What are the best practices for starting a freelancing platform, which allows startups to hire freelancers against equity?

I am developing a freelance platform in which startups can hire freelancers for their work against equity. What do you think about its future? Will it bring any change?

What's the business model for the freelancing platform?

Have you looked at http://equitydirectory.com/? They are a startup concierge matchmaking subscription service for founders looking to share equity or cash/equity splits with contributors.

Are you familiar with http://SlicingPie.com? I think a dynamic equity split system like Mike Moyer's "Grunt Fund" is a perfect match for a platform approach to startup collaboration.
