Taskbar is a decentralized freelance marketplace and gig-economy platform built on the Hedera blockchain network. It connects clients with freelancers for on-demand tasks and services in a more efficient, transparent, and equitable Web3 environment. It acts as an alternative to traditional freelance websites by addressing issues such as high commission fees and slow payment settlements.
Taskbar facilitates payments in HBAR, USDC, and other Hedera-based tokens, enabling near-instant settlement directly to a freelancer's wallet. A key feature is its on-chain escrow system, where funds for a job are locked in a smart contract and released automatically upon successful completion of the task, ensuring security for both parties. It also boasts a gamified reputation system implemented to build trust and incentivize positive user behavior.
To enhance transparency and trust, Taskbar utilizes the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create an immutable and auditable log of all critical platform activities, including task creation, proposals, and reviews. This forms the basis of a verifiable on-chain reputation system for freelancers.

GETSEEN is a Web3 social application that provides creators with tools to monetise their content and build dedicated communities. Its platform is designed to shift the power dynamic from traditional social media networks to the creators themselves, allowing them to establish their own digital economies.
The core service of GETSEEN is a no-code platform that enables creators to turn their content into Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) and launch their own social tokens. These tools allow creators to build token-gated communities, offering exclusive content and experiences to their most loyal fans. The platform also includes features for creating and managing decentralised autonomous organizations (DAOs), giving communities a direct say in the creator's projects and future direction. This suite of services provides a comprehensive solution for creators to engage with their audience and build sustainable, independent careers.
The GETSEEN platform is built entirely on the Hedera network. It utilises the Hedera Token Service (HTS) for the minting and management of all NFTs and social tokens, taking advantage of the network's low, predictable fees and fast transaction finality.
Turtle Moon is a Web3 software development and solutions company that functions as a core infrastructure builder for the Hedera ecosystem. It focuses on creating open-source tools, services, and standards that empower developers and accelerate the growth of decentralized applications on the Hedera network.
One of Turtle Moon's most significant contributions is the creation of the HCS-20 standard, a framework for issuing and managing fungible tokens using the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS). This standard provided an efficient, low-cost alternative to smart contracts for tokenization. They have also developed and open-sourced a suite of "Turtle Moon Tools" for NFT minting and management, making it easier for creators to launch projects on the network.
Beyond infrastructure, Turtle Moon is an active participant in the Hedera community, closely associated with leading the technical development for projects like HGraph Punks. By developing foundational protocols, open-sourcing their tools, and building applications, Turtle Moon plays a vital role in making the Hedera network more accessible, functional, and robust for developers and users alike.
