Innovation Isn’t Always About Technology—It’s About People

When we think of innovation, we often picture cutting-edge technology, automation, and artificial intelligence. But at Limitless, we believe that true innovation goes beyond the tools we create. It’s about the people—the experts who bring empathy, knowledge, and real-world experiences to the customer interactions that matter most. This was really brought home to me at our Internal QBR this week where I watched a video highlighting the feedback we get from our Experts.

Our GigCX Experts are the heart of what we do. Each of them brings something unique to the table, not just in terms of expertise but in the way they connect with customers on a personal level. These experts are real people, with diverse backgrounds, life experiences, and passions, all working remotely to make a difference for the customers they support.

Empathy Drives Innovation

One of the greatest things about GigCX is that it’s not just about resolving issues—it’s about creating a human connection. Our experts, who are customers themselves, can relate to the challenges others face, and they bring a level of empathy and understanding that can’t be replicated by machines or scripts.

As Arnaud, who works as a Unilever product expert, said:

“I love helping other people, and as a customer myself, I know how satisfying it is to get personalized responses. And when I get positive feedback.”

For Arnaud, helping people isn’t just about solving a problem—it’s about personalized support that leaves a lasting impression. When customers feel understood and supported, they’re more likely to build long-term relationships with the brand. This empathy-driven approach is what sets GigCX apart and proves that people-first innovation can be just as powerful as any technological breakthrough.

Building Connections, One Interaction at a Time

Our experts are also passionate about their work because it allows them to connect with customers in meaningful ways. Brennan, who works as a PlayStation Expert, shared how rewarding it feels to help others who are facing the same issues he has encountered:

“It’s really a nice reward, and I love feeling that I was helpful to others. I love being able to help other players with their problems… I’ve experienced [the same issues], and being able to help them through the same issues feels great.”

Brennan’s experience highlights how shared knowledge and empathy can create powerful connections between experts and customers. These are the interactions that make people feel valued, supported, and empowered, and they’re a key part of what makes GigCX so effective.

Flexibility and Freedom: Empowering Experts

But it’s not just the customers who benefit from GigCX. For many of our experts, flexibility is one of the biggest perks. Being able to choose when and where they work allows them to fit their work around their lives, rather than the other way around.

For Ali, who works as a National Express Expert, this flexibility has made a huge difference:

“What’s really great about Limitless is that I choose when I want to work. Having a disability as well as working full time can have a real drain on my energy levels, but I can do Limitless when I’m lying in bed and not feeling my best. Helping these customers helps me to earn some extra pennies… it helps me go for days out with my grandchildren.”

This empowerment is what makes GigCX so much more than a job. It provides people with the opportunity to work in a way that suits their personal circumstances, whether they’re balancing other commitments, like Ali, or simply seeking a better work-life balance.

Global Perspectives, Local Impact

Our experts come from all over the world, each bringing their own unique perspectives and experiences. This diversity isn’t just valuable—it’s essential to creating meaningful connections with the customers they support.

For Vlad, who works as a Too Good To Go Expert, the money he earns through GigCX allows him to enjoy and share food experiences with friends:

“The money that I save actually goes to being able to indulge and share food experiences with other friends… For me, food is culture, and food is a social experience to share.”

This insight into how culture and connection shape his life is a reminder that innovation isn’t always about what’s new or shiny—it’s about creating opportunities for people to live fuller, richer lives through their work. GigCX provides the flexibility and financial freedom that allows people like Vlad to prioritize the things that matter most to them.

Innovation Through People, Not Just Technology

At Limitless, we’ve built our GigCX model on the belief that people are the key to innovation. Technology can solve problems, but it’s the human element—empathy, understanding, and shared experiences—that drives real transformation. Our experts embody this every day, whether they’re helping someone navigate a complex issue or simply offering support with a smile (even if it’s virtual).

When we think about the future of customer experience, we know that it will be shaped not just by advances in technology but by the way we empower people to connect with one another. Innovation isn’t always about creating something new—it’s about reimagining how we can use the resources we already have to build better relationships and create lasting impact.
