Work Seamlessly, Not Stop and Start

Relationship-building is baked into the Superside process. With dedicated teams and collaborative workflows, Superside can work with one team or many teams inside your business—all while maintaining a consistent brand and quality standards. You may also have several requests processed simultaneously.

While Kimp also offers project management, you may only work on a specific number of active requests depending on your subscription level.


Get Everything, Not Either Or

Rather than choosing either video or design, get a plan that's based on your current needs and range of services. Along with a full range of design and video services, Superside lets you scale your subscription up or down as you need. And if you need support with concepts and strategy, we've also got you covered.

Count on Consistency, not Surprises

Superside's subscription pricing is predictable and transparent, so you know and understand exactly what you’re getting and what you’re paying each month. A freelance marketplace may look affordable on the surface—until you’re losing hours tangled in email chains—or you need to make a change very quickly, like yesterday.
