01
Escrow by default
Someone always has to pay first — and carries all the risk if the work never lands.
The platform
The egtos platform: escrow, IndexScore®, and Marcus
One Swiss marketplace for hiring external expertise — payment held in escrow, an objective IndexScore® on every profile, Marcus to scope, run, and safeguard the work, and private talent networks to keep your trusted bench close. Four pillars, one engagement.
What's inside
Four pillars that make every engagement safer.
Each pillar solves one hard part of hiring external experts. Follow any of them through to the detail.
02
IndexScore®
Pitch decks and references are easy to game — there is no shared scale to compare experts on.
03
Marcus
Scope drifts and disagreements escalate when there is no neutral party on the engagement.
04
Private networks
Every engagement starts from scratch — the firms and consultants you trust never carry over.
