Learn why Gun.io is the best place for developers to find (and work on) freelance and W2 engagements.

The Gun.io platform

Client Pipeline

Is exclusive.

The companies who hire on our platform have been hand-vetted by our team. We say no to opportunities that don’t meet our standards, and only accept developers who we are confident can get hired on the platform (<12% of applicants, if you’re curious).

Support Team

Treats you like a human, not a resume.

Top applicants meet our developer relations team within a week of signing up. We know you by name and commit to respecting your time during your job search: interviews are short and you’ll always receive feedback promptly.

Earn More

Supports you after you’re hired.

You set your own rates and keep 100% of your earnings. We bill your clients, guarantee your payments, and support you during the engagement. For full-time hires, we make sure your employer has the team they need so you feel supported at your new job.

How it works

A no-BS rundown from Teja, Gun.io's CEO

Teja_Public_Facing

Gun.io has felt the most professional out of all other platforms, with a standout sense of community and culture.

Jason K.

Gun.io Developer

Gun.io's screening and client matching for freelancers gave me the opportunity to work with great clients on great projects. Plus, the admin support allowed me to focus on providing great service, not dealing with admin tasks.

Ben H.

Gun.io Developer

As a freelancer, I don't get paid for my time advertising, vetting clients, and doing admin work. Gun.io makes it far easier to keep my client pipeline full with clients I know have been vetted.
