📣Do not finish a project without your recommendations
Build the reputation you own,
project after project.
A portfolio of verified client testimonials that grows with every project. Your reputation, written by the people who have worked with you. Shared with one link. It is free.
Create my portfolioLeaving without your client testimonials is walking away from treasure.
You were paid for the project. Good. But without the recommendation that goes with it, you start from scratch with the next prospect: as though that project had never happened.
How it works
STEP 1 · one link to send
You ask
A personal link sent to your client by email or WhatsApp. They sign in within 30 seconds, with a code sent by email.
STEP 2 · five minutes
They write
The AI assistant asks your client the right questions, and they answer in their own words. What comes out reads like something they wrote themselves.
STEP 3 · over time
You build on it
Each recommendation joins your portfolio, which you can share with one link or download as a PDF.
What it changes
One place for your client testimonials, under your own name, that follows you from project to project.
- Word of mouth, but between strangers.Your testimonials travel to prospects who know nobody in your network, and who would never have heard of you otherwise.
- Recommendations of real length, written by real clients. Not three polite lines to close the project off.
- One link to share.Your portfolio is open to read, with no sign-up and no subscription.
- Every testimonial comes from a verified email address.Harder to fabricate than an anonymous quote on your own website.
- Something that keeps growing.Each project adds to the last. Your profile gains weight, and you become the obvious choice.
- Free. For you, and for your clients. No adverts, no hidden paid plan.
“At first I had one recommendation. Then three. Then twelve. Today my profile really carries weight: prospects no longer have to take my word for it, they read what my previous clients wrote. It has become my best argument.”

Common questions
Will my clients agree to spend five minutes on this?+
You would be surprised. Most of them are glad the work is made easy: they sign in within 30 seconds with a code sent by email, there is no blank page, just four or five guided questions and it is done. And above all, they owe you. You did good work.
My clients are not in tech. Will this be too much for them?+
No, the interface is deliberately plain. We have tested it with tradespeople, solicitors and doctors. If you can open an email, you can write a recommendation on TYS.
What if I am not happy with a recommendation?+
You choose what is public on your profile. A recommendation you find lukewarm can be unpublished at any time. You stay in control.
Is it really free?+
Yes. Take Your Skills is free for everyone, with no adverts and no hidden paid plan. The project is funded another way.
How do I share my portfolio?+
A short URL for your email signature, LinkedIn or your own website. You can also export your portfolio as a PDF, to attach alongside a quote.
