Forlanso, the integrated management platform designated for contracting and remote employment.

Our Story
          Since the advent of the internet, which represented a revolution in the world of communications, mechanisms for remote work have emerged through freelancer marketplace platforms that focused their business model on the concept of freelancing. Despite their numerous advantages, they have led to some negative outcomes, including narrowing the concept of remote work and confining it to freelancing or the mechanisms in which Remote workers faced various obstacles, including:

  • Commission on their income.
  • Communication restrictions and a lack of integrated digital ID.
  • Intense competition and limited work opportunities.
  • Restriction to transactional means such as gigs and limited budget projects, with a lack of other digital transaction mechanisms.
  • Difficulty in receiving payments due to the absence of suitable financial payout channels for all geographical regions.

          Hence, the idea of Forlanso was born with a group of entrepreneurs seeking to find a different business model that provides solutions and alternatives to the problems and obstacles in the field of remote work. Therefore, Forlanso platform was established to offer a comprehensive concept of remote work that suits various fields of work and meet the needs of companies, entrepreneurs, employees, and freelancers.

          The platform was launched in 2021 at Dubai Silicon Oasis in the United Arab Emirates, witnessing the establishment of the first platform in the Middle East that provide services to remote workers without deducting commissions from their income. This idea forms the solid foundation of Forlanso's business model to achieve financial freedom for remote workers, aiming to provide a different perspective of remote work that is inclusive, not limited to freelancing, but encompassing any type of remote digital contracting suitable for all types of businesses, including companies, employees, and freelancers with various specializations. Additionally, Forlanso aims to provide fundamental solutions to the obstacles and problems faced by remote workers, especially in the Middle East region.

          For this reason, Forlanso platform is the first Arab platform that provides integrated remote work management solutions through its business model, which consists of two sections:
  • The first: designated for companies to deal with remote employees for contracting, payments, and receiving dues.
  • The second: designated for freelancers and entrepreneurs to create their own platforms to manage their remote dealings with clients, offering the following features:
  1. No commission on users' income.
  2. Creating an integrated digital ID for users.
  3. Freedom to communicate with clients without restrictions.
  4. Providing various types of central payment methods.
  5. Diversification of transaction methods either gigs or contracts to suit various needs.
  6. Providing payout channels to receive dues that suit the needs of remote workers worldwide and particularly in the Middle East.

          At Forlanso, we believe in continuous development, which was one of the platform's features that was launched in 2021 by limiting transaction means through gig services. In 2022, the platform transitioned to develop comprehensive digital identity-building tools and expanded payment and payout channels. Then, in 2023, Forlanso increased transactional means to include contracts of various types, whether for remote employees or temporary projects, with the development and increase in payment and payout methods. The platform evolved in 2024, offering additional features for companies and income in terms of receiving payments in digital currencies.
