Why an open-source operating system changes freelancing
Proprietary marketplaces profit by locking you into closed messaging, taking 10% to 20% from every payment, and threatening account closures. Clivora replaces the middleman with transparent software.
0% Commission Guarantee
Keep 100% of the money you earn. On a $10,000 project, legacy platforms extract $2,000 in fees. Clivora charges $0 on your completed invoices.
Complete Data Sovereignty
All your clients, invoices, project timesheets, and contracts reside in a PostgreSQL schema you control. Export or migrate anytime without restrictions.
7,150+ Remote Jobs Aggregated
Automated crawling pipeline pulls real-time engineering, design, and marketing roles directly from top companies. No paid tokens required to apply.
Private Connect Direct Hiring
Contact information is sealed until both freelancer and client accept the match. No spam, no cold outreach leaks, and no platform gatekeepers.
Native Android & Web Sync
Work on laptop or mobile. Cross-platform sync via Supabase and Flutter ensures your active contracts and invoices update everywhere in real time.
Self-Hostable Anywhere
Deploy on your own VPS, Hostinger, AWS, or run locally via Docker. You never have to worry about a marketplace shutting down your livelihood.
