Services

Three services. Done properly.

We keep the scope narrow on purpose. Every freelancer here does one or more of these, with AI tools doing the heavy lifting.

a · web

Website design

Business websites, landing pages and online stores — built with AI-assisted workflows, so an SME site ships in days.

  • Business & company websites
  • Landing pages that convert
  • WordPress & modern static sites
  • Hosting, domains & DNS done right
b · marketing

Digital marketing

Content, campaigns and search visibility — produced and optimised with AI, measured with real numbers.

  • Social media content & management
  • Google & Meta ad campaigns
  • SEO & Google Business profiles
  • Email & WhatsApp marketing
c · agents

AI agents & automation

Put the repetitive parts of your business on autopilot — so no customer message, follow-up or invoice slips through.

  • WhatsApp & website chatbots that answer customers 24/7
  • Automated follow-ups, quotes & invoicing
  • Lead capture connected to your phone
  • Custom AI workflows for your business
The verification bar

Anyone can claim skills.
We ask for proof.

"Verified" on Ujiajiri means one thing: the freelancer showed us real work and how they built it. Here is the bar every listed freelancer has cleared.

a · portfolio

Real portfolio

Live links to work they have actually shipped — websites you can visit, campaigns with results.

b · AI work sample

Built with AI, demonstrably

At least one project built with Claude Code, ChatGPT, an open-source LLM or any equivalent AI tool — plus a short write-up of exactly how it was used. A checkbox proves nothing; a build does.

c · accountability

Personally reviewed

Every application is read by a person, not a bot. Freelancers who don't deliver for clients are de-listed. Simple.
