Rent-A-Coder is the web-based marketplace created and designed to connect companies who are in need of skillful and fast-paced computer programmers with an international network of freelance programmers. Ian Ippolito is the creator of Rent-A-Coder and the CEO at Exhedra Solutions, Inc. He claims that the marvelous idea dawned on him after turning down multiple coding projects because of lack of time. This idea would eventually germinate into a top-notch website in the form of Rent-A-Coder.com and it grew quickly in the following years.

Rent-A-Coder could be considered the eBay of the fast-paced coding world, where literally thousands of businesses place projects for auction and over 100,000 experienced coders come to bid on them. Rent-A-Coder also seeks to connect businesses with talented graphic artists, writers, and language translators. The success of Rent-A-Coder, combined with the innovative effects of the Internet result in an international market where businesses in Las Vegas, Nevada are hiring programmers in Nigeria and Russia. Many think is the hypercompetitive future of the industry of programming, and Rent-A-Coder is on the cutting edge. The companies pay the lowest price possible for a project because of competing programmers and the programmers naturally benefit from having a centralized location where they can search through various projects.
