About TapChief

We are on a mission to disrupt the 1 Trillion Dollar Service Economy with an interplay of products revolving around content, community, and commerce. TapChief products serve a two-sided marketplace, on one side we enable professionals to do what they love, by participating in deep interest-based communities, working on flexible work opportunities, and provide them with a suite of tools to monetize their expertise on their own terms. We also create a significant impact on the quality of life of our users by creating a reliable, alternate income source which can help them pay for their livelihood, care for a kid’s education or just help them save up for that much-awaited vacation.

On the other side, we empower companies of all sizes, from the garage startup to the largest enterprises, to access great talent, wherever it is, to work on business projects for faster innovation and agile execution. Using TapChief, companies find themselves a quick phone call, message or an in-person meeting away from the right people for mission-critical projects.
