The Opportunity

Problem

Remote solopreneurs can't access affordable, tailored health and liability insurance for distributed workforces, leading to high premiums or coverage gaps when hiring international freelancers.

Solution

GigGuardPro scans your freelancer contracts and platforms for compliance risks, then bundles recommended health/liability insurance with one-click setup. It integrates with Upwork/Fiverr for auto-syncing hires and ensures gap-free coverage. Solopreneurs get peace of mind with tailored protection at startup-friendly prices.
