Whispers are circulating in freelancer Discord communities that a major freelance platform is quietly testing AI agent features that would let sellers deploy automated service bots directly on the platform.
According to sources in private Slack groups, the feature would let freelancers create AI agents trained on their past work. These agents would handle initial inquiries, generate quotes, and even deliver completed work for certain categories.
If true, this could reshape the freelance economy. Sellers could scale themselves — one person managing multiple AI agents handling different services.
“This is either going to make freelancers 10x more productive or make the platform completely unrecognizable,” one source said. Unconfirmed.
