MakerHunt.io's answer

MakerHunt stands out with its weekly maker-focused launches, real community voting system, curated discovery experience, and emphasis on helping indie founders and builders get visibility, feedback, and early adopters without getting lost in crowded daily launch feeds.

Split Fee's answer:

Split Fee is the first purpose-built platform for split fee recruitment in the UK. Instead of relying on LinkedIn groups, WhatsApp messages, and manual agreements, agencies upload their candidates and vacancies and the platform automatically matches them across agencies.

Candidate identities are revealed gradually; anonymised at first, then progressively disclosed as both sides accept, so agencies can collaborate without the risk of circumvention.

MakerHunt.io's answer

People choose MakerHunt because it offers focused weekly launches, a community of active makers and early adopters, SEO benefits like backlinks and badges, and a simpler indie-friendly launch experience designed for startups, side projects, and solo founders seeking genuine feedback and visibility.

Split Fee's answer:

Most "split fee networks" are just directories or social groups where agencies post and hope someone responds. Split Fee is an actual matching engine. It scores candidate-vacancy pairs, handles the legal agreements (non-circumvention, self-billing), automates invoicing and fee splits, and manages the entire placement lifecycle from match to payment. Everything that normally requires trust, phone calls, and spreadsheets is handled by the platform.

MakerHunt.io's answer

MakerHunt is primarily built for indie hackers, makers, startup founders, developers, SaaS creators, and product builders who want to launch products, collect feedback, gain visibility, and connect with early users and tech enthusiasts.

Split Fee's answer:

UK recruitment agencies; from boutique firms with a handful of consultants to mid-sized agencies with specialist sector coverage. Any agency that has either strong candidates without the right vacancies, or client vacancies they can't fill from their own candidate pool. Split Fee turns those dormant assets into placements.

MakerHunt.io's answer

MakerHunt was created to help makers and indie founders launch products in a more structured and community-driven way, giving startups a dedicated weekly stage to collect votes, receive feedback, and connect with people who actively try and support new tools and products.

Split Fee's answer:

Abbie, our founder, knew that although split fee arrangements have existed in recruitment for decades, the process has always been manual: find a partner agency, negotiate terms, trust them with your candidate data, chase invoices. Most agencies avoid it because the overhead and risk outweigh the reward. Abbie built Split Fee to remove that friction entirely, with automated matching, progressive identity disclosure, built-in legal agreements, and automated billing, making split placements as straightforward as direct ones.
