Upwork is an American freelance marketplace formed in 2015 from the merger of Elance and oDesk, and it connects businesses with independent professionals in software development, design, writing, marketing and increasingly artificial intelligence work. Its revenue comes from taking a percentage of what clients pay freelancers, which means it has spent years balancing take rate against the incentive for established pairs to leave the platform and transact directly. Headquartered in San Francisco and listed on Nasdaq, it has been positioning itself around higher-value professional work rather than competing at the commodity end of the market.
