What Is Polywork? The Future of Professional Social Media

*Polywork isn't my product, but it's a product that is useful to those building in public.

tl;dr Polywork is great for Indie Hackers because it's all about sharing what we've accomplished and finding others to collaborate with. Think Twitter + LinkedIn, for building in public.

A person who knows a lot about many different subjects: Polymath, as defined by the Cambridge Dictionary.

So what is Polywork? In short, Polywork is a new professional social media platform where you aren’t represented by your job title, and the school you went to, but by what you’ve accomplished and what you do. Your accomplishments, aspirations, and failures verses outdated endorsements (I'm talking to you LinkedIn).

“By helping people share what they do, we can democratize access to opportunities.”

• Peter Johnston, Polywork Founder

Since retiring from the Air Force in 2014, I’ve interviewed NFL players at the Super Bowl, hung out with industry moguls like Gary Vaynerchuk, sold multi-million dollar homes in Hawaii, consulted and advised tech start-ups, and helped non-profit gain public attention and donations.

Up until Polywork, there just hasn’t been a good way to not just display theses accomplishments, but most importantly find and collaborate with the people that need my specific spider web of talents. I believe Polywork is the tool that’ll try amplify my professional signal to the world.
