Pros

1. You can choose how much you work, and how much you charge 2. They don't take commission

Cons

1. Your quote will never get picked unless it is at or below the suggested rate by Flitto which is often barely above the national minimum wage if you calculate the time it takes to read, send quotes & do the translation. There is no incentive to provide high quality translations, and you often simply waste time sending quotes. 2. Provided they don't charge commission to the translators, it is understandable that they own the IP of your translated work and sell it off for data / use it to develop their AI translation technology. However, since they rely completely on their translators for their IP and income, they should at least grant their translators a sliver of respect. Their customer service provides the most unpleasant experience, almost proudly treating their translators as disposable.

Pros

They give you free snacks.

Cons

They are clueless about the linguistic industry. They just don't know what they want to do. And they act like they are too proud to care. One thing they do relatively well is making themselves look like a prospective start-up (which sounds sad because they are too old to look like a startup anymore).

Pros

They pay relatively quickly when they pay you at all.

Cons

They falsely accuse freelancers of violating their rules and attempt to dock your pay for it. Their pay system is couched in an Itchy & Scratchy Dollars system to obscure what you’re actually earning and how low the pay is. They pay far below the industry standards. All emails from PMs are AI generated; it’s impossible to speak to an actual human being when you have a question or concern. The true bottom of the barrel of the industry.
