We are hiring! Do you know someone who loves helping contractors?

We sincerely apologize for the frustrations experienced during the past two days. The issue today is a reminder of how critical it is to ensure that our system is up and running at all times. We failed you but we are going to make it right. We were already in the process of building out a new server infrastructure that doesn't have resource limitations as we have now. We are also revising the web code, API's, and caching widget and other stats that cause delays in page load. Additionally, we will be working with a 3rd party company to audit the system and provide recommendations. All of this is to say that we are committed to doing what needs to be done to help ensure that this does not happen again. We do appreciate the trust you have put in us and the patience you have had with us. We look forward to working past this.

Sincerely,
Steven Gabbard, Founder
