About Twine
Twine is a remote-first creative and digital talent marketplace operated by Clowdy Limited. It connects enterprise clients, agencies and startups with a global network of more than 1.4 million registered freelance specialists across 195 countries.
Originally launched as Clowdy, the platform was rebranded as Twine in 2016 as it evolved from a portfolio and collaboration service into a commercial marketplace for creative and technology work. Today, it supports both individual project commissions and multi-disciplinary teams for businesses seeking flexible specialist talent.
Talent and production services
Twine provides access to freelancers working across a broad range of disciplines, including:
- Visual effects, 3D assets, animation, motion graphics and video editing
- Graphic design, digital marketing and social media
- Web and mobile development, software engineering and interactive media
- Music, audio production and voice recording
Its curated matching service produces pre-vetted specialist shortlists and launch teams, while its marketplace supports fixed-rate and milestone-based projects across more than 150 specialisms.
Platform tools
The platform combines talent discovery with workflow and payment infrastructure. Twine Vault provides escrow protection, milestone management and billing support, with deliverables and approvals managed before funds are released. Ari, Twine’s AI job agent, assists creative and technology professionals with job matching and search.
AI data sourcing
Alongside creative commissions, Twine supplies human-generated training data and evaluation services for AI and machine-learning use cases. Its network can source material such as layered photorealistic VFX footage, CG elements and camera passes, voice and speech recordings, text, and human annotation or rating work.
Twine serves markets including film and television, visual effects, advertising, games, software, e-commerce and AI. As a talent network and data-services provider rather than a conventional production house, it enables clients to engage specialist freelancers and creative teams for projects ranging from content production to machine-learning dataset development.
