From Scanner to Job Search Engine
GigRadar's Scanner does the job with its color-coded status system, which can get a bit confusing when you're managing multiple searches.
✨ Getmany's Job Search Engine takes the same core concept and makes it crystal clear. Your searches are organized into distinct categories: active, not configured, and paused bidders.
Our Jobs Preview section goes a step further by showing you exactly how many Connects needed to bid on each job.
Keywords Made Simple
Here's where the difference really shows. GigRadar spreads your keywords across a single line with exclusions tucked away in a separate section. When you're managing dozens of keywords, this workflow becomes a maze.
✨ Getmany consolidates everything into one intuitive space using a clean tag format. Adding, editing, or removing keywords takes seconds, and you can configure searches across skills, titles, and descriptions simultaneously – no jumping between sections.
Filtering That Works How You Think
GigRadar's Jobs, Client, and Vendor categories work, but they're not exactly intuitive when you're trying to find specific opportunities quickly.
✨ Getmany restructures filtering into logical groups: Job Duration, Budget, Client, and Hiring Preferences. It's like the difference between a cluttered toolbox and one where every tool has its proper place.
We've also added several filters you won't find anywhere else:
Job Description Language: Perfect for filtering English-only jobs
Client Hire History & Time Zones: More detailed client preference filters
English Proficiency Matching: Align jobs with your language skills
Getmany Score Filtering: Use our 1-5 quality algorithm to focus on the best opportunities
Scoring Systems: Basic vs AI-Powered
GigRadar's percentage-based scoring compares jobs relatively within each search – useful, but limited in scope.
✨ Getmany's AI-powered scoring analyzes job scope, budget quality, description clarity, client history, and ratings to give you a meaningful 1-5 score. The real advantage? You can filter jobs by score and use it to automatically boost only high-quality opportunities.
Bidding Settings: All-at-Once vs Step-by-Step
GigRadar consolidates everything under one Auto Bidder section, which can feel overwhelming when you're trying to configure complex settings.
✨ Getmany breaks the process into nine focused steps, letting you perfect each aspect without information overload.
Here's what makes each step special:
Step 1: Bidding Settings includes team collaboration features like Invite Manager on Reply to automatically add team members to client chats, plus our Auto Reply feature that sends automatic first messages when clients respond to your proposals – ensuring you never miss engagement opportunities.
Step 2: Terms & Boosting introduces Smart Terms that auto-calculate your bid based on your target rate and the client's budget, plus Proposal Boosting with daily Connect limits and minimum Getmany Score requirements to control spending while prioritizing quality opportunities.
Step 3: AI Settings offers 8 AI models including Claude 4 Opus and OpenAI o3, with adjustable temperature and Pure/Enhanced versions. The standout features here are AI Guidance (helping AI match your agency's voice while adapting to each client's style) and AI Decision Maker (teaching the AI to understand job types you want to avoid based on context).
Steps 4-6 cover proposal customization: the Cover Letter Builder with templates and length preferences, Client Questions database for personalized responses, and Attachments for showcasing your work samples.
Steps 7-9 handle the final details: Delay settings review, enhanced Notifications (including Discord integration), and a comprehensive Summary before activation.
This methodical approach prevents the common mistake of buried settings and ensures every feature gets the attention it deserves.
Analytics That Paint the Full Picture
GigRadar's Dashboard covers the basics with standard metrics and straightforward data presentation.
✨ Getmany's Analytics section transforms your data into actionable insights.
Our Performance Overview includes interactive line graphs and funnel views tracking proposals from sent to hired. You can segment by freelancer, business manager, or job search, track view and reply rates, and monitor Connect usage – all with visual tools that make patterns immediately obvious.
The Enhanced Proposals Analytics goes deeper with filtering by day and country, proposal type, and comprehensive status tracking. It also includes job search names alongside job titles for better context.
We've replaced confusing acronyms (PVR, LRR, CPR) with plain English terms like View Rate, Reply Rate, and Cost/Reply.
Beyond the Basics: Getmany Exclusives
Several features set Getmany apart entirely:
Smart Delays & Limits: Create natural application patterns while maintaining safe account thresholds and optimizing performance.
Business Manager Settings: View and update your Business Manager’s profile information directly within the platform.
Enhanced Notifications: Discord integration plus interactive features like job skipping via Don't Apply buttons in your notification channels.
Advanced CRM: Direct HubSpot and Pipedrive integrations beyond basic webhooks.
Trust & Security First
Platform security isn't negotiable. All Getmany operations comply with legal standards, keeping your Upwork account safe and your personal information protected. Every feature is built with strict ethical guidelines to ensure platform compliance.
Making the Move
Switching platforms always involves a learning curve, but you're not starting from scratch. Our migration team handles the technical details, transferring your existing settings so you can focus on exploring new features rather than recreating old workflows.
