This AI-generated snapshot distills top reviewer sentiments.
I hire brand designers, animators, sound designers and more on Contra and couldn't do what I do without it. It's what I wish I had when I was a freelancer myself.
I've been a regular user of Contra over the last couple of years and the team consistently ship great features that really deliver value for their members. Indy AI was another great feature which I was lucky enough to beta test. I've seen a number of AI tools that have tried to do what Indy does, I even went as far as to setup an automation between Linkedin Sale Navigator and Phantom Buster, but it was slow and cumbersome to get leads. I love how simply Indy make this process and while I occasionally get the odd duplicated job, Indy is still very new, but already way better than other modals I've seen.
Well done Contra, keep up the great work!
Thanks for help finding Mario Busto and making the video for our launch! Amazing to find incredible creators

Honestly love what Contra’s doing, feels way less “marketplace-y” and more like an actual community. As a student trying to get my first projects out there, the commission-free part is huge. Makes it easier to just focus on building and connecting.
