GigRadar — Upwork Client Inspector

Instant client intent scores, hire-rate red flags, client name extraction and proposal hooks for Upwork freelancers.

Stop wasting Connects on ghost listings. GigRadar inspects Upwork clients in real time and displays hiring intent scores, wage benchmarks, and proposal hooks directly on your feed. Upwork charges ~$0.15 per Connect, and modern listings routinely demand 8 to 16 Connects just to submit a proposal. Freelancers waste hundreds of dollars bidding on clients with 0% hire rates, unverified payment methods, and scam traps. GigRadar parses job cards client-side and calculates key metrics before you click or bid: ⚡ KEY FEATURES 1. Deterministic Client Intent Score (0–100) Calculates a real-time mathematical score based on lifetime hire rate, verified spend, payment status, and posting recency. 100% deterministic math — zero AI guessing. 2. Red-Flag & Connects-Waste Warnings Instant visual badges highlight: • Low Hire Rates (<25% red alert, <30% amber warning) • Over-saturated proposals (50+ proposals on dead listings) • Unverified payment methods • Off-platform scam attempts (Telegram / WhatsApp payment evasion) 3. Client First Name Extraction Cross-references past freelancer feedback to extract the client's real name. Start your pitch with "Hi Sarah," instead of generic greeting spam. 4. True Rate Benchmarking Compares advertised job budgets against what the client actually paid past freelancers on completed contracts. 5. 1-Click Proposal Hook Generator Generates three tailored, deterministic opening hooks for every listing (Direct, Problem-First, and Quick-Credibility). 6. BYOK AI Polish (Optional) Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic API key stored 100% locally in chrome.storage.local. --- 🔒 PRIVACY & SECURITY FIRST • Zero Telemetry: No user tracking, no analytics, no remote servers. • Safe & Local: Runs strictly in your browser context.
