"Founder of HIRENT"
I started building Hirent at the age of 16 with a vision to create a better and safer platform for freelancers and clients. I learned by researching, designing, and building the system step by step, even working on a 6-year-old mobile phone.
The idea came from seeing problems in freelancing like trust issues, unsafe payments, and difficulty connecting clients with skilled people. I wanted to build a platform that solves these problems.
Hirent is an AI-powered freelance marketplace and secure work collaboration startup focused on building a complete digital work ecosystem where freelancers, clients, agencies, and companies can connect, collaborate, manage projects, secure transactions, verify work, and build long-term professional relationships through AI-powered tools, smart workflows, adaptive dashboards, and a secure Vault infrastructure.
