Braintrust is a blockchain-powered freelancer marketplace that connects technical and design talents with organizations. The marketplace that the company offers is a user-controlled talent network that provides enterprises with highly skilled technical and design talent that they need. It connects organizations directly to top tech talent, offering 40-70 percent savings by removing middlemen. The company charges a flat 10 percent project fee, and talent keeps 100 percent of their revenue. Braintrust aims to build a talent platform that disrupts traditional hiring methods and aligns incentives and redistributes value to talent and organizations. Adam Jackson, Gabriel Luna-Ostaseski, and Brian Flynn co-founded Braintrust in San Jose, California, in 2018.
