We are not a gig platform or a staffing firm. We are a different kind of platform– we help companies and creative freelancers connect directly for work opportunities.
Grapevine is the response to the outdated and unfriendly systems of the business of freelance. So, we created the platform we wished existed back when we were freelancers.
We don't take commissions and it's free to join. We offer flat-rate, transparent pricing for companies. That means no commitments or hidden fees.

Our Mission
We are on a mission to redefine the status quo and create just and ethical work conditions and improve the life of others. Our goal is to modernize freelance business and establish the largest network of companies and creatives in the arts, design, entertainment, media, and production.
The creative industry has traditionally relied on word of mouth to find exceptional freelancers and vice versa for work opportunities. We are taking this underground network mainstream, pushing the freelance industry into a new paradigm.
We cater to highly specialized or niche creative fields that are often underrepresented in traditional or online marketplaces. Companies and agencies on Grapevine represent a broad array of industries, such as consumer goods, tech and healthcare.
Trustworthy
A human looks at every application to join Grapevine, whether from a company or a freelancer. Freelancers go through our highly selective process to join. During onboarding, a freelancer’s profile, quality of portfolio, and overall work is reviewed. You can rest assured that Grapevine has top agencies and companies and real, high quality freelancers. No outsourced or cheap labor.
Transparent pricing
