The Problem
With over 100 million freelancers worldwide, platforms like Upwork face challenges in fair pricing, optimal job posting, and avoiding scams. Clients often rely on guesswork, struggling to balance competitive pay with hiring quality talent. This leads to underwhelming engagement, inefficiency, and missed opportunities
The Concept
FreeFlex is a dynamic data product designed to guide clients in setting fair rates, identifying optimal job posting times, and understanding market trends. It offers an intuitive interface with clear visualizations, helping clients make data-driven decisions and maximize freelancer engagement.
The Technology
FreeFlex analyses large datasets of freelance job listings, using statistical modelling and time series forecasting (ARIMA) to deliver four key insights:
• Pricing strategy guidance across experience levels • Optimal job posting times • Market forecasts for seasonal demand • Global job distribution heatmaps
