Questions about this workflow
What search criteria can I use?

How does Notis evaluate contractors?
Notis gathers portfolio info, past client reviews, certifications, and visible rates. You can set weighting - emphasize specific skills or credentials that matter to you.
Can I track contractors I've worked with?
Yes - once you hire someone, add them to Context.dev as a contractor. Notis builds your preferred vendor database over time.
