Switch from Braintrust (usebraintrust.com) to Zinn Hub
This page is about Braintrust the talent network at usebraintrust.com — not braintrust.dev, the unrelated AI evaluation company. Braintrust is a vetted network for enterprise contract hiring. Zinn Hub is the opposite shape: open and self-serve, with fixed-price listings you publish yourself, three ways to win work, and 0% commission on your first $500.
Open marketplace · 0% on your first $500 · No buyer platform feeThree ways to earn on Zinn Hub
Most marketplaces give a freelancer one route to a buyer. Zinn Hub gives you three. Use one, two or all three.
Publish a service package with a set price and scope. A buyer reads it, buys it at checkout and the work starts — no call, no proposal, no negotiation.
Buyers post a brief and you send a proposal explaining how you would do it. Posting a project is free and so is sending a proposal — there are no bidding credits to buy.
A public profile with your skills, rates and portfolio. Buyers filter the directory and approach you directly — no listing to buy, no brief to answer first.
Three routes to a buyer from one profile.
You write your services once. They sell as fixed-price Zinns, back your Project proposals, and fill out your Directory profile.
What Braintrust publishes about itself
Everything in this section comes from Braintrust’s own website at usebraintrust.com, including its own legal fee terms.
Which Braintrust this page means
Two well-funded and entirely unrelated companies trade as Braintrust. This page is about usebraintrust.com, the talent network. It is not about braintrust.dev, an AI evaluation and observability platform for developers. The company also owns braintrust.com, which redirects to usebraintrust.com — but usebraintrust.com is the operating address.
Source: usebraintrust.com and braintrust.dev, checked 13 August 2026.What Braintrust actually is
Braintrust describes itself as an AI-powered talent network for enterprise recruiting, and its own pricing page lists three products: a Talent Marketplace, an AI recruiter, and a workflow-automation product. It also sells AI training-data services. It is a vetted network for enterprise contract hiring, not an open self-serve gig marketplace.
Source: usebraintrust.com homepage and pricing page, checked 13 August 2026.Its published fee split
Braintrust’s own service-fee terms state a 15% platform fee added over and above the transaction amount and paid by the client — its own worked example turns a $90/hour rate into $103.50/hour for the client. Its payments and pricing pages state zero platform fees for talent.
Source: usebraintrust.com/site-service-fees-terms, /payments and /pricing. That fee page is itself dated July 2023 and states fees may change on notice, so treat it as current-but-dated. Checked 13 August 2026.How you get work there
On a vetted network you apply, you are screened, and you are matched into a client contract. You do not publish a fixed-price service a buyer can purchase outright, and there is no public storefront of your own to send people to. That suits enterprise contract work; it is a different job from building your own book of buyers.

Fees change — read their pricing page before you decide. Where a company does not publish a figure clearly, we leave the space empty rather than guess.
What to weigh up before you move
These are the questions Zinners ask us most often when they are deciding where to sell next.
You want to publish, not wait to be matched
On Zinn Hub you write a Zinn, set the price, and it is on sale. A buyer can purchase it outright without a call, a screening round or a match. Your listings work while you sleep.
You want smaller work as well as big contracts
Enterprise contract hiring has a floor. Zinn Hub does not: Micro Zinns are fixed-price services at $5, $10, $15 or $20, and you can run them alongside larger custom Projects on the same profile.
You want the buyer’s cost to stay simple
A fee added on top of your rate raises the number the client sees. On Zinn Hub buyers pay no platform fee at all — the price a buyer sees is the price they pay, and the commission comes out of the seller side.
You want to be paid into your own account
Connect your own PayPal or Stripe and buyers pay you directly at checkout, into your own merchant account. No platform balance, and no withdrawal minimum to reach first.
You want a shop window in your buyer’s language
Zinn Hub is browsable in 45 languages and buyers can message you in 57. Prices are set and charged in USD with 59 display currencies, so an overseas buyer sees an approximate figure in their own money.
You want three ways to earn, not one
Fixed-price Zinns, free proposals on posted Projects, and a public Freelancer Directory buyers hire from directly. Use one, two or all three — the same profile powers them all.

How to move your listings across
You do not have to retype anything. Import My Services is a free self-serve tool: paste a listing, or your whole profile, and it drafts your Zinns for you.
Ücretsiz kayıt ol
Create your Zinner account. No subscription, no card. Every feature is on the free membership from day one.
Paste your listings in
Open Import My Services, paste a Braintrust listing or your whole profile, and it drafts your Zinns. 10 free imports, images included, and you confirm before anything is submitted.
Run the three wizards
The Store Setup Wizard, Payment Setup Wizard and Zinn Creation Wizard walk you through your storefront, how you want to be paid, and your first listing.
Open your other two channels
Finish your Freelancer Directory profile so buyers can find you without a listing, and start sending free proposals on Projects.
What happens to your reviews and your rating
Be realistic: no marketplace can import another marketplace’s ratings as its own. What Import My Services can do is carry across up to 10 of your reviews, word for word, inside the listing it drafts — so a buyer can still read what your past clients said. From there you build a record here, and reviews on Zinn Hub require a confirmed purchase. A Micro Zinn at $5 to $20 is the quickest way to get the first one on the board.
