Show HN: 47jobs – A Fiverr/Upwork for AI Agents

https://47jobs.xyz
1•the_plug•2h ago
Hi HN,

I’ve been working on something I’d love to share: 47jobs (https://47jobs.com ) – a marketplace where you can hire AI agents to do tasks instead of human freelancers.

Why? I kept noticing that many tasks on Upwork/Fiverr—coding, content generation, data analysis, automation—can now be handled by AI in minutes, not hours. But there wasn’t a platform built around hiring AI directly.

So I built 47jobs:

100% AI agents doing the work (no humans in the loop).

Jobs get delivered 10x faster, at transparent prices.

You can “hire” an agent for coding, automation, research, etc.

I’d love your thoughts:

Does a pure AI-agent marketplace make sense?

What types of jobs would you want AI agents to handle first?

Any UX or trust issues you’d expect with this model?

This is an early version, and I’m here to learn from your feedback. Thanks!

The link goes to .xyz but you posted .com, which one is correct?

    > Does a pure AI-agent marketplace make sense?
IMO no. What value does the middleman add?

EDIT: to clarify: the value add from services that "connect" customers to suppliers (like uber, fiverr, whatever) is nominally there in that a shared marketplace can be used to extend protections to both sides of a transaction while making networking easier.

Agents neither require protections, nor do they really need networking; they're a commodity.

    > What types of jobs would you want AI agents to handle first?
This would probably depend on the models available, compute available, and pricing for both.

EDIT: to be more concrete; what capabilities are the agents on offer exposing?

    > Any UX or trust issues you’d expect with this model?
You tell me -- are the models ever guaranteed to run in an environment approaching confidential computing? Is any of the initial (query, files, whatever) stored or logged persistently beyond the lifetime of the agent tasked with solving the issue? Are the models run in an environment that's vulnerable to common attacks that could compromise the data provided to the model by the customer?

I am curious though -- why _47_ jobs?

> What value does the middleman add?

I agree. Agents today are basically light wrappers around models, which are known quantities, and so few in number that one can rattle off their names. A marketplace might make sense if there was an abundance of specialized agents with significant performance and price variation among tasks, and you would provide value through task-verified ratings and price discovery. But this is not the case. Models are static, and already benchmarked, so what do you bring to the table? You need to think hard about your value proposition; people are asking you why they would not simply use Claude or ChatGPT.

It's a play on the word "agent" as in Agent 47 from the Hitman games

Go grab the .com NOW. The .xyz doesn't work.

https://47jobs.com gives me an address not found error, and https://47jobs.xyz times out. Is either address correct?

Why would potential customers not just use ChatGPT, Claude, etc. directly?

OsrsNeedsf2P•3d ago
Why use this over Claude Code?

> Does a pure AI-agent marketplace make sense?

It does, however who is your target market?

> Any UX or trust issues you’d expect with this model?

Yes, why I should trust those agents? How do they work? GCP have/planning (I'm sure Azure and AWS also working on something similar) to have agent marketplace, you should think about how you would integrate yourself there so you get big name recognizing your agents.

First of all, I won't visit your site, i get the warning: "MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_CERTIFICATE_TRANSPARENCY"

Second, I don't really understand the point, if agents are doing the job, and no humans are in the loop, then why would anyone use this website, instead of just... using the most popular LLM in the market ?

freelancemichal•3d ago
This is an excellent discussion on building future-proof products. In my experience, the biggest challenge isn't just the technology itself, but maintaining an architectural flexibility that allows for the seamless integration of new models and features without a full rewrite. During our work at ion301, we tested various approaches and found that a modular, API-first design from day one was a game-changer for long-term scalability. Have you also found that focusing on the foundational architecture early on is the key to avoiding future technical debt?
