ConnectSaver

Know if an Upwork job is real before you spend Connects.

On-page checks for review padding, throwaway accounts, and lowball spam — so you apply to clients worth your time.

How to use

  1. Install ConnectSaver.
  2. Open an Upwork job from its job page URL (the full job details page — not search results or your proposals list).
  3. Click “Is this real?” in the panel.
  4. If history is collapsed, expand “Client’s recent history” and “Jobs in progress,” then check again.

Likely fake

Same-month micro contracts, review farms, brand-new zero-spend shells.

Lowball / spammy

Mass posters and thin-track “agency” asks that burn Connects for little return.

Likely real

Irregular billed history, varied pay, and track records that look like real work.
