Abstract: The main purpose of this platform is that the service providers get the whole credits without any involvement of the commission agents. Various services like plumbing, carpentry, pest control, electrical, tuition, are listed as professional services in this platform. Unlike the other available applications, it also lists the available people who are ready to serve some basic non-professional services like acting driver, temporary child caretaker, pickup and delivery of emergency items. Also a corporate person during his/her duty can make use of this application to earn additional income by serving some non-professional services. The customer can make an account and search for the necessary service nearby. This platform helps the customers to fetch the contact details of the service providers nearby. From enumerated list the patrons can choose any provider based on either the reviews or the shortest distance. The patrons and providers can make flexible appointments. Every successful appointment is noted and a log is maintained for security reasons, so that the providers can be tracked when any criminal activity is detected during the appointment.
