Be found for the work you actually do.
SurfedIn is a public directory for independent professionals and the people who hire them. Not a social network. Not a feed. Just discovery — straight to the work.
In 30 seconds
A public profile. A searchable directory. A direct way in.
No algorithm pushing posts. No inbox to manage. Your profile is your pitch and the search bar does the rest.
A profile that pitches for you
Positioning, projects, packages, paid content, reviews — all on one public page that Google can index.
A directory that surfaces you
Browse and filter by skill, industry, country, language, or rate. The right person finds you, not the loudest.
A direct way to get in touch
Skip the DMs and the gatekeeping. Profiles link straight to the channel where the person actually replies.
Inside the dashboard
Everything an independent needs on one page
No portfolio site to maintain. No Notion link to share. The building blocks live together and stay searchable.
Profile & positioning
A clean header with your role, skills, industries, country, languages, rate, and the one-liner that lands you the right work.
Projects & case studies
Show what you shipped — outcomes, stack, the brand. Each project has its own page that ranks on its own.
Service packages with public rates
List productized offers with scope and price up-front. No discovery call to find out what you cost.
Paid content & tools
Sell templates, plugins, courses, workshops, reports, newsletters — or share them free. Your IP, your store.
Reviews from real engagements
Reviews are tied to people you actually worked with. Trust is earned in public, not faked in testimonials.
A public wall
Endorsements, intros, and short notes from your network — visible to anyone considering working with you.
For independents
Stop performing visibility. Start being findable.
Whatever you do solo, SurfedIn is the page you send instead of a CV, a Notion doc, and three screenshots.
Fractional operator
Get inbound from founders who already understand the offer
A public profile with packages and rates filters out the tire-kickers. The founders who reach out are pre-qualified.
Designer / creator
Sell templates, plugins, and assets next to your services
Productize what you already build. A Figma plugin, an Obsidian vault, a Notion template — all sit on the same profile.
Advisor / coach
Package advisory tiers without rebuilding a website
Define monthly retainers, sprint packages, or one-off audits. Public scope, public price, no proposal cycle.
Builder / engineer
Ship case studies that rank for the problems you solve
Each project gets its own indexed page. Clients searching for your stack and outcomes land on your work directly.
For founders & teams
Hire and buy without the discovery-call tax
See the offer, see the price, see the work, see who already worked with them. Then reach out.
Early-stage founder
Find a fractional CFO, CMO, or operator with public rates
Filter by skill, industry, and country. Compare scope and price side-by-side instead of running a five-call shortlist.
Marketing lead
Hire a creative for a defined package, not an open brief
Pick a productized offer with clear deliverables. Less back-and-forth, faster start, no surprise invoices.
Hiring manager
Vet someone before you ever message them
Public case studies and reviews tied to real engagements give you a signal you can actually act on.
Operator / team
Buy a ready-made template, playbook, or plugin
Skip the build. The same independents who do the work also sell the assets that helped them ship it.
Talent / HR
Run a public search instead of a private shortlist
Post an open search or mandate as a project. Independents who fit reach out to you — no agency fee, no inbox dragnet, no LinkedIn cold-DM theatre.
Why it works
Discovery-first, not feed-first
SurfedIn is more direct than a social network. The platform exists so good work gets found, not so anyone has to perform.
Discovery is the product
The home screen is search and filters, not a timeline. People find you because they were looking for what you do.
Public rates, public scope
Every package shows price and deliverables. Pricing transparency saves both sides hours of pre-sales.
SEO-indexed profiles
Profiles, projects, and content are server-rendered with proper metadata. Google can find them. So can your next client.
Reviews tied to real work
Reviews live on the platform and reference specific engagements. Less theatre, more signal.
Paid content built-in
Sell templates, tools, courses, workshops, newsletters, and reports without bolting on a separate storefront.
Zero algorithm, zero noise
No engagement loop, no posting schedule, no streaks. The page works while you don't.
One link replaces a stack
One URL covers your CV, portfolio, store, and rate card. Send it once. Pin it everywhere.
Built for being seen, not scrolled
Every page is structured for clarity — for the human reading it and the search engine indexing it.
Straight to the work
No personal-brand performance. Your work, your rates, your reviews. That's the pitch.
