When you sign up for Studiomate, you’ll be asked to choose an account type: Freelancer or Company. Your account type determines if your profile displays your first & last name or your company name. Choosing the right account type ensures Studiomate shows the most relevant features for how you work.
A freelancer account is designed for freelance and independent creative professionals.
If you’re working as a solo creative, contractor, or independent specialist, a freelancer account allows you to:
Create a personal professional profile
Showcase your portfolio and project-based work
Highlight your categories, skills, and tools
Add past and current clients
Appear in selected markets and categories
Apply to contract, remote, part-time, and full-time job opportunities
A Company account is designed for studios, agencies, production companies, and organizations.
If you’re working as part of a team, under a company name, or representing an organization rather than yourself as an individual, a Company account allows you to:
Create and manage a company profile
Showcase your company’s work, services, and portfolio
Represent your team under a single brand or organization
Share company-level identity, background, and social links
Appear on Studiomate as a business rather than an individual freelancer
Company accounts are ideal for teams and organizations that want to present a unified brand presence and showcase their work on Studiomate.

To switch between an Individual (Freelancer) and Company account, go to your Dashboard and navigate to Profile → Overview → Identity. From there, you can toggle your account type on or off by selecting whether you want to appear as a Freelancer or Company.
Changes take effect immediately and update how your profile is displayed across Studiomate.
If you primarily offer creative services as an individual, choose a Freelancer account.

Selecting the correct account type helps ensure your profile is shown to the right audience and that you get the most out of Studiomate.
