Operating model

Negotiation, travel deals, and shared-cost flows.

These workflows should stay structured. The system captures facts, shows evidence, preserves user consent, and creates clear state transitions instead of free-form chaos.

Getting help

  1. Describe the errand in your own words. Errand auto-detects the category (handyman, minor plumbing, and so on) so you never have to pick from a list.
  2. A deterministic safety gate runs first, before any AI call. Gas lines, electrical panels, structural work, roof work, and licensed-only jobs are routed straight to verified providers -- never a DIY guide.
  3. For safe tasks, an AI-generated guided fix walks you through it step by step.
  4. Still stuck? One tap posts the job to your nearby neighbors first -- ranked by distance and trust tier, not locked to people who happened to tag themselves with the exact category. If nobody responds, the search radius widens automatically.
  5. Providers send structured offers: price, duration, and schedule. Accept, decline, or counter.
  6. Once scheduled, track the job through to completion, then both sides leave a blind rating that becomes visible together.

Deal negotiation

  1. Customer posts a scoped request with photos, location range, urgency, and budget preference.
  2. Errand safety gate blocks risky DIY and creates a provider-ready job brief.
  3. Providers submit structured offers: price, scope, materials, duration, availability, warranty, exclusions.
  4. Customer can accept, decline, or counter. Each counter creates an auditable offer version.
  5. Once accepted, exact address and scheduling unlock. Payment hold can be created if payments are enabled.
  6. After completion, both sides rate blindly, then reviews become visible.

Travel deals

  1. User enters budget, origin, destination flexibility, travel dates, people, days, preferences, and constraints.
  2. Errand compares packages or provider-supplied options by total cost, convenience, refundability, safety, and fit.
  3. AI summarizes trade-offs but does not invent prices. Each deal should carry source/provider evidence.
  4. User can save a deal, ask for a cheaper option, request human travel-provider follow-up, or convert it into a booking workflow.
  5. Admin can enable countries, currencies, travel providers, and deal sources separately.

Share the cost

  1. User posts a platonic cost-sharing plan: destination, dates, split items, approximate budget, and boundaries.
  2. Errand matches compatible users by destination, dates, budget, verification status, and safety preferences.
  3. Private details stay hidden until both users opt in. No dating, paid companionship, or adult-service positioning.
  4. Users can propose shared room, car, local tour, or group package splits, with clear per-person estimated cost.
  5. Report/block controls and identity verification become mandatory before deeper coordination.
