We’re hereto do the greatestwork of our lives

And to provide that opportunity for everyone who partners with us.

We don’t build our team with “who’s around.” We build them with “who’s best” for each unique assignment.

Freelance or full-time, from New York to Amsterdam, we bring in the right people for the job. It's not about where your chair is. It's about what you bring to the table, metaphorically speaking (though actual tables are also sometimes involved).

But we also believe in spending time together to build our culture and share meals. That's why we gather for offsites in cities like New Orleans, Montreal and Mexico City to connect and get inspired.

Alto assembles top talent for the challenge at hand, and who you see in the pitch is who you see in the work. We had big ambitions in transforming Upwork's brand and Alto didn't disappoint.

OUR BELIEFS

The most creative work comes from the most diverse minds.

St. John’s University commencement ceremony with confetti and crowd.

That's why we teamed up with St. John’s University, one of the most diverse colleges in the country, to help shape the next generation of creative leaders. They've made us better, faster than we expected.

Creativity can solve some of the world's biggest challenges.

And while we hope to make an impact, we're also proud of what we leave behind. Which, when it comes to the planet, is as little as possible. We've been carbon-neutral since 2021, we travel thoughtfully and we give one percent of our revenue to environmental causes. So far, that's over $400,000 and counting.
