Contra is where the world’s best companies scale their flexible teams. The all-in-one platform to source, manage and pay freelance, contract and fractional talent.
I could not be more excited about this product and the impact it will have on companies and freelancers alike. I’ve been on all sides - hiring flexible talent in both an agency and startup setting, and I was a freelancer myself. Based on those experiences, I can honestly say that Contra for Companies is going to shake up the flexible talent world in a major (and fantastic) way.
Saying goodbye to disjointed spreadsheets, slack threads, and manual expense entries is going to make it so much easier for all of us - both freelancers and those who hire them - to do more amazing work.
What I love most about Contra is that it creates a space for companies and flexible talent to work together in a way that we all enjoy and feel proud of, while also enabling everyone to scale. I wish I’d had Contra for Companies 10 years ago, and I’m so happy to share its impact with the world now!
@meagan_sweigart "What I love most about Contra is that it creates a space for companies and flexible talent to work together in a way that we all enjoy and feel proud of" - gosh I love this and could not agree more!

I'm very excited about this feature and can't wait to get my company setup with Contra! It's been such a great experience getting started with Contra and now that I've grown into a company, it'll be great to have a place to professionally showcase my work as my company
@brendan_f So excited that Contra has the tools to support you and your growth as a company! 🚀 Can't wait for you to experience all of the new features!
A huge day for Contra as we celebrate our 3 year anniversary. We’re excited to announce the launch of Contra for Companies, the platform every scaling organization needs to source, manage and pay your shared network of freelancers and contractors.
I, like many, have felt the pain of not having a reliable, flexible talent pool to tap into when a specific project may arise. Trying (unsuccessfully) to keep track of projects and budgets in spreadsheets across our team is tough. And lastly, it’s been a struggle at previous companies with internal processes and limitations to hire the right person compliantly and quickly. Well, that’s in the past now thanks to Contra.
We believe in the power of a flexible and skills-based talent network. It’ll save you money, allow you take on projects you didn’t think were possible, and get you one step closer to achieving your team goals. It just works better with Contra. We’re excited for the future, and hope you’ll check it out.
Super excited to announce the launch of Contra for Companies!
With Contra for Companies, teams can now scale and move fast like never before. Contra streamlines the entire process of sourcing, managing, and paying freelance talent—an all-in-one solution.
Contra is carving a new path for flexible hiring, and we're excited to have companies join us on this journey! A huge thank you to everyone who has supported Contra over the years!

Contra is truly the all-in-one platform to source, manage, and pay freelancers with ease–we’re bridging the gap between companies and the incredible, flexible talent they need to scale.

@livijblove Really would love to see an app for iOS! I absolutely love the desktop layout... but would be so cool to have a dedicated app on my phone, especially for prompt notifications of when clients message & I can message them on the app, jobs are matched, ro to make quick profile edits or project uploads on the go! I know it'd have awesome features and a great UI!
@ken_shew_jr_ OOOOhh, I love the vision you have to make Contra mobile! 📱 You never know what is coming next 😉
