Company mission
To accelerate the delivery of digital transformation applications, giving companies the agility to thrive in a software-defined world.
Our take
As blockchain and AI technology develops and breaks into the mainstream, the issue facing companies from startup to enterprise level alike is how to build and manage software incorporating this new tech. Especially with tech talent short on the ground. Gigster is a software building service company specialising in precisely this.
Gigster focuses on AI, blockchain, and NFT projects, promising quality products, delivered efficiently by its team of freelancers, all within a fixed budget. It’s a smart premise, because executing projects with this kind of tech in-house is notorious in the industry for budgetary overspend and delayed deployment.
Gigster’s rapid growth over recent years is impressive - what is remarkable and crucial for a company offering freelance services, is the speed at which the company has pulled in major enterprise clients. Customers include Google, IBM, Nike, and the WEF, which have helped it shine in a marketplace where specialist software freelance companies like Toptal are trying to break through. With healthy funding, smart acquisitions and some impressive backers, Gigster has made remarkable progress in a lucrative field.
