Great platform to find diverse experts with specific expertise. I've used it a bunch and always find nuanced POVS that add so much value to any piece I produce.
In the next update version you can include a helpful feature that allows users to rate their experience with contributors. This could enhance trust for media creators.
I used it for an article on branding and got a good hit rate of people who, most importantly, were outside my existing network. Otherwise I feel it's too easy to be cornered into your own bubble of influence and miss the diversity of perspectives that the platform can open you up to.
