One place to connect, sell, book, and get paid
Mindhyv gives independent professionals a verified storefront, bookings and payouts on a platform fee that starts at 5% — and gives the people hiring them honest guides to what good work costs.
How the hyv works
Three moves. Everything else on this site exists to make each one go better.
- 1
Set up a verified storefront
Your services, prices and availability in one place. Identity checks earn the green mark buyers look for.
How verification works - 2
Get booked
Buyers browse by category, compare quotes against our cost guides, and book a slot on your calendar.
What buyers read first - 3
Get paid, keep more
Payouts land with a platform fee of 5–12% depending on your plan — as low as 5%, well under the ~20% typical of freelance marketplaces.
How fees work
Six kinds of work
Independent professionals in these categories sell on Mindhyv. Each has hiring guides and sourced cost ranges.
Know what it should cost before you ask
Hiring guides with sourced price ranges, the questions professionals expect, and the red flags.
Hiring a web designerWhat a web designer actually delivers, what a small-business site costs, and how to avoid paying for a pretty mockup nobody can build.
Hiring a bookkeeperWhat a bookkeeper actually does, what monthly service costs, and how to spot one who will keep your books audit-ready.
Hiring a event plannerWhat an event planner actually handles, what full-service planning costs, and how to hire one who won't disappear on event day.
Mindhyv is not commission-free. It's just lower.
Every sale carries a platform fee that depends on your plan. The lowest tier sits well under the roughly 20% a marketplace like Fiverr charges sellers (as of mid-2026 — check current fees). We publish the number rather than dressing it up.

Run your business better
Practical, opinionated guides for people selling their skills and people hiring them.
How to ask for referrals (scripts included)When and exactly how to ask for referrals so they actually come — the timing, the wording, and how to make it effortless for the client to say yes.
Set boundaries with clients (and keep them)How to set boundaries on hours, communication, and scope that clients respect — because you set them early, in writing, and enforce them calmly.
Budget an event (line by line)A line-item event budget that accounts for the vendors, the per-head costs, and the 10% nobody plans for — so the final tally matches the number you set.
