Last Revised: April 25, 2025
Welcome to CrowdPlat — a platform powered by CrowdPlat, Inc. (“CrowdPlat,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) that enables:
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to your access and use of the mobile application (the “App”), website (“Site”) and other online products and services (collectively, the “Service”) of Crowdplat.
BY DOWNLOADING THE APP OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THE TERMS BELOW. Please read all of the terms before you use the Service. If a term does not make sense to you, please let us know. If you don’t agree to all of the terms below, you may not use the Service.
We reserve the right to change these Terms from time to time. For example, we may need to change these Terms if we come out with a new feature. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of the policy and, in some cases, we will provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to our homepage or sending you an email notification). We encourage you to review these Terms periodically to stay informed about our practices.
Whenever we make changes to these Terms, they are effective when the revised Terms are posted unless we notify you otherwise. If you continue to use the Service after the revised Terms have been posted, then you will be deemed to have accepted the changes to these Terms.
For information about how we collect, use and share information about users of the Service, please see our Privacy Policy.
Through the Service, you can post a request (an “RFP”) for development and other technology-related services you would like to have performed. Independent contractors with project management experience (“Project Managers”) can review your RFP and submit questions to you about the RFP, and compete with other Project Managers to perform the project described in the RFP (the “Project”) by submitting a proposal (each, a “Proposal”) that includes the milestones for the Project, the fees the Project Manager desires to be paid, and the Project Manager’s background and experience related to the Project. Through the Service you can review each Proposal and fees associated with each Milestone (as defined below), which includes Crowdplat’s applicable commission (the “Commission”).
You may submit questions to each Project Manager to clarify the Proposal’s contents, and award the project to a Project Manager at your sole discretion. The selected Project Manager will then assemble a team of other independent contractors who use the Service (each, a “Freelancer”) to perform the Project. Once the Project Manager confirms the team, the Service will record the final terms agreed upon between you and the Project Manager including the total fees to be paid to the Project Manager and the Freelancers (the “Fees”), the milestones that must be accomplished (each, a “Milestone”) to trigger payment of the application portion of the Fees to the Project Manager and applicable Freelancers (the “Milestone Fees”) and the Commission.
You are responsible for your use of the Service. Project Managers and Freelancers are entirely responsible for any work or services they may perform for you. Crowdplat does not verify the accuracy or veracity of any information that a Project Manager may provide in a Proposal or otherwise provides to you, and will have no liability to you for any inaccurate or incomplete information that a Freelancer may provide to you.
For more information about the Service, please visit www.crowdplat.com
Through the Service, you may post job descriptions for contract or full-time roles (each, a “Job”) that you would like to fill. Job seekers (“Candidates”) can review the Job description and submit an application directly through the CrowdPlat platform.
Once a Candidate applies to a Job, the Service uses proprietary artificial intelligence to evaluate their suitability through a multi-step assessment process. The Service first compares the Candidate’s resume to the Job description using natural language processing (NLP) and semantic similarity analysis to determine alignment. Based on this analysis, the Service then generates a series of screening questions tailored to the role. These questions may be presented in either text or video format, and may include prompts that assess domain-specific knowledge, communication skills, and job fit.
Candidates respond to these questions through the platform—submitting written responses for text-based questions and recorded video responses for designated video prompts. The Service then evaluates the responses using AI models to assess relevance, structure, clarity, and alignment with the Job description. Each Candidate is assigned a score based on this evaluation.
The Service also includes built-in fraud detection mechanisms to help ensure the authenticity of Candidate submissions. These mechanisms include voice-liveness detection to identify voiceovers or lip-syncing in video responses, behavioral pattern analysis to flag the use of third-party tools or bots, and AI-generated text detection to identify potentially inauthentic written responses.
Once the evaluation is complete, the Service generates a composite score for each Candidate based on their resume match, written and video response scores, and fraud detection flags. Recruiters can view this ranked list of Candidates through the Service and may contact any Candidate at their discretion.
The Service also allows you to promote your Job externally. You may choose to publish your Job directly to LinkedIn via an API integration or generate a unique, job-specific application link (“Job Link”). The Job Link may be posted manually on LinkedIn or other platforms. When a Candidate clicks the Job Link, they will be redirected to the Service to complete the application and evaluation process as described above. The Service will automatically associate the Candidate’s application with the corresponding Job, and all scoring and fraud detection measures will be applied consistently.
You are solely responsible for your use of the Service and for reviewing all Candidate information before making a hiring decision. CrowdPlat does not verify the identity, qualifications, or responses of any Candidate and is not liable for any misrepresentation or inaccuracy in Candidate submissions.

If you discover or suspect any Service security breaches, please let us know as soon as possible.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY BECAUSE THEY REQUIRE YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH CROWDPLAT AND LIMIT THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM CROWDPLAT.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California and the United States of America, without resort to any conflict of law provisions.
In the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms or the Service, you and Crowdplat agree to consult and negotiate with each other and, recognizing your mutual interests, try to reach a solution satisfactory to both parties. If we do not reach settlement within a period of 60 days, then either of us may, by notice to the other demand mediation under the mediation rules of the American Arbitration Association in Santa Clara County, California. We both give up our right to litigate our disputes and may not proceed to arbitration without first trying mediation, but you and Crowdplat are NOT required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable and other relief from the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents. Whether the dispute is heard in arbitration or in court, you and Crowdplat will not commence against the other a class action, class arbitration or other representative action or proceeding.
If settlement is not reached within 60 days after service of a written demand for mediation, any unresolved controversy or claim will be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association before a single arbitrator in Santa Clara County, California. The language of all proceedings and filings will be English. The arbitrator will render a written opinion including findings of fact and law and the award and/or determination of the arbitrator will be binding on the parties, and their respective administrators and assigns, and will not be subject to appeal. Judgment may be entered upon the award of the arbitrator in any court of competent jurisdiction. The expenses of the arbitration will be shared equally by the parties unless the arbitration determines that the expenses will be otherwise assessed and the prevailing party may be awarded its attorneys' fees and expenses by the arbitrator. It is the intent of the parties that, barring extraordinary circumstances, arbitration proceedings will be concluded within 90 days from the date the arbitrator is appointed. The arbitrator may extend this time limit only if failure to do so would unduly prejudice the rights of the parties. Failure to adhere to this time limit will not constitute a basis for challenging the award. Consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration, pre-hearing information exchange will be limited to the reasonable production of relevant, non-privileged documents, carried out expeditiously.
For any disputes that are not handled by arbitration, you agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be filed only in the state and federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California and you hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of these Terms or the use or the Service.
You consent to our use of your name and logo on the Service and our marketing materials identifying you as a user of the Service, and you agree that we may issue a press release identifying you as a user of the Service.
Enforcement of these Terms is solely at Crowdplat’s discretion. Failure to enforce any part of these Terms in some instances does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce the same or other part of these Terms in other instances. If any provision of these Terms is or becomes unlawful, void or otherwise unenforceable (including the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations above), then that provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will continue in full force and effect. The section headings of these Terms are for reference purposes only and will not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Terms.
These Terms (and the other policies and terms referred to above) make up the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service, and they supersede any prior agreements that may have been made.
