Contra was my first ever freelance platform outside my close referral and I've been following them ever since they started. I enjoy the community, spirits, and vibes from everyone so much! Thank you and congrats on this HUGE launch and the biggest thanks for changing the narrative around freelancing! Soda (Pilipda Samattanawin)
I've been with Contra for over two years now and I've never seen such excellent support for freelancers. They are working hard to help us be successful and provide ways to connect with each other in the Contra community. This latest feature takes the guesswork out of "how do I get started" and helps creatives and independent thinkers focus on getting their skillsets out there. Their user feedback focused upgrades show how invested they are in the freelancer community and I couldn't be prouder to be associated with them. Love how this company keeps adjusting to apply the tools an techniques we need to be successful.
I started my another freelancer journey here on contra few months ago, and guess what i got much potential in early basis, Absolutely incredible!
Congrats on the launch! I started on Contra in April and it is by far THE BEST platform I've hosted my portfolio on. Reason being, I love the utmost support I have received from the staff and peers. It has been such a supportive community that wants everyone to WIN! I love the portfolio templates, super modern and engaging. As someone who is a freelancer, I love that Contra vets all their incoming clients that want to post a for hire listing. I know as freelancers there are situations where something feels off but since I have started on this platform there has nothing but ups and wins! One of my favorite things about Contra, is their contract option that they provide when you start a gig with a client. I struggled with creating my own contract in the past. Contra has your back! I have nothing negative to say about Contra and I am looking forward to whatever the future brings for this company! Cheers xx

As a freelancer, finding the right platform to showcase my skills and connect with potential clients has always been a priority. Contra.com has exceeded my expectations in every way, and here are the reasons why I'm giving it a solid five stars: User-Friendly Interface: The website's design is clean, intuitive, and user-friendly. Navigating through the platform, setting up my profile, and browsing projects was a breeze. Contra.com truly understands the needs of freelancers and makes it easy to get started.

You know exactly how much you'll earn for a project, and the platform handles payments securely, so you can focus on your work without worrying about financial transactions.

Love your branding, team! Also, the community you're building is so supportive and productive. The quality of the leads on your site and the portfolio layouts are both on fire! Keep it up!
I just tried out the one-line prompt, it's a game-changer for designers! I love how easy it is to add project content now only with a link, saves so much time!! Great launch!
You guys are best at what you do! Especially the launch video? I didn't expect it to be this good. It immediately got me intrigued and I went on to check further; It really is MAGIC! This is a new age company, for all kinds of people, and I've always expected brands like Contra to do something extraordinary and out of the box, with the features, and their branding as well; and Contra's doing it pretty well I'd say. I won't be surprised if I see this company playing bigger games with bigger sharks in the tank soon. Personally tried and tested, Solid 5/5. I agree with @kuizinas point - "As someone who started out as a freelancer, I know how important it is to launch a portfolio quickly to get the business running. But sometimes it can take FOREVER. And that's not how it’s supposed to be." Magic is the art of fascinating people.
This is such a win for independents — cause let's face it... we've all awkwardly stalled on updating our portfolios for longer than we shoud. So excited to see what this unlocks for freelancers!
