I run a lead-generation agency on Upwork, and Vollna quietly became the co-worker I wish I was paying — it filters out low-quality jobs, sends instant alerts, and automates bidding. My reply rate and project quality have both gone up.

I run a VR studio, and Vollna is essential to how we generate leads on Upwork. The filtering and auto-bidding save us hours a week and surface jobs we'd otherwise miss, and the reply tracking shows exactly which setups convert. The team ships fast, too — a feature I requested was live the next day.

We use Vollna to scale our Upwork outreach. The auto-bidding and automation are genuinely useful for increasing volume without manually applying to every job — we started seeing results and even landed a few clients.

Vollna automates my Upwork job search perfectly. It saves me 2+ hours a day by filtering relevant jobs and streamlining applications — more quality projects, less manual work.

Vollna significantly reduces the time spent on unproductive job searches. If you set up the filters correctly, you'll get the best projects in your industry delivered straight into your inbox. We also connected Slack alerts to stay updated on new opportunities every 10 minutes.

Before analysing my Vollna data I was on a 5.3% reply rate. Using the analytics — response time, boost levels, cover-letter performance — I more than doubled it to over 11% (18.2% in January) and cut my cost per lead by 45%. Serious Upwork users are leaving money on the table without it.

Vollna is a fantastic tool that simplifies the Upwork job-search process by providing quick alerts for relevant listings. It saves a lot of time and boosts productivity for freelancers!
Denys G.
Digital marketing agency
I've used Vollna for over 4 months — an excellent tool that covers everything: tracking your metrics, surfacing job postings, and generating proposals. The notifications are superb, and I closed a retainer in my first month thanks to it. Definitely recommend.

A great tool for Upwork freelancers and teams — it filters jobs by keyword across multiple saved searches and integrates with Telegram for instant push notifications.
Oleksii Soloviov

We've used Vollna for over 4 years — it's our main tool for finding clients on Upwork. The analytics show what actually moves reply rate (ours improved a lot), the proposal generator uses our own prompts so it still sounds like us, and Telegram alerts reach us within minutes.

FAQ
Manual bidding with Vollna is the right choice when:
1. You want to read and approve every proposal before it goes out
2. You have a niche where personal touch matters more than volume
3. You are building your Upwork presence and want to learn what works first
4. Your proposal volume is under 100/month and you want full control
Automation makes sense when you have a proven manual workflow and want to scale volume beyond what one person can do.
Upwork's built-in alerts have limited filters and arrive late. ChatGPT has no job context, no template system, and no feedback loop.
Vollna connects filtering, qualification, drafting, and analytics in one flow. The proposal generator has your template and the specific job context built in — it does not need a copy-pasted description.
Most users are set up in under 15 minutes:
1. Create an account and install the Chrome extension (3 minutes)
2. Set up your first job filter with your criteria (5 minutes)
3. Connect Slack or Telegram for notifications (2 minutes)
4. Write your qualification prompt and proposal template (5-10 minutes)
You can refine all of these over time. Analytics start working as soon as you begin sending proposals.
No. The Proposal Generator follows your AI Instructions, so it writes the way you want it to write. It learns your tone of voice, how you handle client requirements, how you format portfolio links, and the kind of opening hooks you prefer.
The more specific your instructions, the more natural and personal the proposal sounds.
Users report saving 1-2 hours per day. The biggest savings come from:
Not scrolling through hundreds of irrelevant jobs (filters)
Not reading full descriptions for bad-fit jobs (qualifier)
Not writing every proposal from scratch (generator)
The manual workflow keeps proposal submission in your hands.
The extension supports filtering, context, and drafting, but it does not send proposals or act on your behalf inside Upwork.
No. The manual bidding workflow is available on the Freelancer and Agency plans. Auto Bidding is a separate product for agencies that want to scale beyond manual capacity.
You can use Vollna's full manual workflow without ever using or paying for automation.
