As a Contra user, you’ve already built a profile that reflects your talent and a network that knows your value. But even with the right foundation, finding new opportunities still takes effort. Job boards, cold outreach, endless scrolling.
That’s where Indy AI comes in.
What is Indy AI?
Indy is your personal growth coach. It quietly scans your network and surfaces warm opportunities so you can spend less time searching and more time doing meaningful work.

How Indy works
After you set up Indy, finding opportunities is easier than ever.
Indy connects to your LinkedIn and X accounts, scans your extended connections, and quietly surfaces warm, high-fit opportunities backed by real people you already know. Many of them you didn’t even know were hiring.
Indy uses signals from your Contra profile like skills, work history, and the categories you’re active in to only surface relevant opportunities, or ones you can refer to friends.
Viewing opportunities
Go to the opportunities tab to view all of the opportunities Indy has found and apply.
If an opportunity isn't a fit, you can dismiss it or mark it as not interested. All feedback you give helps make Indy better for you. You can also send opportunities to friends if they are a better fit, which helps make your network stronger.
Personalizing Indy for the best results
You can personalize Indy to receive more relevant opportunities. There are two main ways to do this.
1. Keep your Contra profile up to date
Indy looks at your services, earnings, work history, and skills to identify high-fit opportunities. The more complete your profile, the better the match.
For example, if you have graphic design services and projects, Indy will send you graphic design opportunities. But if you're only looking for web design opportunities, you can edit your projects and services to only showcase those skills.
2. Edit your Indy preferences
Indy gives you the option to get granular on what types of opportunities you are interested in. Keep your preferences up to date to receive the most relevant matches.
Tell it what roles, tools, types of jobs, and locations you are open to. Indy will cut through the noise to find opportunities that convert.
