Guides

We built a scoring engine that reads freelance job posts for a living. These are the patterns it looks for, written out plainly — so they are useful whether or not you ever run a post through it.

  Fourteen patterns that reliably predict an unprofitable project — what each one looks like in the wild, why it costs what it costs, and the question that settles it before you write a proposal.
