Escrow for freelance work
Get paid when the work is proven, not when someone remembers.
The client's money is held by PayPal. AI checks the pull request against the agreed criteria. A person approves the release, and PayPal pays the freelancer out.

How it works
- STEP 1
Agree
AI turns the brief into acceptance criteria both sides can check.
- STEP 2
Fund
The client's PayPal payment is authorized and held, not charged.
- STEP 3
Deliver
The freelancer submits the work as a GitHub pull request.
- STEP 4
Verify
AI checks the work against every criterion and explains why.
- STEP 5
Release
An admin approves; PayPal captures and pays the freelancer.
- STEP 6
Defend
Appeals and PayPal disputes get a response drafted from the record.
For clients
Pay for outcomes you wrote down, not promises.
- Nothing is charged until the work passes and an admin approves the release.
- Edit the AI's criteria before you fund. They freeze once money is held.
- Disagree with a verdict? Appeal before any money moves.
For freelancers
Know the money exists before you start.
- The hold is visible from day one, with its expiry date.
- Each criterion is judged separately, with links to the evidence in your diff.
- Payout goes straight to your PayPal email on release.
