Question 1

What is REWORK.?

Accepted Answer

REWORK. is the trust infrastructure for the remote work economy. We are a verified talent marketplace where every skill is proven through real work, every deliverable is cryptographically verified, and every candidate is genuine. Unlike traditional platforms that rely on self-reported claims and star ratings, we use a proof-of-work verification system that creates unforgeable evidence of actual capabilities. We operate across 35 countries with five products: the Verified Marketplace, Resume Builder, SwitchAsses (AI hiring intelligence), Rating Lab (AI data rating), and Finprob (AI product discovery engine). We serve professionals seeking remote opportunities, employers looking for verified talent, and founders validating product ideas.

Question 2

How is REWORK. different from other platforms?

Accepted Answer

Five fundamental differences set us apart: (1) Proof-of-Work Verification — skills are verified through actual deliverables with cryptographic hashing, not self-reported claims. Submit GitHub repos, HuggingFace models, or portfolio items and get auto-verified instantly. (2) Flat, transparent platform fee — predictable and lower than the 10-20% common on other platforms. (3) Human-in-the-loop AI — our AI assists with matching, career intelligence, and hiring assessments, but humans always make decisions and take actions. (4) Five integrated products — marketplace, resume builder, hiring assessments, AI data rating, and product discovery — all powered by the same trust infrastructure. (5) Global compliance — built-in contractor classification, tax compliance, and jurisdiction-aware onboarding across 35 countries.

Question 3

What does "proof-of-work verification" mean?

Accepted Answer

Proof-of-work verification is our system for cryptographically proving that a professional has actually completed real work in their claimed skill area. Submit evidence through the Proof of Work tool — GitHub repositories, pull requests, HuggingFace models, uploaded files, screenshots, or live project URLs. Each is hashed with SHA-256 and stored as a verifiable digital certificate. Employers can independently verify these certificates using unique identifiers, creating a trust layer that is impossible to fake.

Question 4

What products and tools are available?

Accepted Answer

REWORK. operates five main products: (1) Verified Marketplace — browse and apply to verified job listings with AI-powered matching and escrow-protected payments. (2) Resume Builder — AI-powered resume creation with ATS optimization, professional templates, cover letter generation, interview practice, and PDF/DOCX export. (3) SwitchAsses — AI hiring intelligence engine that evaluates candidates with anti-cheating proctoring, career-specific simulations across 12+ industries, live coding sandboxes, and Hiring Confidence Scores. (4) Rating Lab — rate text, images, audio, and video content for AI training projects with quality-controlled workflows. (5) Finprob — AI product discovery engine that scans 8+ social platforms to surface validated product ideas from real user complaints and frustrations. Additional tools include AI Career Intelligence, Proof of Work verification, Compliance Tools, and Referral Program.

Question 8

What are Trust Tiers and how do they work?

Accepted Answer

Trust Tiers are our four-level badge system that reflects a professional's verified track record: Bronze (completed verification and first verified deliverables), Silver (consistent quality work with positive employer feedback), Gold (significant verified portfolio with high match rate), and Diamond (top-tier professionals with extensive verified work history). Higher tiers unlock better matching priority, premium opportunities, and increased visibility to employers. Progress through tiers by accumulating verified proofs and positive outcomes.

Question 9

Available in Free, Pro ($15/month), and Premium ($40/month) tiers.

Question 10

What is the Resume Builder?

Accepted Answer

The Resume Builder is an AI-powered job application platform. It creates ATS-optimized resumes that auto-import your verified proofs, offers professional templates (Professional, Technical, Creative, Minimal), and exports to PDF and DOCX. Beyond resumes, it includes AI-powered cover letter generation tailored to specific job postings, job fit scoring against descriptions from LinkedIn, Indeed, and Glassdoor, interview practice with AI-driven feedback, and application tracking with a Learning Loop that analyzes your performance every 20 applications to improve your success rate.

Question 11

What is the Rating Lab?

Accepted Answer

The Rating Lab is a platform where professionals earn by rating content for AI training projects. Businesses create rating tasks (text, image, audio, video), and you provide quality human feedback. Rating types include Likert scale, binary, side-by-side comparison, and multi-label classification. Quality is maintained through gold standard checks and rater performance monitoring. You can join multiple concurrent projects and track your work statistics from your dashboard.

Question 12

What are the platform fees?

Accepted Answer

REWORK. uses a flat, transparent transaction fee charged on every payment — with no mandatory monthly fees. Optional premium subscriptions are available: Expert Hub ($39.99/mo) for professionals wanting instant payouts, custom storefronts, and advanced analytics; Business Hub ($99/mo) for companies needing unlimited posts, compliance tools, and SSO. The core marketplace works without any subscription. See the Platform Fee page for current rates.

Question 13

How does the Affiliate Program work?

Accepted Answer

Every professional can apply to join the Affiliate Program after creating an account. Share your unique affiliate link with colleagues and peers — when they sign up and subscribe using your link, you earn recurring commission. Track your conversions, see who joined through your link, and monitor your earnings from the Affiliate dashboard. Earn up to 35% recurring monthly commission on every subscription.

Question 14

How does verified hiring work?

Accepted Answer

Post your job requirements and required skills on the Verified Marketplace. Our AI matching engine analyzes your needs against our database of professionals with cryptographically verified skill portfolios. Receive a curated list of candidates with proven capabilities — each has a trust tier badge, verified work samples, and a proof-of-work portfolio you can independently audit. Use SwitchAsses to evaluate top candidates with anti-cheating proctoring, career-specific simulations, and hiring confidence scores before making offers.

Question 15

What is SwitchAsses?

Accepted Answer

SwitchAsses is our AI hiring intelligence engine designed for honest, data-backed hiring decisions. It evaluates candidates across a 10-pillar assessment system: Hiring Confidence Score, Role-Fit Intelligence, Multi-Career Simulation Engine (covering 12+ industries), Behavioral Signal Analysis, AI-Resistance Index, Regret Minimizer Report, Top Performer Similarity Match, Anti-Cheating Proctoring, Live Coding Sandboxes, and Configurable Assessment Builder. Includes real-world job simulations like email triage, prioritization, and conflict resolution scenarios. Candidate comparison rankings help you make confident hiring decisions based on objective data rather than gut instinct.

Question 16

What are Compliance Tools?

Accepted Answer

Compliance Tools provide contractor classification assessment, tax compliance verification, and jurisdiction-aware onboarding across 35 countries. Supported jurisdictions include the US (W-9, 1099-NEC, AB5 rules), UK (IR35, off-payroll rules), Canada (CRA rules), Australia (ABN, ATO rules), Germany (Scheinselbstständigkeit), France, Netherlands, India, Brazil, Singapore, Japan, and South Africa. Includes classification confidence scoring, contract risk assessment, tax documentation management, and integration with payroll systems (Gusto, ADP, Paychex, Rippling, Stripe). Additional employer tools include handbook generation, contract management, compliance auditing, and payroll tax management.

Question 17

How are payments protected?

Accepted Answer

All projects use milestone-based escrow. You define project milestones upfront, fund the escrow, and payment is released only when each milestone meets your acceptance criteria. If a deliverable doesn't meet standards, the funds remain in escrow while the issue is resolved through our structured dispute resolution process. This protects both parties and ensures quality.

Question 18

What do the platform fees mean in practice?

Accepted Answer

You save compared to platforms charging up to 20%. Our flat platform fee is transparent and predictable — no tiers, no surprises, the same rate from day one. We believe the value is in the verification and matching infrastructure, not in extracting a large cut of every transaction. The Employer Verification API is available on Growth ($200/month) and Enterprise plans for programmatic credential verification.

Question 19

Can I create AI data rating projects?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Rating Lab allows employers to create AI data rating tasks with quality-controlled workflows. Post tasks for rating text, images, audio, or video content. Rating types include Likert scale, binary, side-by-side comparison, and multi-label. Monitor rater performance with quality assurance tools, agreement score tracking, and gold standard checks. Export results to CSV for analysis. This is ideal for AI training data, content moderation, and machine learning projects.

Question 20

Is REWORK. compliant with AI employment laws?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our platform is designed to comply with California's AI employment regulations, Illinois HB 3773, Texas TRAIGA, and the Colorado AI Act. We maintain human-in-the-loop on all AI-assisted hiring decisions, transparent AI disclosure (all SwitchAsses scores include explanations), regular bias detection and testing, and full data retention compliance. AI recommends; humans decide.

Question 21

What is Finprob?

Accepted Answer

Finprob is an AI product discovery engine that helps founders, entrepreneurs, and product teams discover validated product ideas by mining real user complaints, questions, and workarounds across 8+ social platforms including Reddit, Quora, X (Twitter), and more. Instead of guessing what to build, Finprob surfaces genuine user frustrations with market data, competitor analysis, and revenue estimates — taking you from problem discovery to product launch.

Question 22

How does Finprob discover product opportunities?

Accepted Answer

Finprob uses 7 AI-powered discovery methods to scan 8 platforms for real user pain points. It measures both the volume and emotional intensity of complaints to rank problems by urgency, providing validation scoring to quantify demand signals. Over time, Finprob builds a DNA profile based on your behavior — what you save, validate, and build — to surface problems uniquely matched to your interests and strengths.

Question 23

What can I do once I find a validated problem?

Accepted Answer

Finprob is a complete platform covering the entire journey from discovery to launch. Get market sizing, competitor analysis, audience profiling, and monetization signals for any problem. Then generate landing pages, product requirement documents (PRDs), and start collecting waitlist signups — all from within Finprob. You can also share discoveries with the Finprob community, upvote problems, form teams, and find co-founders working on problems you care about.

Question 24

What niches does Finprob support?

Accepted Answer

Finprob works across 16+ suggested niches — fitness, finance, freelancing, parenting, gaming, e-commerce, and more — or any custom niche you define. Non-English markets are also supported, helping you find untapped opportunities worldwide. Whether you are building a SaaS tool, a mobile app, or a physical product, Finprob adapts to your industry and market.

Question 25

How does REWORK. use AI?

Accepted Answer

We use AI across all five products: (1) Smart Matching — analyzing verified skills against job requirements to recommend the best candidates. (2) Career Intelligence — profile strength scoring, job market insights, salary benchmarks, interview preparation, and resume analysis. (3) SwitchAsses — behavioral analysis, job simulations, anti-cheating proctoring, and hiring confidence scoring for employers. (4) Resume Builder — AI-powered resume writing, ATS optimization, cover letter generation, interview practice, and job fit scoring. (5) Finprob — AI-driven scanning of 8+ platforms to discover validated product opportunities from real user complaints. (6) AI Project Brief — employers can generate project specifications, budgets, and timelines using AI. In all cases, AI provides recommendations and assistance. Humans always make the final decisions.

Question 26

Does REWORK. auto-apply to jobs on my behalf?

Accepted Answer

No, absolutely not. We do not submit applications, proposals, or any content on your behalf to any platform. This would violate the terms of service of LinkedIn, Upwork, Fiverr, and other platforms. Our AI helps you prepare better applications, understand job requirements, and optimize your materials — but YOU always review and submit everything yourself. This is a core compliance principle of our platform.

Question 27

How is AI bias prevented?

Accepted Answer

We conduct regular audits of our matching algorithms for demographic fairness. SwitchAsses includes built-in bias detection analysis in every assessment report. Our AI scoring systems evaluate verified work quality and skill match — not demographic factors. We maintain transparency about how scores are calculated and provide explanations for all AI-generated recommendations. Our compliance framework aligns with the strictest emerging AI employment regulations.

Question 28

How is my data protected?

Accepted Answer

We use enterprise-grade security: TLS 1.2+ encryption for all data in transit with HSTS enforcement, Google Cloud Platform infrastructure with Firebase Authentication and Firestore security rules, JWT tokens with expiry and rotation, bcrypt password hashing, and role-based access controls. We maintain GDPR and PIPEDA compliance. Your verification data is used only for platform operations and matching — never sold to third parties. We maintain a 4-year data retention policy aligned with California requirements. You can request a full data export or deletion at any time.

Question 29

What AI technology powers the platform?

Accepted Answer

REWORK. uses advanced AI models including Claude by Anthropic for career intelligence, resume optimization, and content generation. SwitchAsses uses proprietary behavioral analysis models trained on hiring outcomes. Finprob uses natural language processing to scan and analyze social media complaints at scale. All AI systems are designed with explainability in mind — every score, recommendation, and match comes with a clear rationale so users understand the reasoning behind AI outputs.

Question 30

How do I earn verification badges?

Accepted Answer

Submit real work evidence through the Proof of Work tool: connect GitHub repositories and pull requests, link HuggingFace models, upload files and screenshots, or add live project URLs. Each submission is automatically verified (for GitHub and HuggingFace integrations) or reviewed, then cryptographically hashed with SHA-256 and stored as a verifiable certificate. As you accumulate verified work and positive outcomes, you progress through trust tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Diamond.

Question 31

Can employers independently verify my credentials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every proof-of-work certificate has a unique hash identifier that employers can verify independently. Growth and Enterprise plan employers also have API access for programmatic verification through the Employer Verification API. This creates a portable reputation that belongs to you — it's not locked into any single platform.

Question 32

How are partner organizations vetted?

Accepted Answer

We verify company legitimacy, operational history, and professional standards. We review each partner's work quality expectations, payment practices, and communication standards. We monitor ongoing performance through professional feedback. If a partner consistently generates concerns, we investigate and may discontinue the partnership to protect our professional network.

Question 33

What if a partner organization doesn't approve my application?

Accepted Answer

Rejection from one partner doesn't affect your standing with REWORK. or your ability to connect with other opportunities. Each partner has unique criteria. Our support team can help you understand potential areas for improvement and identify alternative opportunities that better match your current verified skill level.

Question 34

How does REWORK. ensure platform integrity?

Accepted Answer

We maintain platform integrity through multiple layers: cryptographic hashing of all verified work (SHA-256), anti-cheating proctoring in SwitchAsses assessments, gold standard quality checks in Rating Lab, AI-Resistance Index scoring to detect dishonest assessment behavior, automated bot detection and management, and a dedicated auditing system with compliance monitoring, violation tracking, and audit logs. Our Code of Conduct sets clear standards for all participants on the platform.

Question 35

How does escrow payment work?

Accepted Answer

When a project starts, the employer funds milestones into escrow. As each milestone is completed and approved, funds are released to the professional. If there's a dispute, funds remain in escrow while our resolution process handles it. This protects both parties — professionals know the funds exist, and employers only pay for approved work.

Question 36

What payment methods are supported?

Accepted Answer

We support major payment methods including credit/debit cards, PayPal, bank transfers, and Stripe. Payment processing is handled securely through our integrated payment infrastructure. Specific methods may vary by region. Invoice tracking and earnings records are available from your dashboard.

Question 37

What subscription plans are available?

Accepted Answer

REWORK. charges a flat, transparent transaction fee on every payment — no mandatory subscriptions to use the marketplace. Two optional premium subscriptions are available: Expert Hub ($39.99/mo) for professional power users, and Business Hub ($99/mo) for companies with ongoing hiring needs. All subscriptions can be cancelled at any time, with access retained until the end of the billing period. See the Platform Fee page for current rates.

Question 38

Is there a refund policy?

Accepted Answer

The core platform (account creation, basic verification, marketplace access) is free, so refunds are not applicable. For subscription services, we offer a satisfaction guarantee — if you are not happy within the first 7 days of your subscription, contact us for a full refund. One-time credit pack purchases are non-refundable but never expire. Escrow-funded projects have their own structured resolution process for disputes. If you are ever unsure about terms, contact support before committing.

Question 39

How do I create an account?

Accepted Answer

Visit the registration page and choose your account type: Professional (for freelancers and job seekers) or Business (for employers and companies). Fill in your details, verify your email, and complete your profile. Professionals should add their skills, experience, and at least one proof of work to start building their trust tier. The entire process takes just a few minutes.

Question 40

What support options are available?

Accepted Answer

We offer 24/7 support through our Help Center. All users have access to email support and our comprehensive FAQ. Pro and Premium subscribers across all products receive priority support with faster response times. You can also access our resource library, welcome guides for professionals and employers, and detailed documentation for API integrations and compliance tools.

Question 41

Can I use multiple products with one account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your REWORK. account gives you access to all five products — the Verified Marketplace, Resume Builder, SwitchAsses, Rating Lab, and Finprob. Your profile, verified proofs, and trust tier carry across all products. Some products have their own subscription tiers for premium features, but basic access is included with your account.

Question 42

How do I list my services on the marketplace?

Accepted Answer

Professionals can list their services on the Verified Marketplace through the List Service page. Define your service offering, set your rates, and connect it to your verified skill portfolio. Your trust tier badge and proof-of-work certificates are automatically displayed alongside your listing, giving employers confidence in your capabilities. You can also browse and respond to service requests directly.
