Any thoughts on how to automate Upwork? - MarioAlvarez - 06-08-2026 I've been looking into different ways to streamline our Upwork outreach process and recently came across Convertix. From what I understand, it's an AI-powered platform designed to help agencies automate job discovery, proposal generation, and client outreach on Upwork. It seems to focus on matching relevant jobs, creating customized cover letters based on an agency's portfolio, and tracking proposal performance through analytics. What caught my attention is that it appears to be aimed at agencies rather than individual freelancers. The idea of reducing the amount of time spent manually searching for projects and writing proposals sounds appealing, especially for teams that are sending a large number of applications every week. According to their website, the platform can automatically identify suitable opportunities and submit tailored proposals relatively quickly while providing performance data on views, replies, and conversions. That said, I'm always cautious when it comes to automation tools for platforms like Upwork. Marketing pages can make almost anything sound great, but real-world experiences are usually much more valuable. I'm curious whether anyone here has actually used Convertix as part of their agency's lead generation process. A few things I'd love to hear about: How accurate is the job matching? Are the AI-generated proposals genuinely personalized or do they still feel somewhat generic? Did you notice any improvement in proposal view rates or reply rates after implementing it? How much manual oversight is still required? Was the onboarding process straightforward? Did it help reduce the time your team spends on Upwork prospecting? I'm also interested in hearing how it compares to hiring a dedicated Upwork lead generation specialist or VA. Sometimes automation can save time, but human judgment still plays a big role when it comes to selecting the right opportunities and crafting proposals that stand out. If you've tested Convertix for a few weeks or months, I'd appreciate any honest feedback—positive or negative. I'm trying to determine whether tools like this genuinely improve agency growth on Upwork or if they're mostly useful for scaling an already successful outreach process. Looking forward to hearing your experiences. Thanks! Here is their website:  https://convertix.io/
