About GigWorkersGuide
Your guide to the gig economy, your gateway to gig business mastery.
Straight up, this site is built, and operated by one single dude who has already spent years working the online gig economy platforms for himself and I still do, every day at Prolific, CloudResearch, UserTesting, you name it. I know the hustle. I know precisely what it’s like to juggle so many platforms, lose track of what you’re actually making, and wonder if this is even worth your time.
Spoiler: It is. But only if you run it like a business.
💡 The Problem We Solved
Every gig platform has its own dashboard. Some show earnings in GBP. Some in USD. Some don’t show anything until you cash out. Trying to answer “how much did I make this month?” requires opening 15 tabs, downloading CSVs, and building spreadsheets.
I got tired of it. So I built GigWorkersGuide.
🎁 What We Offer
Free:
A curated directory of dozens of gig platforms organized by earning potential. No signup required.
Paid ($4.99/month or $49.99/year):
A unified earnings dashboard. Upload your CSVs, enter your balances, and see everything in one place. Today, this week, this month, all-time. No spreadsheets. No guesswork.
Pro Savings Tip: If you’re a pro gigger, choose the Annual Plan and you’ll only pay for 10 months, but get a whole year (12 months), that’s two “free” months and a 17% savings over the Monthly plan!
We constantly improve the dashboards and add new things. You’ll get all that on both plans at no extra charge too, whenever new updates are released!
Both plans always include a free no-risk, no charge 3 day free trial too, so you can check it out. If you cancel within three days on our site or via your PayPal subscriptions page, the trial will end and you will not be charged a dime. If you stick with us, it’s automated PayPal recurring without hassle, and cancelling is a single click in your account on our site OR on the PayPal subscriptions page in your account at PayPal.com – there is literally zero risk greater to try this out. Like, none. At all. If you get big mad about anything, I’ll refund your payment, no question. It’s $4.99 bro, I’m not gonna fight you for it. I want you to like it here, ya know?
🔒 Your Data, Your Control
We store your earnings securely — and you can delete everything anytime.
When you upload a CSV or enter earnings manually, that data is saved to your account so it’s there the next time you open the dashboard. We never sell it, never share it with third parties, and never use it for anything other than powering your dashboard.
What we store: Your email, password, which platforms you’re tracking, and your earnings history.
You can permanently delete any or all of your data at any time from your account settings. Hard delete — gone from our servers, not just hidden.

If you’re making money online and want to actually know how much, this is for you.
“Ok, but how do I know you won’t might rip me off!”
Look, I am a semi-retired career developer who has been making web apps for other people for almost 40 years now. It was time to make my own as I approach retirement and this app is that personal project come to life.
At 57 years old and twice divorced with a 40 year tech career behind me, I don’t do BS, I don’t do fraud, I don’t want to sell your data or rip you off. I am never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around or desert you.
I just want to make a cool tool I personally needed, wanted and use every day, because yes, I still do studies. This is hardly Amazon.com over here, I hope to eventually get a couple hundred subscribers and run my little studies and dashboards business from my tiny retirement cottage in Costa Rica in a few years, not trying to support millions of users or set up some crazy kind of scam based on scheming a bunch of folks, this niche doesn’t even support that many people.
So it would be REALLY stupid of me to make ALL this stuff just with the intent to be a baddie, and rob you. That’s just illogical, irrational and to be fair, kind of dumb. if I was gonna rob folks, it would be on TikCrock with a Slopify store full of knock-off imported trash.
This is not that. Never was, never will be. So, “Trust me, Bro!” but seriously, think about it, if you were making a web based scam, is a bunch of boring AF but useful math dashboards what you’d try to do it with? LOL, yeah, no.
So fuhgeddaboudit, let’s get to gigging together, and make some of that wi-fi bread online, alright? Alright. Good talk!
Now go get to work, giggers! We’ve got money to shake out of Academia and Corporate wallets for our time and attention.
As the POTUS likes to say: “Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Respectfully, your humble host and gigging guide,
Corky K (aka “Sig” as in, the signal in the noise)
