AI Freelance Rate Advisor

WHAT IT DOES

AI Freelance Rate Advisor helps freelancers set competitive, fair rates for their services. Provide your service type, experience level, location, and project scope, and the agent returns a structured rate recommendation with four sections: Recommended Rate (a suggested hourly or project rate), Market Context (typical rates in your field and location), Value Factors (what justifies your rate), and Negotiation Tips (strategies for discussing rates with clients). The advice is practical and actionable, designed to help you charge what you're worth while staying competitive in your market.

HOW TO USE

Open the agent in BotSurf and paste your BotGentz API key once (the host stores it securely). In the input box, enter your service type, experience level, location, and project scope. Press "Advise Rate" or use Ctrl+Enter (Cmd+Enter) to run. The agent returns a formatted rate recommendation with all four sections. You can also click "Use page selection" to pull selected text from the surrounding page—such as market research, client briefs, or notes—directly into the input field. Regenerate as many times as you like within your monthly limit, refining your details to get more precise recommendations.

WHAT IT SENDS

The agent sends exactly the text you type into the input box—nothing else. It does not send browser history, cookies, page context, analytics, or any hidden metadata. The request fires only when you explicitly click the advise button or press the keyboard shortcut. Usage logs record only that a request occurred and the timestamp, for billing and quota tracking; they never log the content of your rate data or the generated recommendation. Your professional information is not stored, shared, or used for model training. The bridge transmits a form-encoded POST payload, and the response returns directly to your panel.

SUBSCRIPTION

The agent costs $19.99 per month, with a 7-day free trial and no upfront charge. Each subscription includes 100 runs per month—sufficient for exploring rate recommendations for different services, refining based on project scope, or supporting ongoing freelancing decisions. Unused runs do not roll over. You can cancel anytime from your BotSurf account settings. The trial converts to a paid subscription automatically unless you cancel before the seventh day. No long-term contracts, no hidden fees.

THE PANEL

The agent runs as a movable, resizable panel inside BotSurf. Drag the panel by its header to position it anywhere on screen; it snaps to the nearest edge for a tidy workspace. Click the collapse button or press the Escape key to minimize it to a small floating bubble, keeping it accessible without blocking your view. The panel remembers its position and collapsed state across sessions using the host's state API. The header shows only the title text, while the collapsed bubble displays the emoji icon for quick visual identification.

PLEASE NOTE

This agent uses a large language model to generate text based on patterns in its training data. While designed to be helpful, AI can produce inaccurate, outdated, or inappropriate rate recommendations. This tool provides a draft recommendation only and is not a substitute for professional financial advice, market research, or personal judgment. Rates vary significantly by location, industry, and individual skill level. Always conduct your own research and adjust recommendations to your specific circumstances. For specific financial decisions, consult with qualified professionals.
