Auto-Bidder for Freelancer.com with Telegram Confirmation and AI Proposal Generation

The Automatic or Automatic Bidder allows you to create automatic responses to bid requests without needing to know how to reply to requests verbally. If you find yourself spending hours creating and submitting previously created proposals just to be told you were not chosen, you should strongly consider using the Automatic Bidder for your future projects. The Automatic Bot lets you track new job opportunities with ease and respond to them quickly via your smartphone. Not only does this save you time but you will now have much greater odds of being one of the very first applicants to respond to these projects.

What is an Automatic Bidder for Freelancer.com?

Definition and Purpose of The Automatic Bot

The Automatic bidder is an automated bot that monitors all of the current listings for freelance work on Freelancer.com and automatically filters them based on your specified criteria. Once the initial filtering is complete, it will then promptly and effectively make application submissions on your behalf using the parameters you indicated when setting up your account with The Automatic Bidder.

Why is it Important to Automate the Submission Process for Bid Proposals?

Because there are so many freelance job markets operating at present, freelancers can experience a very large influx of applications for a single project in the early stages of its release. Many projects receive hundreds and sometimes thousands of applications during the first day of publication. Most likely, project owners do not have enough time to review all of the applications they receive in their inboxes immediately and only review the first 10 to 15 bids before making decision whether a proposal will be accepted or declined; therefore it is important for you to quickly respond to the applications of the projects you wish to work on. A slow response could cause you to miss an opportunity to have your excellent proposal go unnoticed.

Because manual bidding is time-consuming and can be difficult to keep up with, there are many disadvantages to this method including: having to stay up late and be available to get someone to do manual bidding for you (for example, waking up early and going to bed late), fatigue from all of the repetitive same content throughout the day, and not being able to do as many project matches for a given day. Auto-Bidder addresses all of these problems by automatically submitting bids using AI technology while also allowing you to have more time for other important tasks instead of having to spend hours doing repetitive project reviews.

How Does Telegram Integration Work?

How to Validate Your Applications via Telegram

Telegram allows the automation of applications and gives you complete control. As a result, no applications are submitted without your prior consent; therefore, there is no unnecessary risks associated with your submissions. Each draft prepared by the AI bot will be sent directly to your personal chat on Telegram where you will find a brief summary of the project, your available budget and timeline, and the complete text of the written proposal.

When you receive the draft, you will find two buttons underneath each message; if you click on "Send," the bot will send out the application via the Freelancer API, and you will receive an update regarding your application's status. If you decline to send the application, the application won't count against your bidding credits.

Security and Ease of Use Features

Because the bot uses the Telegram API, there is a graphical interface with a clearly displayed format of the information being sent including links to projects and the important project details (e.g., project name, project category, amount requested, projected completion date). The buttons you press on the bot are processed instantaneously—so within seconds after pressing a button, you will see the results of your actions recorded.

Security is priority one--keys are stored securely and must be encrypted to access the bot which only allows for the bid process to happen through your private chat with the bot. The bot automatically follows the request limits of the Freelancer API so that no account gets blocked from bidding on projects. You will be able to conveniently review and approve bids via Telegram without having to be distracted by your browser. Using the Auto-Bidder allows you to process up to 50 projects in a single day and never spend more than 20 minutes of your total time on these projects. You will receive push notifications as high budget and important projects appear on the market so you are guaranteed to not miss an opportunity.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technology Powers the Proposal Generation

AI Technology Used to Make Proposal Applications

The Auto-Bidder uses AI technology to craft each proposal's cover letter with a human touch and customizes it specifically to you and the project you are submitting to. Outdated cover letters such as "I'm interested in your project" will be ignored by the majority of clients; they will get thrown away (67% of these cover letters). The Auto-Bidder uses the latest in AI language models, such as GPT-4, and provides the application writer with a complete description of the project and the applicant's skills and abilities, resulting in an original text of 150-200 words being generated for each proposal submission. In addition, the Auto-Bidder will analyze your top 5 applications and utilize the AI's learning abilities to recreate your unique writing style, either more formal or informative, and provide it in the new application if the original application is rejected because it has fewer than 50 words or contains content that would be flagged for inquiry.

Benefits of Submitting an AI Generated Proposal Versus Manual

Speed: A manual written proposal would take between 5-10+ minutes to complete, whereas an AI generated proposal will take 5 seconds or less to complete. Therefore, you will be able to submit a more extensive number of applications.

Quality is Consistent: An artificial intelligence tool creates the same quality of output every time it creates a new bid (e.g., 100th bid, 1st bid). Every bid submitted by a human is typically less accurate than the previous ones. A bid created with AI is exactly the same as the previous one, while a winning bid will contain the same elements as the other bids submitted by that individual (the "winning application").

A/B Testing: An A/B Testing application allows you to create multiple versions of your bids and compare the results to determine which ones yield the greatest number of invitations.

Scaling: By using Auto-Bidder, you will be able to apply to a larger number of projects in a shorter amount of time without adding additional time to your workday. For example, you can increase your search filters to include a larger number of categories.

Using Manual Copying and Templates Reduces Conversion Rates: Manual copying of bids and the use of templates typically result in lower conversion rates than using AI-generated personalized responses. AI creates a personalized response for every person based on their individual profile, so the quality of the response is consistent for every individual.

Benefits of Using the Auto-Bidder Service

Time Saved and Increased Chance of Winning a Project

In the past, freelancers submitted 15-20 applications per day, taking several hours to write each application. With Auto-Bidder, an individual may submit between 40-60 applications in approximately 15-20 minutes! This represents a total of approximately 500 hours of saved time per year, at a cost of $50/hour, which equates to a savings of approximately $25,000!

The chance of winning a project increases for three reasons:

1. By submitting an application within five minutes of its posting;
2. By using an AI-created response that is personalized and not a copy of another applicant; and
3. By submitting a greater number of applications while maintaining the same level of quality.

If your current conversion rate is approximately 5%, and you increase your number of applications by threefold, you will increase your total number of invitations by threefold as well.

Success Stories and Customer Testimonials

Real Example of Automated Bid Creation

In March 2024, one web developer began using Auto-Bidder after previously submitting 18 bids each day and receiving 2-3 invitations per week. At the beginning of his journey, he placed 55 bids in just 20 minutes and was invited to win 8-10 times per week while keeping the same conversion rate. His weekly project wins increased from 0.7 to around 2.5, leading to an additional $5,600 for him with a $29 monthly cost and 10 hours on setup.

Case Study 1: Crypto Arbitrageur/Blockchain Consultant

A customer used Auto Bidder with specific parameters combined with an AI created from crypto study cases. In 30 days, he had 12 invitations from 180 bids, closing 3 contracts for $8400, and saved around 25 hours. By personalizing and referring to real-world examples, he gained trust among clients.

Case Study 2: SaaS Content Marketer

A user alternated between aggressive and selective bidding modes via Telegram. The AI reviewed the user's portfolio and analytics, including traffic growth and conversion rates. In turn, he was able to establish a consistent flow of clients that resulted in 2-3 new projects weekly, growing his income by 40%, and reducing his search time from 15 hours to 2 hours.

A former web developer's testimonial: "Before, I was spending 3 hours a day on new projects bidding on 10-12 jobs a day, only getting 1-2 invites each week. Now, it takes me about 20 minutes to get approval on a Telegram, the bot sends out 30-40 proposals, and I get about 5-7 invites. My win rate is still the same as before, but I have three times as many projects."
