Freelance Pipeline Automation#

End-to-end freelance client discovery and proposal system for AI agents and independent professionals.

Lead Scoring Algorithm#

Leads are scored 0-100 based on:

• Skill Match (50 pts max) - How well job requirements match your skills
• Budget Quality (30 pts max) - Higher budgets score higher
• Recency (20 pts max) - Newer postings get priority

Leads scoring 70+ appear in the morning digest.

Commands#

bash

# Add a new lead manually
python scripts/freelance_pipeline.py add "Python Bot Development" "$500-1000" "python,bot,automation"

# Score a lead without adding to pipeline
python scripts/freelance_pipeline.py score "Web Scraper" "$200" "python,scraping"

# Get morning digest of qualified leads
python scripts/freelance_pipeline.py digest

# Update lead status through lifecycle
python scripts/freelance_pipeline.py status 3 proposal_sent
python scripts/freelance_pipeline.py status 3 accepted
python scripts/freelance_pipeline.py status 3 paid

# List all leads
python scripts/freelance_pipeline.py list
