Company profile
researched Aug 2026Wishket (위시켓) operates a South Korean online platform for IT projects, connecting client companies with IT freelancers and development agencies. Clients post a single project listing and receive proposals and comparative quotes from candidate partners, then select among them; the site offers both free matching and a quotation consultation request path. Project categories span IT services, business/internal systems, websites, AI, commerce, cloud, consulting and maintenance.
The platform includes an AI-based similar-case search feature that returns estimated quotes and comparable past projects from a natural-language description of what a client wants to build (for example, automating customer inquiries with an AI chatbot, building an intermediary/marketplace platform with integrated booking and payment, or an AI recommendation system). Wishket also publishes portfolios of work completed through the platform, including a "Portfolio Plus" designation for listings intended to evidence expertise and results. Portfolios cover web, Android and iOS deliverables across e-commerce and shopping malls, education/LMS platforms, healthcare and mental-health apps, matching and marketplace apps, parking and ESG systems, and generative-AI products, built with stacks such as React, TypeScript, FastAPI, Django, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Swift, Kotlin, React Native, AWS and Figma.
For freelance partners, the platform supports registering a desired start date for on-site/fixed-term projects so that dedicated managers can recommend matching engagements.
