The Future of Gig Work with Adam Jackson

The Future of Gig Work with Adam Jackson

The gig economy involves independent contractors engaging in flexible jobs. Today gig workers often get work from centralized platforms that facilitate the process of connecting workers with employers in exchange for a fee.  Some workers find the relationship between worker and platform to be adversarial in nature since the platform can establish and enforce rules at its own discretion.

In this episode, I interview Adam Jackson, Founder & CEO of Freelance Labs, builders of Braintrust.  We discuss the state of the gig economy and his vision for how Braintrust can create a new kind of marketplace.
