Pakistan’s first community app built exclusively for its 2.3 million freelancers. A place to find your people, learn from those ahead of you, and stop doing this alone. Freelancely didn’t start from a business plan. It came from the real problems every Pakistani freelancer faces at every stage of their journey. • THE STORY BEHIND IT When financial pressure forces a student to pause their education, they often turn to online courses to learn freelancing. Most end up losing a full year and their savings to scam courses that offer nothing beyond basic setups and surface-level knowledge. We’ve lived this. That’s why our mission includes college-to-college awareness sessions across Pakistan, so students receive the right guidance before scammers reach them. When a freelancer starts working from home, their world shrinks to one room and one laptop. Years pass with no friends in the field, no community, and no guidance. Isolation and depression quietly become part of the process. We’ve lived this too. That’s why we’re building city-to-city and skill-to-skill communities, so no freelancer has to go through this journey alone. When a solo freelancer is buried under 10+ projects with no one telling them that building an agency is even an option, while freelancers in big cities are already running teams, that gap is real. Knowledge in Pakistan stays trapped in top cities and rarely reaches smaller ones. Freelancely’s mission is to carry that knowledge to the places it has never reached. • THE THREE MISSIONS • Awareness — So no student gets scammed • Community — So no freelancer works alone • Opportunity — So knowledge reaches every corner of Pakistan • WHAT’S INSIDE • City Groups — 80+ cities, reaching all the way to small towns like Minchinabad, Pir Mahal, Chishtian, and Kot Addu. Ask local questions, warn others about scams, find teammates, organize meetups, and become part of a community. • Skill Groups — Dedicated spaces for developers, designers, writers, and marketers. Share your work, get real feedback, and grow faster. • Expert Blogs — Practical guides on taxes, PSEB registration, pricing, contracts, scam alerts, power backup systems, and payment methods like Payoneer and Wise. • Community Feed — Updates from your city, your skill, and the people you follow. • In-person Meetups — Starting in Multan and expanding to Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Faisalabad, and Peshawar. Any city with 20+ members can host its own meetup. • Verified Badge System — Every freelancer is manually reviewed and given a verified skill badge. Agency owners can hire with confidence, and real freelancers finally get recognized for what they truly know. • Business Directory — Software houses, agencies, and studios across Pakistan can list their companies and find talent. • Night Mode — Because most of us are working at 2 a.m. anyway. • WHO IT’S FOR • Students exploring freelancing the right way • New freelancers feeling isolated • Experienced freelancers looking for community • Freelancers in smaller cities and remote areas • Agency owners looking for verified talent • BUILT FROM LIVED EXPERIENCE Created by Sagheer Malik, Owais Attari, Muhammad Tanveer, and Hashir Aziz. Pakistani freelancers who have lived through every one of these problems. CEO & Founder Sagheer Malik Presented by Sun Software Pvt. Ltd. The home that was missing is finally here.
