What it does

Live marketplace for entrepreneurs and experts

Hire operators who already pay for Higgsfield, HeyGen, Midjourney and ElevenLabs. Watch them run the tools on screen share and pay $0.005 a second — no subscriptions of your own.

They already pay for Higgsfield, Runway, HeyGen and ElevenLabs — and they know how to drive them. Watch the work happen on their screen, in their account. Pay $0.005 a second, only while they're in the room. And the subscription is the cheap part — the week you'd spend learning to prompt it isn't. Rent the seat and the operator. Cancel nothing, because you subscribed to nothing. "A teaser in Higgsfield", "UGC ads in HeyGen", "A voiceover in ElevenLabs". Name the output, not the process. Someone who already pays for that tool joins your room and shares the screen it's running on. You see the prompts, the renders and the rejects. Redirect mid-generation instead of after delivery. You own the…from chefs.video

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hello HN, I’m the solo developer behind Chefs.Video. It’s a platform for hiring freelancers (devs, designers, editors) by watching them work live, rather than relying on portfolios or resumes. The Problem: I got burned hiring a React developer on Fiverr. He had 5-star reviews and a great portfolio. It took 2 weeks…

  I figured, "what better way to look at a list of (hopefully) inspiring projects?" The upvotes work and are globally synced.

  We used investor tools to find the best startups to work at2022 · joinmaasive.com · ▲29

  hey y'all -- can you please tell us if our job search tool sucks? :D we built it using an investor platform called Harmonic.ai to gather startup data, then contextualize it so that job seekers could find out about the most exciting startups hiring first (like if they just raised, growing headcount fast, have an ex-unicorn founder, etc). pretty sure we're the first platform doing anything like this. anyway, let me know what you think. really excited to launch this thing soon! getting feedback from the hn community first is really fun :)

  Hi HN! I’m launching portfolio.dev — a platform for developers, designers, freelancers, and PMs to create portfolios that tell the full story behind projects , not just display work. As a developer myself, I know how hard it is to present projects that show real value. portfolio.dev offers a clean URL (portfolio.dev/u/username), perfect for GitHub, LinkedIn, and resumes . Pro plan: $5/month or $50/year (US payments only), with unlimited projects, detailed analytics , and priority support . Would love feedback or questions from this amazing community!

  Thank You, Hacker News2023 · ▲44

  I was just browsing through the "Who got hired?" thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36160198) and it caused me to think about all of the things that happened in my real life due to HN. In 2012 I was hired from a post in the "Who's Hiring" thread that turned out to be a complete life and career transformation. It was at a very famous company that everyone here has heard of and used. They were pre-IPO and I got to be a "part" of that IPO. It exposed me to people smarter than I had ever met, and allowed me to learn from them. It allowed me a path into "big tech" that I…

  I built a "living proof-of-work" profile for buildersJun 2026 · kritive.com · ▲5

  Just like Show HN, you showcase your projects with other builders, but your work actually lives forever in a portfolio-like profile. Plus lots of other features like for-you feed, curated collections of projects - private and public, followers and following, threaded posts for showcasing updates to your projects, collaborations and many more.

  Created a Job Board for Remote Programming Jobs2010 · workfromhomeprogrammingjobs.com · ▲23

  Based on the multiple "Who's hiring remotely?" and similar posts on HN, I thought it might be useful to have a site that aggregates remote programming jobs. There is way too much spam out and an inconsistent way to say "work from home" so traditional searching doesn't work (or rather, takes a long time per person). I've worked in a few remote programming positions so I figured I might know of some companies or searching tricks to find them. Let me know if you'd find this type of thing useful. If we can get some traffic going, then maybe we can start attracting companies to actually list…
