Stop choosing between independence and security.

Utopia is the community for self-employed professionals who want real benefits, trusted advisors, and a network that actually moves their career forward — all in one place.

Who We Are

1099 Workers was started by the self-employed, for the self-employed. We know firsthand that going independent shouldn’t mean going without — without health coverage that works, without financial tools designed for how you actually earn, without a community that understands your life.

Utopia is what we built when we asked: what if independent professionals had everything that full-time employees take for granted, plus the community and resources to grow even faster?

What Utopia Delivers

Everything is built on the 1099 Workers benefits engine — meaning it’s real, it’s live, and it works today.

Who We Serve

We’ve built a new institution for every dimension of independent work.

The independent workforce is one of the fastest-growing and most underserved segments of the American economy. No institution has been built at scale to support them.

We’re changing that — not just by offering benefits, but by building the infrastructure, the community, the tools, and the advocacy that an entire workforce deserves.

We’ve proven the model. Now we’re building what comes next.
