PROFESSIONAL NETWORK & EXPERT MARKETPLACE

Expert In The City

A free professional network where consultants, experts, founders, and businesses find each other, talk directly, and grow real work.

Expert In The City is a professional networking platform for consultants, independent experts, founders, and businesses. People search by skill, industry, or city, open a profile, join communities, post on the feed, hire through the jobs board, and use Expert AI to shortlist the right person without a middleman.

Engagement Overview

The product is built around two doors into the same network: clients looking for expertise, and experts who want visibility. Listing is free. There are no platform commissions on the introduction itself. Paid plans add an Expert AI workspace for search, opportunities, hiring shortlists, and team building. The company operates from RAKEZ Free Zone in the United Arab Emirates under RIVLI GLOBAL FZ LLC, with a network that is especially active across the UAE and India and open to experts worldwide.

Goal: Make specialized human judgment easy to find, message, and hire, locally or globally, without listing fees or forced intermediaries.

Approach: The experience is organized as a set of connected surfaces: discovery on the home page, category browsing, expert profiles, a social feed, topic communities, a jobs board, expert onboarding, and a plans page that unlocks Expert AI. Expert AI sits on top of those surfaces so search, opportunities, and hiring stay in one conversation.

Networking that is direct, trusted, and usable on both sides

Professionals do not only need a directory. They need a profile people can trust, a way to start a conversation, communities that stay relevant, and a path from “I need help” to a real engagement. Expert In The City treats discovery, conversation, jobs, and AI shortlisting as one product, with a free core and optional paid AI tools.

Expected Business Impact

People can find a relevant expert by skill, industry, or city instead of working through long email chains.

Experts keep their own rates and availability, and they choose who they work with.

Communities such as Abu Dhabi professionals, real estate, angel investors, and artificial intelligence give the network a place to gather by topic.

Expert Pro and Business Pro turn the same workspace into opportunity discovery, hiring shortlists, and team building.
