Already a team? Take the next step together.
Keep the relationship, the rate, and the way you talk. Add protected payment, a 14-day clock, and a record of every project. You are priced at the repeat rate from day one, because you found each other.
How to start, from either side
Create your invite link. Send it.
Sign up, open your profile, and create an invite link. Text it, email it, drop it in the thread you already have. When your client joins through it, your pair is priced as a repeat pair from the first payment, and you both land in a chat together.
Send this page to your professional.
The link has to come from them — that is how we know you found each other and price you at the repeat rate. Send them this page; they create the link; you join through it. Or sign up now and message them the moment they are here.
What changes
- The money is protected before work starts, and paid by the clock — 14 days of silence pays the professional.
- Each delivery is reviewed in the medium it is made in — pins, margin notes, timestamps — against criteria you wrote together.
- Every project keeps a record: the brief, the changes, the approvals, the statement.
- If something goes wrong, a person reads both sides and rules. No arbitration fee.
What stays yours
- Your rate. The client's number never changes; nothing is added to it.
- Your relationship. Nobody here is introduced to anyone; you found each other.
- The way you talk. It is a chat. There is nothing for either of you to learn.
- Your freedom to leave. No subscription, no lock-in, no fee to walk away.
A worked example — $500
The client’s number never changes. What changes is the fee the professional pays, and only because Actuallize didn’t make the introduction.
- Client pays

- Payment costs · the processor’s rate, not ours (estimate)

- Professional receives (≈)

A card payment. Payment costs are an estimate at published card rates, shown at cost — they aren’t Actuallize’s fee and aren’t marked up. The 0.5% rate stays for every project the two of you do.
Never here.
No pay-to-bid. Sending a proposal never costs anything. There are no Connects, credits, or bid limits.
No promoted-listing tax. Nobody can pay to rank above you, and nobody can pay to reach a client first.
No silent bans. Every restriction states its reason, and a person reviews an appeal within 3 working days.
No activity tracking. No screenshots, no keystroke logs, no online dots, no last-seen.
No separate client fee. The client pays the number on the brief. The professional's fee sits on its own line, visible to them before money moves.
No AI that approves or rules. A person approves the work; a person rules a dispute. Where we add AI, it only ever advises.
Every line above is true today and enforced in the product or by written policy. If one ever changes, the changelog says so that day.
