Fiverr Transforms the Recruiting Platform with a Summer 2024 Product Release

Fiverr launched its summer 2024 product release, marking its transition from a services market to a rental space. This release includes deep AI integration with Fiverr Neo, a new professional catalog, a satisfaction guarantee, and a rewards program to meet the changing needs of today's businesses.

Micha Kaufman, founder and CEO of Fiverr, noted that major shifts in the workplace require new solutions. “The innovations released today provide an expanded range of options for businesses to hire talented people and integrate freelancers into their workforce,” he said. Updates allow businesses to better recruit the talent they need by showcasing freelancers' full capabilities and offering flexible hourly work options.

Fiverr's new professional catalog enables customers to search by profession and skills, providing detailed information on freelancers' backgrounds and experiences. This feature helps clients find the right talent for their long-term projects.

For the first time, Fiverr Pro freelancers can offer hourly rates, allowing businesses to partner with freelancers on ongoing projects and recurring consultations. This flexibility is important as job requirements change over time.

Fiverr also introduces business partners who manage projects from start to finish. These experienced project managers will assemble independent teams to ensure high quality results quickly and within budget.

Fiverr Pro's customer satisfaction guarantee guarantees confidence in choosing Fiverr's talented freelancers. This money back guarantee covers services purchased from Fiverr Pro resellers.

The new corporate rewards program includes three tiers of rewards: Silver, Gold, and Platinum. Benefits include 5% back in Fiverr credits on freelance orders, a dedicated Business Success Manager, free project planning, and additional credits for larger deposits.

Fiverr's new talent kickstart program offers guided onboarding, free courses, market research tools, real-time AI-based feedback, and profile development features. This program is designed to set new freelancers up for success.

AI integration continues to play an important role in Fiverr's environment. Neo, trained on Fiverr's extensive data set, helps customers find what they need by narrowing the criteria, asking the right follow-up questions, and providing updated search results. AI Briefs powered by Neo helps clients define project requirements, create structured briefs, and communicate details such as timelines and deliverables.

Enhanced reviews powered by Neo allow customers to write detailed reviews based on their experience, improving review quality and providing freelancers with valuable insights.

Fiverr's summer product release is first available on an invite-only basis and will roll out to the rest of the community over the next few months.
