ECNETNews reports that Fiverr has unveiled its 2024 summer product release, signaling a significant evolution from a traditional services marketplace to a comprehensive hiring platform. The new features include advanced AI integration with Fiverr Neo, a revamped professions catalog, a satisfaction guarantee, and a rewards program tailored to meet the dynamic demands of modern businesses.
The founder and CEO expressed that recent shifts in the workplace necessitate innovative solutions: “Our latest releases broaden the range of options for businesses to attract skilled talent and seamlessly integrate freelancers into their operations.” The enhancements enable organizations to efficiently identify the talent they require by showcasing freelancers’ extensive skill sets and allowing flexible hourly work arrangements.
The newly launched professions catalog empowers customers to search by specific professions and skills, offering in-depth insights into freelancers’ expertise and experience. This feature assists clients in sourcing the ideal talent for their long-term projects.
For the first time, Fiverr Pro freelancers can now set hourly rates, enhancing opportunities for businesses to connect with freelancers for ongoing projects and continual consultations, adapting to evolving job requirements.
Furthermore, Fiverr introduces dedicated business partners who will manage projects from inception to completion. These skilled project managers will build freelance teams ensuring prompt delivery and high-quality outcomes within budget constraints.
A satisfaction guarantee for Fiverr Pro customers instills confidence in selecting skilled freelancers. This money-back guarantee applies to services procured from Fiverr Pro sellers.
The new business rewards program features three tiers: Silver, Gold, and Platinum. This program includes benefits such as 5% back in Fiverr credits for freelancer orders, access to a dedicated Business Success Manager, complimentary project planning services, and bonus credits for substantial deposits.
Fiverr’s kickstart program for emerging talent offers guided onboarding, free educational courses, market research resources, real-time AI feedback, and profile enhancement tools, all aimed at fostering the success of new freelancers.
AI continues to be a cornerstone of Fiverr’s platform. The newly enhanced Neo capabilities assist users in narrowing search criteria, prompting constructive follow-up questions, and delivering updated findings. AI Briefs powered by Neo facilitate clear project articulation, helping customers develop structured briefs with essential details such as timelines and deliverables.
Enhanced review functionalities driven by Neo enable customers to compose detailed feedback based on their experiences, thereby elevating the quality of reviews and providing freelancers with actionable insights.
Fiverr’s summer product release will initially be available by invitation, with plans for broader access to the entire community in the upcoming months.
