Where freelancers win
- A two-week task with a clear spec
- A niche skill you need for a few days
- Budgets under one month of senior time
What usually goes wrong
- Screening takes your evenings
- Context walks out when the contract ends
- Hours bill, but nobody owns the outcome
Weecover's switch
- Before: time lost managing several freelancers
- After: six vetted developers in under two weeks, sixteen within a year (a team our founder built before TopDevCrew)
