We recently launched TAP (https://tap.inc). Any feedback is very much appreciated. At TAP, we are building a new platform for freelancers. Because the platform is brand new, any feedback given could directly impact the future development of the platform.
If you are a freelancer, which feature(s) would you like to see that would help in your career? Job board, invoicing, project management, etc. We want to hear from you.
On a technical note, the stack for TAP is jamstack (react, gatsby, netlify, heroku, hasura), auth0 and stripe. The entire backend is micro-services based using netlify lambda functions.
Thanks!

This is very good sir especially the user experience. The 20+ years of experience is clearly visible! Can you please tell me how much approximate time and money does it require to build such a platform?

@jason_cochran This is great sir! Congratulations and best wishes for your platform.
@deepak_positive Thanks for the kind words. The initial app was built by 5 very talented people on our team:
1) designer - Catherine Savitch (https://www.linkedin.com/in/cath...)
2) copywriter - Rai Cornell (https://www.linkedin.com/in/raic...)
3) front-end developer - Adam Bezemek (@adam_bezemek - https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam...)
4) myself as the back-end developer and CTO (https://www.linkedin.com/in/coch...)
5) CEO - Daniel Gerow (@daniel_gerow2 - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dani...)
...with various input and ideas from industry veterans.
Development started in April 6th so thats roughly 3 months for the initial app full time between the team. I don't have the numbers for the cost, but I'd expect it to be reasonable considering the time and people involved. I think we accomplished a great deal considering the time and what all was involved.
