Trends & timing

Rate medians, a posting-velocity heatmap by hour and day, keyword time-series. A clear answer to “when should I be online today” — backed by your watcher’s actual data.

How it works

Four steps, two minutes to set up.

From paste-bin URL to first ping in under thirty seconds. Everything runs on our side — no servers to stand up, no browser extension to install, and no Upwork login to hand over. Your account never touches Upwatcher.

  1. 01Paste

    Paste your Upwork search URL.

    Anything — “senior react remote”, “rust embedded”, “figma to webflow”. Use the same filters you already do on Upwork; we pick up the URL as-is.

  2. 02Watch

    We monitor it 24/7.

    A persistent browser keeps your search tab open and pushes every new posting the moment it appears — summarised, deduped and ready to score.

    142 jobs watched · 3 new in last hour
  3. 03Score

    Each job gets a fit score.

    Every brief gets a profile-aware fit score with a one-sentence reason. Focus on the best matches and skip the rest.

  4. 04Apply

    Get pinged. Apply first.

    Telegram, Discord or Slack alert with the brief, the score and an AI draft proposal ready to edit and send — while the client is still online.

Account-safe

The only Upwork tool that doesn’t risk your account.

Every “auto-bidder” on the market works by logging into Upwork as you and clicking Apply on briefs it finds. That’s a TOS violation by construction — Upwork’s policy is unambiguous about scripts running under your session. Upwatcher reads public postings on its own infrastructure and sends you a draft to submit yourself, the way Upwork expects. Your account never knows we exist.

  • No login

    No Upwork credentials, no OAuth, no session cookie. Your account doesn’t know we exist.

  • No extension

    Nothing to install in your browser. No script runs under your IP or your fingerprint.

  • No auto-bidding

    We surface and draft. You read, edit and submit yourself — the way Upwork expects.

Free tier
no card · no trial timer

One niche, on us. Forever.

Every account starts on a free tier with one watcher and a live alert channel — the actual product, not a trial. You can run a single niche through Upwatcher indefinitely without ever entering a card. The paid tiers, when they ship, add more watchers, AI proposal drafts, profile optimization, market PDFs and timing analytics — but the free seat itself stays.

If you sign up before the paid tiers go live, your free seat is also pinned at launch pricing — see the pricing section for how founder accounts lock in.

1 watcher

Paste any Upwork search URL — “senior react remote”, “rust embedded”, whatever your niche actually is — and we keep a tab open on it 24/7. The watcher stays yours forever; we never time it out.

Every new brief in that search lands in your Telegram, Discord or Slack within seconds of the posting going live. Pick the channel that already has your attention — no extra inbox to babysit.

Quiet hours

Set a per-watcher DND window in your own timezone. Pings are either dropped silently or deferred until the window ends — your nights and weekends stay quiet without you turning the alerts off.

Live job feed

Everything the watcher discovers lands in a deduped, searchable feed inside the app — same data the alerts come from, browsable any time. Nothing is paywalled behind a “view full job” upgrade.

Pricing

Free now. Founders lock in launch pricing.

Free gets you one watcher and the live job feed — enough to test it on a single keyword. Paid tiers ship before public launch; anyone on the free tier when that happens keeps the launch price for as long as their account stays active.

FAQ
things people ask first

Honest answers to the obvious objections.

If the question you have isn’t here, the answer is almost certainly no, we don’t do that — by design. Upwatcher is built around what Upwork already lets you do, just faster and with less tab-refreshing.

  • 01Is this allowed by Upwork's Terms of Service?
    Yes — we never log in as you, never auto-bid, never run anything in your browser. Upwatcher reads public job postings on its own infrastructure and pushes a draft you submit yourself, the way Upwork expects.
  • 02Does it work for fixed-price jobs?
    Yes — fixed and hourly. The fit score and the proposal drafts work the same way for both. The only difference is which payment fields the brief carries.
  • 03What does the LLM see from my profile?
    Only what you paste into the profile editor — your skills, your rate band, sample portfolio descriptions. No Upwork session, no inbox, no client history. The LLM never touches your account.
  • 04How is this different from an auto-bidder?
    Auto-bidders log in as you and click Apply on every brief they find. That's a TOS violation by construction and gets accounts flagged. Upwatcher only surfaces jobs and drafts replies — you stay in the loop, your account stays clean.
  • 05What if my niche is too small or too broad?
    Watchers dedupe per posting URL, so you can run several niche searches in parallel without spammed alerts. If a niche is broad, narrow it down with the same filters you'd use on the Upwork search page — the URL we read carries them as-is.

Stop refreshing. Start applying first.

Your competitors are still on the search tab.

Two minutes to paste your first Upwork search URL. From the next posting onward, you read briefs while the client is still online — not after the queue closes.
