Thirty days.
Five pods.
Your own accounts.
A group of us work the gig platforms together for one month. A scout finds the work, everyone applies from their own accounts, and one instrument reads the whole pod every night — so the group learns in days what a solo freelancer learns in months.
Proposed by Red Pillar for the Common Unity Network · runs on the D.C.C. platform, powered by WorkScout · a Quantum Melanin Media × GitMoney build
Four moves a day.
Thirty days straight.
Nothing here is new software you have to learn. It is three things that already run, wired into one daily loop.
Open your lane board
Work Scout pulls thousands of public postings and routes them into five lanes. Your pod's board shows the gigs and jobs that fit your lane, newest first, with the pay and the bid count when they are published.
Work ScoutApply as yourself
Upwork, Fiverr, Freelancer.com — from your own logged-in account, every time. The sprint never asks for a password and never logs in as anyone. That is the whole legal and security posture, and it is not negotiable.
Your accountsLog five numbers at night
Money in, touches, replies, leads, hours. About thirty seconds. Zeros count — a zero you logged is data, a night you skipped is a blind spot. A reminder email lands only on nights you have not logged.
D.C.C.Read the pod, not the person
The pod page pools everyone's log. Fifty touches make a sample readable: alone that is a week, in a pod of eight it is a day. It shows the pooled funnel, the pace against the pod's target, who is silent, and tomorrow's three turns.

Each pod has one coach, one lane, one 30-day window and one invite code. Every board below is live now — open it and see what your lane looks like before you commit.

See the live board →Read from the platforms' own terms, not from vibes.
All three platforms enforce these, and a pod that breaks one gets every member suspended at once. So they are the sprint's rules too.
The sprint fee is not that.
It is a tool co-op. The pooled membership buys the seats on AI tools you would otherwise buy alone, at team rates. Nobody pays DCC to bid, to apply, or to be seen. The amount is set by the cohort before day one, published up front with the refund terms, and held by the organiser's entity — not in anyone's personal account.
- A seat on the pod's shared AI workspaces (video, image, models) for the 30 days
- A pod with a coach, a lane board and a nightly instrument
- A founding DCC contractor badge when the platform opens
- Not a gig, a client, or a guaranteed dollar — the platforms' own fees (0–20%) still apply to what you win
- Not anyone else's login, on any platform, for any reason
Every pod member is a founding DCC contractor.
DCC opens when its reservoir is full. The sprint is how it fills: thirty days of real work, real numbers and real portfolios from people who have already proven they show up. The platform launches with a roster instead of a waitlist.
Live count on the launch tracker. The pitch is in the deck.
The fine print, in plain words.
Who can see my numbers?
Your pod's coach can read your nightly log while you are in the pod — that is what joining grants, and leaving revokes it instantly. Other members see who is working (touches, replies, leads, nights logged), never what anyone banked. Only the pooled total is shared.
I do not have a Fiverr or Upwork account yet.
Make your own before day one. Each platform allows exactly one account per person, in your own name, and the sprint never creates or shares one for you. Freelancer.com's Basic plan is about $5/month; Upwork and Fiverr are free to open.
Can a pod bid as one agency?
On Upwork, yes — as a real Agency account ($19.99/month), where every member still holds their own linked account and the agency owner becomes the payer of record for the team. Fiverr agencies are invitation-only and need three in-house professionals, so Fiverr runs on individual seller accounts. Neither is required for the sprint; it is a decision each pod makes with its coach.
What does the 30-day target mean?
Each pod sets a pooled dollar target for day 30. The pod page refuses to project a pace for the first five days — one good night times thirty is not a forecast — then shows whether the pod is on pace, behind, and what per-day number closes the gap. It is a direction, never a promise.
Who is building this?
Quantum Melanin Media, with the GitMoney cohort. Two pieces are live today: WorkScout, the engine that finds and scores the work, and D.C.C., the platform your pod runs on. Red Pillar proposed the sprint for the Common Unity Network.
