Why HandIt exists

Six things that make this not just another gig app.

We built HandIt for the people we'd actually want as neighbors. Not for ad targeting, not for algorithmic feeds, not for the next round.

  • Helpers keep more, not less

    Free plans take a small 5% fee. Plus drops it to 3%. Pro takes nothing — 0% commission, ever. No 20% platform-style cut at any tier. The people doing the work take home the value.

  • Neighborhood, not nation

    Tasks surface from people walking distance away. No spammy listings from across the country. Your block is the feed.

  • Credits become real money

    Cash out anytime through Stripe — directly to your bank. Credits aren't a closed loop; they're income you can spend anywhere.

  • Escrow on every task

    When you post, credits leave your wallet and sit in escrow until the work is confirmed. Nobody disappears with your money. Nobody works for free.

  • No algorithmic feed

    We don't reorder tasks to maximize your screen time. You see what's near you, what's recent, and what matches your skills. That's it.

  • You own your data

    Export everything anytime, delete your account anytime. We don't sell anything to anyone. Your tasks, reviews and conversations belong to you.

Whatever you need.Someone nearby can probably do it.

From a leaky faucet to a Python tutor. From a borrowed drill to a hand carrying boxes. The list keeps growing because your neighbors keep showing up.

The borrow side

Why buy what you'll use once?

Every drill, ladder, and pressure washer in your building is sitting unused 95% of the time. Borrow the one your neighbor already owns. Lend yours when it's idle and earn credits doing nothing.

Trust

Built so you don't have to take anyone on faith.

Three things every interaction relies on — by design, not by promise.

  • Identity, verified

    Phone, email, and ID checks before anyone earns or asks. Real people, traceable accounts. No anonymous flakes.

  • Credits in escrow

    When you post a task, the credits leave your wallet and sit in escrow until the job is confirmed done. Nobody gets paid for not showing up.

  • Reviews that matter

    Both sides rate every interaction. Helpers with low ratings stop getting work. Posters who flake stop getting helpers. The system self-cleans.

Why we built this

The internet promised to connect us.

Then it sold us furniture from another country and a video about a stranger fixing their sink.

Your actual neighbor —

the one with the drill, the time, the kid who tutors Python —

you've never met them.

HandIt is for that.
