Gigwalk is a mobile crowdsourcing platform that was founded in 2010 and launched publicly in 2011 after raising $1.7 million in seed funding. It allows users to turn their phones into a moneymaker by finding nearby tasks or "gigs" to complete like taking photos or videos. Users can qualify for and complete gigs, getting paid around $20 per hour via PayPal, though Gigwalk keeps 30-40% per job as a fee. The platform operates in 41 U.S. states and is committed to changing how people can make money on the go with their smartphones.
