For Creators

Application process

Getting on vibechckd starts with an application. The process is straightforward:

• Submit your portfolio with links to your best work.
• Your submission goes through an AI-assisted review that evaluates portfolio quality, code standards, and design taste.
• You will be notified of approval or rejection. Approved creators receive a verified badge and appear in the gallery.

Setting up your profile

Once approved, configure your profile from the dashboard:

• Name and bio -- introduce yourself and your expertise.
• Specialties -- select from Frontend, Backend, Security, Automation, or Full Stack.
• Rate -- set your hourly or project rate. This is displayed on your public profile.
• Social links -- connect your GitHub, Twitter/X, portfolio site, or other profiles.

Managing your portfolio

Your portfolio is the primary way clients evaluate your work. Navigate to Dashboard > Portfolio to manage it:

• Add projects with titles, descriptions, and multiple asset types (images, PDFs, live previews).
• Reorder portfolio items by dragging to highlight your strongest work first.
• Each project can include multiple assets for a comprehensive showcase.

The verified badge

Approved creators receive a verified badge displayed next to their name across the platform. This badge signals to clients that the creator has passed the vetting process and meets vibechckd quality standards.

Getting discovered

• Your profile appears in the public gallery once approved.
• Clients can find you through search, specialty filters, and browsing.
• A strong portfolio and complete profile improve visibility.

Availability settings

Control how clients see your availability from your dashboard:

• Available -- actively taking on new projects.
• Selective -- open to the right opportunities but not actively seeking.
• Unavailable -- not accepting new work at this time.

For Clients

Browsing the gallery

The gallery is your starting point for finding talent. Every creator listed has been vetted and approved.

• Use specialty filters to narrow results by expertise (Frontend, Backend, Security, etc.).
• Search by name or keyword to find specific creators.
• Click any profile card to view their full portfolio, bio, rate, and availability.

Building a team

vibechckd lets you assemble a team of creators organized by specialty:

• Navigate to Build a Team from the navigation.
• Select creators for each role slot (Frontend, Backend, Security).
• Review your assembled team before initiating a project.

Initiating a project

Once your team is assembled, you can kick off a project directly from the team builder. This creates a project dashboard where you can manage tasks, deliverables, and communication.

Managing projects

• Track tasks and their statuses from a centralized dashboard.
• Review and approve deliverables submitted by your team.
• Communicate with your team through in-platform chat.

Vetting Process

What we evaluate

Every application is reviewed against four criteria:

• Portfolio quality -- the overall caliber and presentation of submitted work.
• Code standards -- clean, maintainable, and well-structured code.
• Design taste -- visual sensibility, attention to detail, and polish.
• Reliability -- track record of delivering quality work consistently.

AI-assisted scoring

Applications are evaluated with the help of AI scoring to ensure consistent, objective assessments across all submissions. This assists human reviewers in making final decisions.

Review timeline

Expect a decision within 3-5 business days of submitting your application. You will be notified by email.

The verified badge

Approved creators receive a verified badge that appears next to their name on profile cards, the gallery, and within projects. It is a signal of trust and quality to clients.

Maintaining verification

Verification is not permanent without standards. Creators are expected to maintain the quality that earned their badge. Client feedback and ongoing work quality contribute to continued verification status.

Team Builder

The Team Builder lets clients assemble a project team from vetted creators, organized by specialty.

How to assemble a team

• Navigate to Build a Team from the main navigation.
• The builder presents role slots: Frontend, Backend, and Security.
• Browse filtered galleries for each slot and select creators.
• Review your assembled roster before launching the project.

Initiating a project from your team

Once all desired slots are filled, you can create a project directly from the team builder. This populates the project dashboard with your selected team members and their assigned roles.

Project Management

Project dashboard

Each project has a dedicated dashboard that serves as the central hub for all activity. From here you can view your team, manage tasks, review deliverables, and communicate.

Tasks

Tasks are the building blocks of project work:

• Create tasks with clear descriptions and assign them to team members.
• Track status through three stages: To Do, In Progress, and Done.
• Both clients and creators can update task statuses as work progresses.

Deliverables

• Creators submit deliverables for client review.
• Clients can review, provide feedback, and approve deliverables.
• All deliverable history is tracked within the project.

Team roster and roles

The project dashboard displays all team members with their assigned roles and specialties. This provides a clear overview of who is responsible for what.

Portfolio

Adding portfolio items

Navigate to Dashboard > Portfolio to add and manage your work. Each portfolio item includes a title, description, and one or more assets.

Asset types

Portfolio items support multiple asset types to showcase your work effectively:

• PDF -- upload design documents, case studies, or presentations.
• Image -- screenshots, mockups, or visual designs.
• Video -- demos, walkthroughs, or recorded presentations.
• Live Preview -- embed a live URL that renders as an interactive iframe.
• Figma -- embed Figma files directly in your portfolio.

Live preview iframes

When you add a Live Preview asset, the URL is rendered in an iframe on your public profile. This lets clients interact with your work directly without leaving the platform.

Portfolio ordering

Drag and drop portfolio items to reorder them. Your strongest work should appear first, as this is what clients see when they visit your profile.

Chat & Communication

In-platform messaging

Every project includes a built-in chat for team communication. Messages are scoped to the project, keeping conversations organized and relevant.

AI assistant

The project chat includes an AI assistant that can suggest task breakdowns, help with delegation, and provide context-aware recommendations for your project workflow.

File sharing

Share files directly within project conversations to keep all assets and references in one place.

Billing

Billing integration via Whop is coming soon. Planned features include:

• Project-based payments between clients and creators.
• Automated invoicing and payment tracking.
• Milestone-based billing tied to deliverable approvals.
