Proving the skeptics wrong

I’m skeptical about the quality of work I’ll get.

We only work with top talent. Candidates include students and graduates from top schools who bring academic excellence and prior real-world experience. Many have built companies, raised capital, run programs, and worked with leading organizations.

I'm busyβ€”is this going to take a lot of time?

We use AI to screen and match candidates instantly when a new project is listed. Then, our comprehensive template and resources library enables you and your talent to create value from day one.

I probably have to wait months to get candidates!

Candidates have been matched in under 24 hours. For more niche projects, the process may take 2 to 4 weeks. To maximize exposure, we offer various promotional options, including featuring your projects in our newsletter, highlighting them on our platform, and leveraging our university partnerships.

I'm not a startup or nonprofit, can I still use Paths?Β 

Yes, you can still use Paths. Paths is designed to connect talent with verified organizations, including established companies, for short-term, flexible projects that provide real-life value.

How do I ensure the project stays on track?

Standard check-ins and feedback sessions ensure work aligns with expectations. We offer free resources and templates that enhance clarity and accountability for all team members.

Is this a long-term commitment?

Our projects are designed to be short-term, delivering results without long-term commitments. For ongoing support, you can initiate additional projects as needed. Yes - you can re-engage the same talent for multiple projects!

Kick Off Your Project
