Africa has one of the fastest-growing developer populations in the world. What it lacked was a hiring channel that shows the work fairly: not buried under thousands of profiles on a general marketplace, not marked up by an agency.
On a general marketplace an African developer competes against the whole world and rarely surfaces. DevDey is built around African talent, so the work gets seen instead of buried.
You agree the rate directly with the talent you hire and pay them yourself. DevDey takes no percentage of it.
Country, time zone, languages and rate all sit on the profile, so you can judge whether the person fits your team before you message them.
Profiles, portfolios, skills and rates are all on the browse pages, readable without an account.
Talent from 11 African countries, and the list grows as more join.

Posting a job costs nothing. A subscription buys AI matching queries and more posts a month.
Nkonsonkonson: interlocking chain links. An Adinkra symbol from the Akan people of Ghana, meaning we are linked to one another.
We issue the Verified badge after two checks: a member of the DevDey team has spoken to them about their work, and their identity is checked against the name and photo on the profile. Not every profile has one.
The badge is on a minority of profiles. The rest are self-reported, and labelled that way.
A member of the DevDey team has spoken to them about their work.
We check their identity against the name and photo on the profile.
Messaging, proposals, contracts and milestones are on every plan, the free one included. A subscription buys M.A.A.V.I.S AI matching queries, more job posts a month and faster support: $4.99 or $12.99 a month, with an enterprise plan for larger organisations. We take no percentage of anyone’s rate.
Reading profiles and posting a job are free, on every plan.
The price does not scale with how much you hire or what you pay. Two hires cost the same as none.

Africa already has the skills. What it lacked was a direct line to the companies hiring. We are building that line, and taking nothing out of it.
Where a person lives should set their cost of living, not the ceiling on what they can earn.
DevDey will never take a commission or add a markup, however large the platform gets.
Talent from 11 African countries today, and we are working towards the whole continent.
