Connective Chore-Completion Apps

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The TaskRabbit App Lets You Hire People to Get Chores Done

— August 23, 2016 — Tech
TaskRabbit is an innovative new smartphone app that is designed to make it easier for you to get chores done by hiring someone who is willing to do them for you in exchange for a fee. Whether you need to get some groceries done or clean your home, TaskRabbit is a great option as it allows you to hire a 'tasker' in just a matter of a few clicks.

The app ensures the qualifications of the people who work for you to help you get chores done by virtue of a deliberate and intricate screening process. Once you sign up to the app, you can then easily communicate with your hired hand from within the app itself, before setting up the chore in question and paying from within the app again.

By making it easy for people to get chores done by a vetted and guaranteed hire, TaskRabbit bids to make daily life a little less stressful for people.
Trend Themes
1. On-demand Task Platforms - Apps like TaskRabbit are paving the way for on-demand task platforms that connect users with vetted helpers.
2. Remote Services - This trend of connective chore-completion apps provides services remotely, which can be an opportunity for businesses to expand their reach beyond physical stores and borders.
3. Gig Economy - Task apps are a defining factor of the gig economy and have disrupted traditional ways of work, providing gig workers with more flexible, remote, and varied opportunities.
Industry Implications
1. Task Management Software - Task management software can take cues from TaskRabbit and design applications that vet and connect freelance service providers with clients for all kinds of chores or services.
2. Retail Industry - The retail industry can expand its customer base by partnering up with task apps like TaskRabbit to offer services like groceries and essentials delivery or personal shopping to those who may not have time or be able to visit a physical store.
3. Hospitality Industry - The hospitality industry can leverage this trend by partnering with on-demand apps to offer guests concierge-like services for tasks like dinner reservations, laundry, and housekeeping.
