Get ready for the second freelancer revolution with Malt!

Over the past decade, we led the first freelancing revolution, transforming the landscape by making it easier than ever for independent professionals like you to connect with top companies across Europe. But we’re not stopping here. Now, the second revolution is upon us. At Malt, we’re creating products that make it easy to build and manage Superteams on a global scale, empowering you to do great work. And we’ve only just started! 

In this article, we’ll talk about how Malt is paving the way with Superteams and new features to enable companies match better and faster with the best freelance talent on the planet. 

Eleven years ago we started the freelancing revolution. Now, it’s time for the second freelancing revolution – where freelancers unlock competitive advantages for companies. Businesses worldwide are rethinking how they build and scale their teams, integrating incredible freelancers for complex projects when they need specialized skills. Enter Superteams: talented freelancers like you teaming up with permanent employees to deliver amazing results. This new way of working combines the best of both worlds: employees bring deep knowledge, long-term perspective, and commitment, while freelances offer problem-solving skills, unique expertise, and fresh perspective of freelancers. Together, you make things happen that neither could do alone – because Superteams are faster, more flexible, creative, and scalable. Plus, it allows companies to stay agile and innovative, while you get to work on challenging, high-impact projects, and build a great portfolio along the way! 

At Malt, we’re providing clients with the tools they need to improve how they use Malt to seamlessly hire and integrate freelancers. By educating clients on these features, we’re championing our freelancer community and giving them the spotlight they deserve. 

To build Superteams, companies need integrated technology – and that’s where our latest AI-powered tool makes all the difference. Our AI Search doesn’t just match based on job titles or location; it considers your availability, rate, and skills to find matches that go far beyond the basics. With AI Search, we’re enabling clients to cut their search-to-hire process from days to seconds. Leveraging AI for smarter matches means finding the right talent (yes, like you!) at the right time, for the right project.

By making it super easy for hiring managers to use Malt, we’re making it a no-brainer for them to hire and manage freelancers in the most efficient way possible. When they post a project on Malt, our AI generates a comprehensive brief that includes the right amount of details and information. This minimizes the time hiring managers need to spend updating briefs with crucial elements, ensuring that matches are spot-on and relevant. Hiring managers understand their team's needs best, and AI isn’t here to replace them. Instead, AI assists and empowers but never replaces humans. If clients want to fine-tune their project criteria themselves after the brief has been generated, they can easily do that – making the process fast and intuitive. It can automate tasks, provide information, or streamline workflows, but ultimately, people are in charge of the final decisions. 

With Malt’s AI-powered tools, you’ll experience fewer irrelevant project offers and more quality projects that truly align with your experience, skills, and interests. And with clear, detailed briefs, you’ll spend less time refining project details and can dive into your new project faster!

Our incredible community remains at the heart of what we do. Freelancers like you are the backbone of the modern workforce, and we truly want to support you, from the day you join Malt to the moment you land your next project. Our Freelancer Advisory Board ensures your voice is heard, advocates for better working conditions, and provides us feedback to help us do better. In addition, the Super Malter program gives you greater visibility, making your profile 30% more likely to be viewed and attracting high-quality projects. As a Super Malter, you are also invited to fun, exclusive events. To join, earn points by completing projects, keep your rating at 4.5 or higher, and you’ll level up in no time!

We also offer a range of partnerships to make your freelance life easier, from online accounting programs to banking, insurance, global car rental, retirement planning, and more.

Whether you’re a tech expert, marketing guru, or creative strategist, we’re here to help you thrive in a world where freelance talent is more in demand than ever. From local community managers to practical tools for managing your freelance career, we’ve got your back.

Everything we do – through Superteams, AI Search, and strong community support – is designed to make your freelance journey smoother. We’re here to help you get the most out of your talent and connect you with clients across Europe or right around the corner.
