Useme is a Polish fintech company based in Wrocław. The company owns platform and job marketplace Useme.com.

Useme was founded on June 28, 2013, in

Wroclaw by Przemysław Głośny.[1] Initially, it operated as a limited liability company.[2] On February 4, 2021, a joint-stock company Useme SA was also created.[3] From the beginning, the company was running Useme.com (formerly Useme.eu). In 2013, it has received 700,000 zlotys of funding (including about 480,000 in a non-refundable grant) from EU funds.[1]

In October 2021, the company began issuing shares through the equity

stock market listing in 2023.[8][9]

In 2020, the company generated revenue of PLN 32,445,703.64 and closed the year with a loss of PLN 254,944.74. This represents a 49% increase compared to 2019. In the second quarter of 2021, Useme generated 86% growth compared to last year's period. This translates into 168,923.13 zlotys of profit for that half-year.[6][10]

Useme.com

Useme.com is the first platform in Poland[1] and the largest in Central Europe[4][11][12][13] to connect freelancers with contractors and mediate the settlement of remote work contracts. The platform is sometimes mentioned in guidebooks and websites for freelancers.[14][15][16][17][18]

Useme.com aims to allow users to issue a VAT invoice without setting up a business. The service acts as an intermediary in settling freelancer's contract with the client and entering into a work contract with the freelancer. In turn, the client receives a VAT invoice issued by Useme.com on behalf of the freelancer.[1][14][19] Useme.com also allows users to post an offer on a job exchange. Principals can then choose a contractor from those who apply (bidding contest) and settle the work through the platform.[15]

Useme's creators produce the "Freelancing in Poland" survey and report,[13][20][21][22][23][24][25] published annually since 2014. The Computer Assisted Web Interview (CAWI) method is used to collect data for the report.[26]

From August 2022 to January 1, 2023, the platform was allowing Ukrainians living in Poland to settle contracts for free.[27][28]
