About

The team behind Friendly.

Friendly is a privacy-first work platform for freelancers and gig workers — Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp, and LinkedIn Jobs in one surface, with E2EE as a baseline.

Our mission

Independent workers stitch their day together from a dozen tools — a chat app here, a marketplace there, an invoice in a third — and their data leaks across all of them. Earnings is the first problem, and privacy shouldn't be the price of solving it.

Friendly brings finding work, doing the work, and getting paid into a single private surface. Bounties and jobs to find work; encrypted channels, DMs, and meetings to do it; a professional profile and wallet to grow — with privacy built in, not bolted on.

What Friendly offers

Bounties & jobs

Find work matched to your skills and apply in 2 taps, with payment protected by escrow.

Encrypted messaging

Channels, threads, and end-to-end encrypted DMs — the whole job in one private place.

Meetings

Voice and video from any thread, with calendar and scheduling built in.

Professional profile

Skills, experience, and verified ratings from real clients — a reputation you own.

Wallet & escrow

Track your balance and what's in escrow; withdraw to your bank when work clears.

Privacy by default

On-device by default, granular controls, and a permanent no to training AI on your content.

  • Android (phone and tablet)
