'd love to help you next time you need a freelancer! We provide a trial with 0% commission.
