Overview
Company Historically Provides H1B Sponsorship
Thumbtack is an online marketplace that connects consumers with local professionals for home, event, and personal services across the United States. Professionals list their services on the platform, while consumers search, compare, read reviews, and book directly, with price estimates based on bids from pros. Pros pay for leads when a customer contacts them, regardless of whether the job is awarded. The platform aims to simplify finding and hiring local service providers by offering matches, reviews, transparent pricing, and easy booking in one place.
