Hey, I'm the founder of BrandForge. We built this because getting something built shouldn't require browsing profiles, writing a detailed brief, and negotiating with a stranger before any real work starts. You describe the project in a chat, AI structures it into scope and deliverables, and a vetted team takes it from there. Budget sits in escrow until you approve the work, so you're never paying before you can judge the result. Happy to answer anything about how the matching or escrow works.

What we learned capping proposal negotiation at two rounds

Founder of BrandForge here.

Early on, proposals on BrandForge could go back and forth indefinitely. A client counters, the specialist counters back, repeat. In practice this just meant deals dragged for days over small amounts, and the people most likely to walk away weren't the ones being unreasonable, they were the ones who got tired of negotiating first.

We capped it: one counter from the client, one counter back from the specialist, then it's a straight accept or reject on whatever's on the table. No third round.

It sounds like it should reduce flexibility. In practice it sped up matching, because both sides knew from the start there was no room to stall.
