VetaHub: Web Platform

A verified professionals network built from the ground up — identity verification, a discovery feed and direct hiring, designed to cut out fake profiles and agency markups.

★★★★★Loved by the client

Project brief.

VetaHub is a UK professionals network that connects verified freelancers and service providers directly with clients. They needed a complete web platform — user accounts, an identity-verification system that awards a trusted "V badge", a discovery feed to find pros by skill and location, and built-in messaging and hiring — all wrapped in a clean, modern, trustworthy interface.

Challenges & Solutions

Every project has a few problems to solve. Here is what we ran into on this build and how we handled it.

1

Making verification feel trustworthy

The whole platform hinges on trust. We designed a clear identity-verification flow and a distinctive "V badge" that appears throughout profiles and the feed, so users instantly know who has been checked.

2

Helping clients find the right pro

A network is only useful if you can find people. We built a discovery feed with filtering by skill and location, plus rich public profiles and portfolios, so clients reach the right professional quickly.

3

Enabling direct, intermediary-free hiring

The pitch is no agencies and no markups. We built integrated messaging and hiring flows so clients and professionals connect and start work directly on the platform.
