Fragmented Identities in a
Multi-Platform World

Freelancers spend an average of 13 hours per week looking for new jobs and clients, according to Upwork’s ‘Freelancing in America’ report. One major bottleneck is the time-consuming and often redundant verification processes on various platforms. Even worse, 35% of freelancers have faced at least one instance of not being paid for their work, partly because trust mechanisms are either weak or too fragmented to be reliable

In today's digital age, the average freelancer juggles between 3 to 5 freelancing platforms, each with its own profile and reputation system. This fragmentation makes it difficult to consolidate one's portfolio and credentials, leading to lost opportunities and reduced visibility.

Every freelancer wears multiple hats on a daily basis, including but not limited to being and trying to keep up with
