Frequently asked questions

Answers for freelancers and clients – from registration through matching to invoicing.

General

What is KIEDIS?

KIEDIS is an AI-based platform for business freelancers, interim managers and specialist experts. Companies find suitable candidates for projects, transformation programmes or temporary staffing needs quickly and efficiently – without conventional job postings or drawn-out search processes.

Registration

Is registering with KIEDIS free?

Yes. Registering and creating your freelancer profile are entirely free.

How do I register with KIEDIS?

You create an account, add your contact details and upload your CV. The AI structures what you provide and helps you complete your profile.

What documents do I need to register?

To get started you mainly need an up-to-date CV. Details on skills, project experience, availability and rates can be added to your profile afterwards.

How long does registration take?

Basic registration takes only a few minutes. The more complete your details, the more precisely the matching can work.

Can I edit my profile later?

Yes. You can update your profile, availability, experience and rates at any time.

Profile & visibility

What do I need to do actively as a freelancer?

Keep your profile complete and current. Matching project enquiries are then proposed to you automatically.

Which profile details improve my chances of being proposed for matching mandates?

A current CV, concrete project experience, clearly described skills, realistic rates and well-maintained availability all improve matching quality.

How do I increase the visibility of my KIEDIS profile?

Complete all relevant profile fields and use the AI check to present your skills and experience precisely and comprehensibly.

Who can see my profile?

Your profile is not public. It is only proposed to matching clients as part of a specific match.

Can I deactivate my profile temporarily?

Yes. If you are temporarily unavailable, you can adjust your availability and pause your profile for new enquiries.

Matching & projects

How exactly does matching for mandates work?

The AI compares project requirements against your skills, experience, availability and conditions. Where the overlap is high, you receive a matching enquiry.

How often are profiles actually considered?

That depends on your skills, your availability and current project demand. There is no artificial limit or fixed quota.

Can I apply for projects?

KIEDIS is not a conventional job board. Matching projects find you through the AI matching; applying to public postings is not required.

How am I informed about matching projects?

You receive a notification as soon as a matching project enquiry exists for your profile.

Can I decline project enquiries?

Yes. You decide which enquiries to pursue or decline.

Which criteria does the AI consider when matching?

Among others: skills, project experience, sector, role, availability, working model, location and rates.

Working together

How is the collaboration between clients and freelancers organised?

KIEDIS accompanies the process from matching through interviews and contract to invoicing, centrally through the platform.

Am I obliged to accept a project?

No. Every enquiry is non-binding and you decide yourself whether the project suits you.

Can I take on several projects at once?

Yes, provided your capacity and the respective project terms allow it. Your availability should be kept up to date in your profile.

Can I change my availability at any time?

Yes. You can update your availability in your profile at any time.

Is there a point of contact during the project?

Yes. KIEDIS accompanies the collaboration and helps with questions about the platform, handling and administration.

What happens after a successful interview?

Once you agree, the contract documents are prepared and the project start is organised centrally through KIEDIS.

Can I delete my profile?

Yes. You can request deletion of your profile; statutory retention obligations for completed transactions remain unaffected.

Contract model

Is there any exclusivity or other contractual tie for registered experts?

No. Registration is non-binding and does not create any exclusivity.

What is the relationship between KIEDIS and taskforce?

KIEDIS is a wholly owned subsidiary of taskforce AG and combines its market knowledge with a technology-led platform.

How does the contract ensure the work is structured as an independent consulting service?

The contract reflects a clearly defined, independent project mandate. The specific arrangement is documented in a legally sound way before the project starts.

Can I take on other projects outside KIEDIS?

Yes. Outside a specific KIEDIS project there are no exclusive ties.

Fees & invoicing

Are there any costs for freelancers using KIEDIS?

No. For freelancers, using KIEDIS is free of charge and commission.

How does invoicing work between the client, KIEDIS and me?

Your work is documented and invoiced through KIEDIS. KIEDIS coordinates invoicing towards the client and your payment.

Who invoices whom, and how is the interim manager paid?

You invoice your agreed services to KIEDIS. KIEDIS handles invoicing with the client and pays you according to the agreed payment terms.

Which administrative tasks stay with the expert?

You maintain your timesheets and the details required for your invoicing in particular. KIEDIS handles the remaining contract and payment processing.

Which fees, costs or other deductions can arise from a placement?

No placement fees or commission apply to freelancers. Your agreed rates remain your rates.

When do I receive my payment?

Payment is made according to the terms agreed in the project contract, once services have been properly invoiced.

Do I set my own daily rate?

Yes. You set your own rates and can keep them current in your profile.

Data protection

Is my data safe?

Yes. KIEDIS processes personal data in line with the GDPR and solely for the intended platform and matching purposes.
