Hire vetted freelancers
across Europe & the Gulf.

You describe your project in 60 seconds (category, context, budget, timeline). Our AI qualifies your request, then alerts the whole community of freelancers registered on Workwave in real time. Freelancers who match your need contact you directly by email or phone. No middleman, no commission, you stay in control of the conversation and the contract.

Yes, 100% free. Posting a project, being contacted by freelancers and signing a quote are all free on the client side. Workwave takes no commission on the engagement. Freelancers fund the platform through an optional Premium subscription that lets them respond to posted projects.

Workwave AI connects clients and freelancers across Europe (UK, Germany, Netherlands, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, the Nordics and more), the Gulf and the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman) and francophone Africa. Most freelancers work remotely, so you can hire across borders. English is supported throughout the international experience.

Three key differences. (1) Community broadcast: your project is sent in real time to every relevant freelancer, who chooses to reach out — instead of you scrolling through endless profiles. (2) 0% commission on the engagement: you pay the freelancer directly, transparent pricing, versus 10–20% taken by most marketplaces. (3) A simple flat subscription model for freelancers instead of per-bid credits or rising fees. The result: a better price for you and for the freelancer.

Within 24 hours in most cases, often within a few hours. As soon as a freelancer sees your project matching their skills, they can contact you directly. The clearer your brief (stack, budget, timeline, remote or on-site), the faster the right freelancers respond.

Day rates vary by skill, seniority and region. As a rough global benchmark: a senior web developer runs about $650–$900/day, a senior AI/ML engineer about $850–$1,300/day, a senior cloud/DevOps engineer about $800–$1,100/day. Rates in the Gulf and major European hubs trend higher. See our day-rate benchmark for a detailed, sourced breakdown.

Most do. Around 80% of our community works fully remote, which is the norm in tech since 2020, with the rest hybrid or on-site. You specify your constraints (location, on-site requirement, time zone) when you post — each freelancer sees those criteria and decides whether the project is a fit.

Create your profile for free in a few minutes (bio, skills, day rate, portfolio, links). You will be alerted about new projects that match your skills. To reply to a client and win the engagement, you subscribe to Premium — a flat monthly fee with no per-bid credits and no commission on what you earn. Your profile and project alerts stay free.
