I’m ready to turn GigWorkIndia.com into a working engine for India-based freelancers. The site must let me capture detailed sign-up data, vet and approve each applicant, then match and assign paid tasks from a single admin dashboard. This is a true application, not a brochure—clean code, fast loads and a logical database structure are essential. Preferred stack is WordPress with custom plugins or a headless approach, yet I’m open to any lightweight alternative you can justify that keeps hosting costs and maintenance low. Core functions I need in the first build: • Task allocation with real-time status updates • Approvals management to onboard or suspend talent • Data analysis dashboards that surface skill gaps, task turnaround and other KPIs • Easy categorisation and filtering of gig workers by skill, rating and availability Roles to implement: • Admins – full control of data, workflow setup and analytics • Employers/Clients – post tasks, track progress and release payments • Gig workers – create profiles, accept tasks, submit deliverables All screens should be mobile-friendly, secured behind role-based permissions and ready for future API integrations (payments, messaging, marketing automation). Provide source code, deployment notes and a brief walk-through video so I can maintain the platform after launch. If this scope excites you, outline the stack you propose, the plugins or libraries you would leverage, and a realistic timeline for each milestone. Also Need a mobile application for the same.
