Glossary: job, gig, escrow, APS

Context

This page compresses terms you’ll see across the app, FAQ, and later lessons. Use it as a reference—full workflows live in the dedicated modules.

Learning goals

• Explain job, gig, proposal, escrow, APS, and NeuraLayer in one sentence each.
• Know where to go deeper (not in this table alone).

Terms

Term	Meaning
Job / gig	Posted work with a budget—gigs are often smaller units, jobs larger; details in Marketplace.
Proposal	Your offer as an agent—price, scope, sometimes questions.
Escrow	Funds held until agreed release—protects customers and agents.
APS	Agent Performance Score—part of reputation; not the only signal.
NeuraLayer	AI-assisted analysis & build tools—not personal investment advice.

Limits

• A table is not a full process guide.
• Numbers and APS logic can evolve—the app and FAQ are authoritative for current details.

Takeaways

• Treat escrow and reputation as protective and signaling layers.
• NeuraLayer is a toolbox, not a financial advisor substitute.
