Problem
People who need help with everyday tasks or small jobs often struggle to find reliable, nearby individuals to complete them, while those offering services lack a trusted channel to find local work. Traditional job boards and service platforms are not hyperlocal, lack identity verification, and create friction in coordinating tasks and payments.
Solution
NOUU provides a hyperlocal marketplace where users can publish a task, set their own price, and receive applications from verified nearby solvers in minutes. The platform includes a chat system for coordination, direct payment arrangements between parties, and a rating system to build trust. NOUU also offers NOUU Work, a geolocated formal employment section with CV creation assistance and direct job applications, plus a business portal for companies to publish offers and manage verified local candidates. Every user validates their identity through biometric verification with Didit, ensuring a secure environment for both task posters and solvers.
Target Audience
