Bounties is a marketplace on Replit where top creators can connect with developers to complete software development tasks, often with the goal of building internal tools or solutions for companies in growth mode. Companies like Deel need talented web developers who can build and host projects quickly and within budget, and Bounties provides an opportunity for them to find skilled developers through a platform that allows vetted "Bounty Hunters" to work on short-term projects. In this case, Owen from Deel's content team needed a developer to create an internal tool using the Algolia API, and they found Ray, a prolific Replit community member, who successfully completed the project using Replit's tools and services.
