FAQ
Questions,
answered.
Who is Coterie Challenge for?+
Freelancers, founders and creators of every kind: designers, writers, marketers, developers, video and AI creators, social media managers, VAs, analysts and consultants who want consistent clients, a stronger portfolio and real business habits. Beginners with some skill are welcome; the briefs are built to stretch you.
Which lane will I work in?+
You pick the kind of work you do when you sign up, and the app sets your lane: Brand Identity, Flyers, Ad Design, UI/UX, Motion/Video/Photo, Writing & Copy, Content & Social, Marketing & Growth, Web & Software, Ops/Research/Strategy or AI Creation. Your daily project, briefs and post ideas all follow it. You can switch lanes any time from My Journey.
How much time does it take?+
Plan for 2–3 hours a day. Sundays are lighter on outreach and focus on finishing your weekly client project.
How many spots are there?+
Episode 2 is capped at 500 freelancers. When the spots are gone, sign-up closes.
What counts as proof?+
A screenshot, a photo or a link, depending on the task. Proofs are spot-checked; fake proofs lose their points.
What if I miss a day?+
You can catch up any time before Day 28 closes for half points. Streak and Full Stack bonuses only count for on-time days.
What do I win?+
The top 3 overall and the top freelancer in each track get prizes and features. Everyone who completes 100+ tasks gets a certificate and priority access to AmpliQ Meet Coterie Groups.
