Introduction

Freelancing should be empowering, not burdened with hidden costs and uncertainty. Traditional platforms often take significant cuts from your earnings, leaving freelancers with less for their hard work. Moreover, without a secure and transparent way to manage agreements, freelancers and clients face unnecessary risks and potential disputes. Threelancer addresses these challenges by leveraging blockchain technology to create a transparent, secure, and cost-effective platform for freelance contract management.

Key Features

• Contract Signing on Chain: Users can upload and sign contracts securely using Internet Identity, ensuring legitimacy and transparency.
• Safe Payment: Clients pay upfront, with funds securely held and released only when both parties are satisfied.
• Project Document on Chain: All project-related documents are stored on-chain, providing transparency and immutability.

Why Blockchain?

Blockchain technology enables us to build a platform where every agreement, payment, and document is secure, transparent, and immutable. This is essential for reducing the risks associated with freelance work and ensuring fair and transparent interactions between freelancers and clients.

Why ICP?

The Internet Computer (ICP) is a fast, scalable, and cost-effective blockchain network that allows for complete on-chain storage. With storage costs as low as $5/GB per year, ICP provides the perfect environment for managing freelance contracts and documents securely and efficiently.
