Spotted is a mobile app that helps creative freelancers easily get their work discovered in the real world.
The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed more creatives to explore freelance work in favor of traditional 9 to 5 jobs. 58% of non-freelancers who are new to remote work due to the pandemic are now considering freelancing in the future. However, freelancers face many unique challenges, some of the most difficult being finding new gigs, pitching to clients, and maintaining client relationships over time.
Spotted is a mobile app that helps freelancers be more easily discovered by clients who are seeking creative talent. Using the image recognition software in Spotted, potential clients can scan any poster, subway ad, or billboard they see in the physical world to reveal all of the creators who worked on this project. With Spotted, any freelancer, from copywriters to photographers, can spend more time working on their craft and less time pitching to clients.
