GUIDE
Signal takes what you can already see on any Upwork job page and turns it into a fit score, a fair budget estimate, and a proposal draft — in five short steps.
Paste the job posting and fill in what you can see about the client — hire rate, rating, avg hourly rate paid, proposal count, and (optionally) their budget and last-viewed time.
Signal scores the job 0-100, explains why in plain language, and estimates a fair, competitive budget for the work — before you commit any more time.
Add your rate, portfolio link, name, years of experience, location, and "Your Edge" — anything you want naturally woven into the proposal. Save each field once and it's remembered for next time.
Paste up to four screening questions the client asked, if any. All optional — skip anything that doesn't apply.
Get a ready-to-send proposal, plus answers to any screening questions, right where you can copy and paste them straight into Upwork.
No, and that's intentional. Upwork's terms prohibit automated scraping or bots pulling job and account data, even with API access. Signal uses a manual paste-in workflow instead — you copy what you can already see on the job page, which keeps things fully compliant and keeps your Upwork account safe.
Only what you explicitly choose to save — your rate, portfolio link, name, years of experience, location, and Your Edge notes. Nothing else is stored or shared, and none of it leaves your own saved profile.
Yes. Signal works from whatever you paste and whatever you tell it about your own skills, so it adapts to most freelance categories, not just development work.
Edit it freely before sending — treat it as a strong first draft grounded in the job's actual details, not a final, un-editable output. Adding more detail to Your Edge usually improves how closely it matches your voice.
