AI freelancer marketplace for Indian firms

You build a website where businesses post an AI task and vetted freelancers, trainers and consultants get booked or bid for it. You start on WordPress with a marketplace theme, or a no-code builder, with profiles, job posts, messaging and payments. You check each expert before listing them, using work samples, LinkedIn and a short call. You earn a commission on completed projects and a monthly fee from experts who want a highlighted profile. To avoid an empty marketplace, you pick one niche first, such as AI automation for small businesses.

A founder who wants a chatbot or an automation does not know whom to trust. General freelance sites return hundreds of profiles with no easy way to judge AI skills. Experts, on the other side, have no focused place to show AI project results to Indian buyers who are ready to spend.

• People with a network of AI freelancers or trainers
• Community builders who already know founders needing AI help
• Operators who enjoy vetting people and matchmaking

• Commission of 15% on each project done through the site
• Premium expert listings at ₹500 a month
• Sponsored profiles or ads once the site has traffic

1. 1List 30 AI freelancers you can personally vouch for in one niche, and ask ten of them for a past project and a price.
2. 2Before building anything, collect five real AI jobs from business owners in a spreadsheet and match them to experts by hand over WhatsApp.
3. 3Charge a fee only when a match leads to paid work, and build the WordPress or no-code site after ten matches have worked.

A marketplace needs buyers and sellers at the same time, and most stall at that start. Both sides will also try to take deals off the site to dodge your commission. Holding client money and paying experts out raises payment and tax questions in India, so use a licensed payment partner and ask an accountant about GST.
