Savio.pro is a global B2B research talent marketplace that aims to transform ‘How Research Talent Gets to Work’ by connecting independent contractors and freelance experts to research buyers seeking flexible talent and transacting projects end to end in a single platform.
A Brief History
Created by researchers for researchers, Savio was originally conceived in 2017 by our partners at GreenBook, the world's largest community of analytics, research, and insight professionals. Following its acquisition and significant investment in software, Savio began transacting in October 2022 with reinvigorated purpose: to be the go-to solution for on-demand research, insight, and analytics talent in an increasingly challenging talent market driven by flexibility.
Savio Today
For Buyers, Savio 1.1 launches initially as a fully managed service whereby a Customer Success Manager will handle talent search and selection for projects on their behalf. Savio 1.2 will evolve to a self-service platform in Q2 2023, when the current managed service on marketplace access will become part of our suite of premium services.
For Vendors, Savio 1.1 launches as the intended self-service platform, allowing sellers create their profile and submit it to Savio for verification and approval. Once approved, vendor profiles are activated and discoverable in searches conducted by Buyers, Project Owners, and Savio's Customer Success Team.
How Savio Works
Savio's software is underpinned by the most comprehensive taxonomy in the research, insights, and analytics industry, featuring a 1000+ point profiling system that facilitates precision matching of vendor's skills, expertise, and market knowledge to the requirements of buyers' project briefs.
For Buyers, Savio's premium services include accreditation badges they can award to vendors based on pre-determined criteria and/or projects they've delivered to a high standard, as well as the ability to create unique virtual private networks to invite those vendors to join exclusively, thereby creating on-demand talent pools of vendors that know your brand standards and ways of working, which make project onboarding faster and easier for everyone.
What's more, Savio handles buyer brief-taking, finding and engaging vendors, presenting shortlists for Buyer review via Savio Reels, and all projects are transacted end-to-end in one platform - including consolidated billing to buyers and payment to vendors for work approved and delivered.
How Does Savio Make Its Money
Buyers pay a contractual mark-up to Savio on the invoices vendors submit against the projects they’ve been sourced for and engaged on through Savio. Vendors’ invoices are approved by buyers or project owners through Savio and are paid by Savio when buyers settle their invoices with Savio. Savio does not charge vendors or take a cut of their invoices.
