A reviewed directory of work platforms.
FreelanceSites.net helps people find platforms where anyone can register to work or hire — freelance marketplaces like Upwork, gig marketplaces like Fiverr, ride and delivery apps like Uber and DoorDash, and rental platforms like Airbnb. Vetted, screened networks such as Toptal are included too, clearly marked.
What we record about each platform
Beyond the basics, every listing carries the practical details that matter when you choose a platform: how you withdraw your money, whether registration is open or screened, whether the work is remote, mobile apps, certifications, awards, media coverage, and official web and social profiles. Many platforms also have step-by-step guides for getting started and getting paid.
How listings are verified
Anyone can submit a platform by entering its web address. We load the site's own metadata, check the brand against the Google Knowledge Graph where an entry exists, and then a person reviews every submission before it appears in the directory. Nothing is published automatically. Listed platforms are then re-checked in verification rounds — status, fees, payout methods and availability against each platform's official pages — and closures are recorded rather than deleted. Read the full methodology.
Where AI is used — and where it isn't
The AI discovery search uses Google's Gemini model to suggest platforms matching what you describe, including platforms not yet listed. Those suggestions are clearly labelled as AI-generated. We also use AI to help research our guides and country pages from official sources; every guide says so and lists the sources it was built from. Platform facts — fees, payouts, availability — come from each platform's own published pages, and the comparisons and rankings on the site are calculated directly from that data.
Who runs FreelanceSites.net
FreelanceSites.net is an independent directory. No platform pays to be listed or to change its position, and outbound links do not affect how a platform is described.
