[H2] Straight answers.
When do you open to companies?+Once the founding cohort is verified and ready. We're targeting next quarter. We'd rather launch with enough quality studios than send companies into a half-empty marketplace. As a founding studio, you're set up and waiting before that day.What if you don't get enough companies?+Then you've risked nothing. Listing is free and you only ever pay on a closed deal, so there's no cost to being an early, verified studio, just upside if the demand lands.How does payment work?+When a deal closes, payment goes through Talenco. We take 10% of the deal value automatically. There is no self-reporting and no separate commission invoice afterwards.What if a brief doesn't turn into a deal?+You pay nothing. Commission applies only to work you actually win. There are no charges for receiving briefs, being listed, or talking to a company that doesn't sign.Is my business data safe?+Your VAT and registration details are used to verify you and are never shown publicly. Your profile and portfolio only go live after you're verified and the marketplace opens. See our Privacy policy.Who is behind Talenco?+Talenco is operated by Zenico Technologies S.L., a company registered in Spain. Founding applications are reviewed personally. If you'd rather talk before applying, write to hello@talenco.tech.
