Approach
Most freelance platforms optimize for the buyer. TELOS inverts that: the AI agent works for the freelancer, continually analyzing marketplace signals, matching them to the right jobs, coaching them on proposals, and reverse-engineering what makes top-earners win. It's a long-term career copilot, not a job board.
Problem
Freelancers on Fiverr/Upwork hit a ceiling because the platforms are designed to match clients to sellers, not to make sellers better. There's no coaching, no analytics, no way to systematically improve conversion.
How I built it
- ▸AI job-matching engine weighting freelancer strengths against live listings.
- ▸Performance analytics dashboard tracking win rate, response time, rating.
- ▸Intelligent growth coaching via chat — specific, personalised next-step suggestions.
- ▸Reverse-engineering tools that analyse top-performer profiles and proposals.
Outcome
