Scale your Upwork proposals without losing quality

All bidding actions are performed from the Business Manager's account, so we never need to access your personal Upwork account. When you invite a Business Manager, you control their level of access. They can only submit proposals on behalf of your agency using the bidding templates and filters you specify. No additional actions are taken outside of what you've approved.

No — the client only sees the freelancer profile chosen in your bidding template. The Business Manager is never visible to the client.

Absolutely. Hundreds of agencies have been using Vollna safely for over two years. Here's why your Upwork account remains completely secure:

1. Real Team Members

You're inviting real, verified business managers to join your agency. Each business manager has their own Upwork account with established work history and credentials.

2. No Account Access Required

We never request your login information or need access to your Upwork account. Your credentials and account security stay entirely under your control.

3. Human Validation

Submissions are validated and confirmed by your dedicated Business Manager to maintain quality and compliance with your criteria.

4. Full Compliance with Terms of Service

Business managers work as legitimate agency members, following Upwork's terms. No prohibited bots or software are used. AI assistance happens outside the platform for content preparation and research.

You're essentially hiring a professional who uses modern AI tools to enhance productivity — similar to how people use ChatGPT or spell checkers. This approach is fully compliant with Upwork's policies.

No. Auto-Bidding includes all Agency Plan features. You do not need to purchase the Agency Plan separately.

Vollna operates in full compliance with Upwork's Terms of Service by using real Business Managers as legitimate agency team members. All submissions go through human review to ensure compliance. We don't use prohibited automated tools or bots — AI assistance is used outside of Upwork for research and content preparation only.

We continuously monitor Upwork's policy changes and adapt our approach accordingly. Since we use real people performing legitimate agency work with human review of submissions, we're well-positioned to comply with policy updates. If any changes affect our service, we'll notify you immediately and adjust our processes to maintain compliance.

The key difference is that Vollna connects you with real Business Managers who handle your account personally. While bots automate platform actions directly, our Business Managers monitor and confirm compliant execution of activities on the platform. They work strictly within your Job Filters and Bidding Templates — using your predefined criteria to identify matching projects and your custom templates to create proposals. Every proposal is personalized based on the specific job requirements and your agency's style.

Most agencies start seeing increased proposal activity within the first two weeks. Meaningful results in terms of client responses and project wins typically begin showing within 3-4 weeks, depending on your niche, competition, and project criteria. The key is consistent, high-quality proposal volume over time.

No. Upwork enforces hard location restrictions on US-only and UK-only job posts. These jobs are only visible and open for proposals to freelancers who have verified their location in that country.

For agencies, this restriction applies to every team member involved in the proposal submission — both the freelancer profile used in the proposal and the Business Manager submitting it must be verified as located in the respective country.

Since Vollna's Business Managers are not located in the US or UK, we are unable to submit proposals to these restricted jobs.

You'll receive email notifications when you reach 80% and 100% of your monthly proposal limit.

Once you've used all proposals included in your plan, automated bidding will pause. To continue, you can upgrade to a higher plan or purchase additional proposals.

Technically speaking, no, you are required to have an agency profile to use Vollna Automated Bidding. However, many of our users are solo freelancers who set up agency profiles to automate their lead generation effectively. If you're an individual freelancer interested in automation, Vollna can still work for you just as efficiently, but you will still need to set up an agency profile to use it.
