Frequently Asked Questions
General
What is mindPick?
mindPick is an async video Q&A platform that connects people who have questions with experts who have answers. Experts record video responses to specific questions and get paid for their time.
How is this different from a consulting call?
mindPick is asynchronous — no scheduling needed. You ask a specific question, the expert answers with a focused video when they're ready. It's faster, more focused, and typically more affordable than traditional consulting.
