Taskrabbit connects clients with skilled individuals, called Taskers, who can help with various household and personal tasks. Clients can hire Taskers for chores like cleaning, furniture assembly, home repairs, and running errands. The platform operates as a marketplace where clients post tasks, and Taskers bid on them, offering competitive rates. Taskrabbit charges a service fee on each transaction, which is a percentage of the task's total cost, allowing the company to earn revenue with each completed task. Accessible through a website and mobile app, Taskrabbit emphasizes same-day service for clients needing immediate help. The company also has a "Happiness Pledge" to ensure customer satisfaction and address any issues quickly. Taskrabbit aims to provide a reliable and efficient way for people to get things done, focusing on convenience and quality service in the home services market.
