Getmany Founder Describes AI Tool for Upwork Client Acquisition
Kyrylo Kozak launched Getmany, an AI platform that automates proposal writing and client outreach for agencies using Upwork. The company was started in Ukraine and integrates with existing business tools.
Usa TodayKyrylo Kozak founded Getmany, an AI-powered platform that scans Upwork job listings, evaluates project fit, generates proposals, and manages follow-up messages for agencies. The system connects with Slack, HubSpot, Notion, and Pipedrive to consolidate outreach tasks into one workflow.
Kozak previously operated agencies on Upwork for nearly a decade and reported generating more than US$5 million in agency revenue.
Getmany states that agencies using the tool can automate up to 85 percent of their Upwork bidding and lead qualification steps. Company-published case studies report higher reply rates and lower manual hours, though results vary by agency size. Kozak said the platform focuses on targeted proposals rather than high-volume generic messages and operates within Upwork's compliance rules.
Upwork data shows millions of freelancers competing for contracts in software, design, marketing, and consulting. A 2025 World Economic Forum report projected that AI and automation will affect nearly 86 percent of businesses globally by 2030. Kozak noted that the company was started in Ukraine during a period of instability, which he said shaped its emphasis on efficiency and reduced overhead.
