Why engineers work with Cobalt

No hardware to buy, no provisioning to wrangle. Just take on Apple platform work and get paid for it.

Get paid by bank transfer

Set your own rate and keep the task price less a 15% platform fee. Withdraw €50 to €10,000 at a time by bank transfer.

No Mac of your own needed

A task is done on the client's Cobalt Mac — a Mac mini M4 with Xcode — reached over AnyDesk, with access arranged in the task thread.

Your schedule

Accept the tasks that fit your week. Mark yourself available when you have capacity, and offline when you don't.

Verified profile

Pass our review once and wear a verified badge. Clients see your skills, your rate and the response time you state, up front.
