Buy a project
Buy an outcome, not a headcount
For individuals, solopreneurs, small businesses and agencies who need work done — and for larger teams buying a defined piece of delivery alongside their hiring.
Preview · Sample data — Demo catalogue. Budget ranges are planning figures written for this prototype, not quotes. No individual professional, availability or capacity is listed or implied, and DOI claims no marketplace partnership.
Three ways to work with DOI
Pick the one that fits the job in front of you.
Direct hire
Hire the person yourself
You employ or contract the professional directly. DOI sources, verifies and matches against evidence, and hands over the introduction once the candidate approves it.
Managed talent
A dedicated professional, managed by DOI
A dedicated person works with you on an ongoing basis while DOI handles the engagement layer — onboarding, cover, performance check-ins and the workforce administration.
Managed service / project
Buy an outcome, not a headcount
You describe a deliverable and a deadline. DOI assembles and manages the person or small team and is accountable for delivering the outcome.
