We're an Advocate for Freelancers
HostJane's marketplace makes it easy for freelancers to control (and profit from) the deliverable Final Work they produce for Buyers.Make life easier for Buyers
Seller's can include IP ownership in the cost of the Listing
- Option 1 - Buyer Owns Rights license - Transfers all IP in Final Work to Buyer
Or, sell rights to Buyers
Sellers set their own pricing for different licensing tiers:
- Option 2: Personal License - Paid license that tells Buyer they can only use the Seller's Final Work in non-commercial, usually personal, projects.
- Option 3: Limited License - Paid license giving Buyer ability to use Seller's Final Work in a commercial venture, great for start-ups and SMEs.
- Option 4: Unlimited License - When the Buyer is a business that needs total control, this paid license helps Sellers earn more for their Final Work.
