  description

  Tired of spending 20 connects on a client who never hires? Frustrated by switching between job cards and detail pages just to check basic stats? UpLens solves this by surfacing the client intelligence that matters right where you need it, directly on every Upwork job card.
  
  What UpLens Shows on Every Job Card:
  
  Required Connects 
  Instantly see how many connects each job costs — color-coded so high-cost jobs stand out. No more clicking into jobs just to check the price.
  
  Client Score & Grade (A+ to D) 
  UpLens calculates a quality grade for every client based on hire rate, total spent, hiring history, and account age. See a shield badge (A+, B, C-, D) at a glance and know whether this client is worth your proposal.
  
  Customizable Scoring Weights 
  Not every freelancer values the same things. Adjust the weight of hire rate, total spent, total hires, and account age to match YOUR priorities. Choose from presets (Balanced, Hire-focused, Spend-focused) or fine-tune with sliders.
  
  Client Name Extraction
  UpLens scans freelancer reviews from the client's job history and intelligently extracts the client's real name — displayed right next to the "spent" amount. Know who you're dealing with before you write a single word.
  
  Client City & Location
  See the client's city appended to their country — not just "United States" but "Las Vegas, United States." Helps you gauge time zones and local market context instantly.
  
  Hire Rate & Hiring Stats
  View the client's hire percentage, number of hires, and open jobs inline. Spot serial posters who never hire versus active clients who close quickly.
  
  Live Job Activity
  See when the client last viewed applications, how many freelancers are interviewing, invites sent, and unanswered invites — all displayed near the proposals count. Know whether the client is actively engaged or has gone silent.
  
  Why Freelancers Love UpLens:
  
  Zero extra clicks — everything appears on the job card itself
  Works on Upwork's feed pages, search results, and saved jobs
  Smart caching keeps things fast without repeated page loads
  Pause and resume instantly from the popup — changes take effect immediately, no refresh needed
  Customizable badge colors, sizes, and weights to match your workflow
  Dark mode and light mode supported
  One-click cache clearing when you want fresh data
  How It Works:
  
  UpLens runs quietly in the background. When you browse Upwork jobs, it fetches each job's detail page, extracts the data Upwork hides behind clicks, and injects it cleanly into the job card UI. No API keys. No account linking. No data leaves your browser.
  
  Who Is This For?
  
  Freelancers who are serious about winning on Upwork. If you apply to more than a few jobs a week, UpLens saves you time, connects, and frustration by helping you skip bad clients and focus on the ones that actually hire and pay well.
  
  Permissions & Privacy:
  
  UpLens only runs on upwork.com. It reads job detail pages to extract publicly visible client information. No personal data is collected, stored externally, or shared. All caching is local to your browser.
  
  Stop bidding blind. Install UpLens and see every client clearly.
