THE PLAN
Business plan, condensed
VERORA is a proof-first freelance marketplace: freelancers win work with verified deliverables, not cover letters. Free to apply, always — commission only when work completes.
How it works
Portfolio is the profile. Applying surfaces real work.
Hobby projects, old client work, repos, edits, sites. Anything real beats any paragraph about being passionate.
Platform completions verify automatically. Link GitHub and repos with real commit history upgrade too. Everything else is honestly marked unverified.
Clients review proof cards, fund a milestone escrow contract, and release on approval. One click to apply — your proof is the application.
Verification & IP
Source over screenshots.
Work completed and paid on VERORA. Strongest signal — escrow, delivery, and payment all happened here.
Linked repo plus a verified GitHub account with visible commit history. Confirmable by anyone.
Claimed by the freelancer, not yet confirmed. Browse with care — live previews still let you judge the work itself.
IP stays with whoever the contract says. VERORA verifies that work is real — ownership terms live in the contract, not in the portfolio.
Fees & Escrow
Quoted at funding. Taken only on completion.
Milestone escrow: the client funds (or records) the amount, the freelancer submits, the client approves — and only then is the fee taken and the payout released. Launch mode is manual escrow: match and verify on VERORA, pay directly, track status here.
Spam control
Open access without the flood.
Max 5 open posts per client, duplicate title + description blocked automatically, no cover letters to spam with, and rate limits on every write action. The marketplace stays readable because abuse is structurally unprofitable.
