@mateusz_szymkowicz1 Let us know what you think as you continue to use it!
@Contra Gave me the freelancing opportunity I always wished. Doesn't matter if you are a newcomer or a $$ high profile, the team makes sure opportunities are given to everyone. Thank you!

@alexandru_kollo Love to hear this!
I love how easy Contra makes it to show my work and get paid—finally a platform that actually gets freelancers. I’m so excited to make my job search 100x easier with this!

The future is Indy
I am writing this review not to critique the overall concept or the product itself, but to share my 2 cents on the V1 features.
Indy, as a product and idea, is revolutionary. Here are my thoughts on its functionality as it stands today:
First, when installing the Chrome extension, the auto-open feature to connect X and LinkedIn feels forced, which might lead users to uninstall the extension immediately. Instead, it would be better to display a 'launching' status to reduce the likelihood of users removing it right away.
Second, I would appreciate the addition of an option to manually log in or verify accounts. This is important for those managing multiple accounts that may not be relevant for this purpose.
I'd love to connect and contribute directly to the growth of Indy as a product.
Here's what left me speechless about Contra:
1. Excellent Name Choice: "Indy" is catchy, easy to remember, and feels personal.
2. Strong Use Case: I have reviewed and helped scale multiple products in the same domain, but Contra stands out. Its focus on being a community-oriented, commission-free payment platform for freelancers who are actively seeking relevant opportunities & doing so using their existing network is an extremely intelligent and strategic move.
I am currently testing the application as a user and will continue to update everything here.

@supreethere That would be awesome !
I can't wait to try this out, the job system is already broken
This is just to show how important our network will be
If I have good network it will be good to benefit from them

@paul_chukwuebuka Very true! The really cool part is that we do not just share opportunities from your first degree network but also their connections - so your 2nd and 3rd degree networks!
I tried this bot, and it’s surprisingly effective at finding real job opportunities at one place. 👌👍👉
