Abroad.Legal vs triptap

To help job seekers multiply their chances of being hired abroad, we created a database of companies that accept workers from foreign countries and provide support in obtaining work visas and permits.

Every year millions of people seek job opportunities abroad in developed economies. They spend tons of time applying for positions they will never be hired for. The reason is that the majority of companies don't consider foreign candidates. But there is no way to know it in advance.

To help job seekers multiple their chances to be hired abroad, we created a database of companies that accept workers from foreign countries, sponsor their visas, and provide support in obtaining work visas and permits.
All the candidate needs is to pay for a subscription that grants full access to the list of 10 thousand companies and a hundred thousand open positions in 40 countries, including the USA and Canada, the UK, Sweden, Norway, and others.
Each of them is hand-picked and verified by our team. We regularly update our records and remove closed positions. We also help subscribers increase their chances of getting a job by guiding them in how to build a resume and prepare for an interview. We return money in case the visa rejection.

We launched the MVP five months ago, targeting job seekers from Eastern Europe, and met a great demand. We got about 60,000 visits and reached a 10% sign-up to paid subscriber conversion rate.
Our next stage is launching the service in India, where about 18 million people search for jobs abroad yearly, and most speak English. We're planning to launch the English version of the product this year. We also see a lot of potential in Bangladesh, the Philippines, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Mexico, Brazil, and other markets.

Years of the pandemic revealed the acute need for foreign human resources in developed economies. Many industries suffer from a shortage of workers, and companies are happy to accept foreign employees.
In the USA, for example, there were 10 million unfilled jobs in 2021, and only 8.4 million workers were looking for new opportunities. This not going to change for the better. The developed economies will need more and more workers from abroad, and the candidates from developing countries will continue to look for a better life there.

We are a team of 6 professionals with experience in web development, database building, marketing, design and project management.

We are seeking 450,000 euros for 10% of our company. The money will allow us to launch in India and get to other markets faster. Our goal is to become the number one source of information about jobs overseas.

Highly Curated Local Recommendations

triptap is a map for the path less traveled, whether you are in your hometown or traveling somewhere new for the first time. We’re trying to help people discover the best, most unique places in Atlanta. We offer highly curated reviews of restaurants, bars, cafes, boutique hotels, and cool stuff to do. Our focus is on places that are off the beaten path and that highlight the local flavor and culture. Our team individually reviews each pick and recommendations on the app have high quality imagery, useful information, and a detailed personal review. We don’t publish any bad reviews and you won’t find any typical chains on triptap.

In this day in age we are bombarded with so many different choices and options, all claiming to be the best at what they do. Many local recommendation apps present you with every single available option in your vicinity. These services have done a great job indexing everything, but the signal to noise ratio is less than ideal. We also feel that this system is broken as more often then not people will leave a review only if they have had a bad experience. This skews a location’s rating and in our opinion is not a great way to establish quality. To counteract this growing problem we have developed a solution that gives the user a selection of places that meet a high standard and that have actually been visited by a member of our team. This way there can be some credibility and accountability behind each selection and users know what they are getting by visiting a triptap recommendation.

Additionally we have noticed that popularity is a key driver when determining a location’s rating inside a user generated ecosystem. The places that shoot to the top first generally tend to stay there as they are getting the most exposure. This makes it difficult for new and lesser known restaurants to be seen—we have found some amazing places that are ranked in the 100’s on services such as Yelp & Tripdvisor.
