If you look for remote work from Latin America, you've met Workana, Get on Board and Torre. They don't do the same thing: one is a freelance project marketplace, one a tech job board and one an AI matching system. The right pick depends on what you're after.
The difference in one table
| Platform | Model | What you get | Cost to you |
|---|---|---|---|
| Workana | Freelance marketplace | One-off projects with clients, paid through the platform | Free profile and proposals. A fee on what you earn, down to 5% with long-term clients. Optional paid plans |
| Get on Board | Tech job board (Chile) | Full-time tech jobs, many remote | Free for candidates |
| Torre | AI matching | Recommends openings from your profile ("professional genome") | Free for candidates |
| RemoteJobs.lat | Remote job aggregator | Remote jobs open to LATAM from hundreds of companies, in every field | Free, no sign-up |
Costs come from each platform's help pages as of November 2026. They can change, so check before you bill your first project.
Workana: for projects, not a salary
Workana is the classic way to start freelancing: you publish a profile, send proposals and the client pays you through the platform. Profiles and proposals are free; Workana takes a fee when you're hired, and its help center says that fee can drop to 5% when you work with the same client for a long time. Clients pay a separate 4.5% service fee.
Good for: building experience and a portfolio fast, or working per project.
Not for: a steady income. You compete on price against thousands of proposals, and every project is a new sale.
Get on Board: serious tech jobs
Get on Board is a Chilean job board focused on tech. It's free for candidates: build your profile and apply. Companies pay to post or to see applicants, so the openings tend to come from companies that mean it.
Good for: developers, designers and product people who want a full-time remote or hybrid job.
Not for: roles outside tech (sales, support, marketing, admin), where volume is low.
Torre: let AI do the searching
Torre builds a detailed profile of your experience and uses AI to recommend openings to you, and you to companies. It's free for candidates. It works better the more complete your profile is, and results depend on how well you match what the algorithm is looking for.
Good for: getting opportunities without hunting one by one.
Not for: people who'd rather see every opening and choose.
RemoteJobs.lat: every remote job in one place
RemoteJobs.lat collects remote jobs open to Latin America every day from hundreds of companies and job sites, in every field, not just tech. No sign-up to browse or apply: you apply on the company's own site.
You can also filter by country, like remote jobs for Venezuelans, see which companies hire the most in LATAM and what remote jobs pay.
Good for: landing a remote job paid in dollars after seeing the whole market.
Which one to use?
You don't have to pick one. The combo that works best:
- For a full-time job: RemoteJobs.lat to see the whole market, plus Get on Board if you work in tech.
- For extra income or to get started: Workana while you look for something steady.
- To get found: a complete profile on Torre and LinkedIn.
