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.
