Synapse Introduction
A platform for the creation of groups with common interests. In Synapse, you can build professional networks to create services and products to sell worldwide or to support a social cause. In each group members get a monthly rating from their peers to build up a reputation. Each group has tasks to coordinate their efforts, which can be billable or not.

We are not a job board site
We are different from freelancing sites that create a race to the bottom where becoming the cheapest rate per hour is what makes a professional competitive.
