Customer Mobile App
Homeowners post tasks in 60 seconds with photos, compare trade quotes, review licenses, chat live, and fund milestones via Apple Pay or credit card.
Business / Tradie App
Tradespeople get instant push alerts for jobs in their service radius. Review scope, buy lead credits, send custom quotes, and request milestone payouts upon completion.
Responsive Web Portal
Search-engine optimized landing pages for thousands of localized services (e.g. 'Emergency Plumber in Sydney'). Allows desktop customers to post and manage tasks.
Operator Admin Headquarters
Super-admin command center to vet tradie licenses, manage escrow dispute mediations, configure category commission tiers, and monitor platform transaction GMV.
From posted task to paid job in four steps.
A friction-free transaction journey engineered to maximize booking conversion rates and eliminate payment disputes.
Customer posts a task
Homeowners describe what needs fixing, upload photos, set their desired budget, and choose emergency or scheduled timing.
Local pros get an alert
Instant push notifications reach verified professionals licensed in that trade category and operating within that specific postal code.
Quotes in real time
Up to 3 to 5 pros send tailored itemized quotes, share license numbers, and answer questions via real-time encrypted in-app chat.
Pay safely, release on finish
The client accepts a quote and funds the job into Stripe milestone escrow. Money is disbursed to the pro only when the customer approves the finished job.
Real screens from a live deployment.
Currently running live in the Australian market powering tens of thousands of trades and homeowner transactions.
Real-time job alerts & instant quote bidding
Contractors open incoming local leads, see customer photos and job distance, purchase credits, and respond with itemized cost estimates and availability slots.
- Push notifications for jobs within custom radius
- Lead credit wallet with automatic top-ups
- Direct client calling and encrypted in-app messaging
Everything a services marketplace needs to grow.
Designed with the virality, monetization mechanics, and trust infrastructure needed to achieve liquidity in any metropolitan market.
Built for both sides of the deal
Dedicated interfaces tailored for how homeowners evaluate contractors and how busy tradies quote from work vans between jobs.
Smart local matching
Instantly pairs customer tasks with verified businesses operating within that exact suburb radius to guarantee rapid response times.
Quote & chat in real time
Send detailed milestone quotes, share site photos, voice notes, and adjust scopes through websocket-driven chat without sharing phone numbers.
Dynamic pay-per-lead pricing
Earn revenue immediately when tradies unlock customer contacts. Small tasks cost $5 in credits, while full home renovations yield $60+ per lead.
Verified before they quote
Mandatory check of trade licences, public liability insurance, and business registration numbers before any contractor can unlock jobs.
Stripe Milestone Escrow
Clients fund the job into secure escrow upon quote acceptance. Funds release automatically when the client confirms job completion.
Push, SMS & Email alerts
Multi-channel notification triggers ensure contractors never miss high-value local opportunities even when the app is in the background.
White-label deployment with full Flutter & Laravel source code
Published under your corporate identity on Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Full access to the production Flutter apps, Next.js web portal, and Laravel API backend with zero platform royalties.
Customers pay with confidence. Businesses know they’ll be paid.
Three complementary revenue streams keep your platform profitable from day one while eliminating contractor non-payment fears.
Pay-Per-Lead Credits
Contractors purchase credit bundles ($50 to $500) to unlock client phone numbers and submit bids. Generates immediate upfront revenue regardless of job outcome.
Transaction Escrow Commission
Retain 8% to 15% marketplace take-rate when jobs are paid through the built-in Stripe Connect escrow engine upon customer approval.
Featured Pro Subscriptions
Offer top contractors $49 to $199/month pro badges, prime ranking in directory search results, and 15% discount on lead unlocking credits.
Milestone Dispute Protection
For multi-stage jobs (e.g. bathroom renovation), break payments into deposit, rough-in, and completion milestones with admin dispute arbitration.
