Linkio

Ever noticed that gig-centric apps are behind the times? In less than 30 seconds we can order a ride or track a meal to our door, yet getting a quote for something as simple as a lawn maintenance task is a massive headache

Linkio is the solution that’s set to revolutionize the gig marketplace as we know it: Designed to connect those in need of a service with anyone who can provide that service. It’s simple, it’s streamlined, it’s cost-effective— it’s the future.

HOW LINKIO WORKS

Linkio is a dual-sided platform where those who need a service (clients) receive real-time offers from those who can provide it (freelancers or companies).

WHO IS LINKIO FOR

Linkio opens the doors to enable ANYONE with a clear background check to earn money with gig-based tasks. On our app, you’ll find:

ALL these providers will bid on your task, and you can make your final decision based on price, experience, and reviews.

OUR STORY

Linkio isn’t just a “venture” to us. It’s personal. Our family emigrated from Cuba 16 years ago, and our dad became a house painter to sustain our family.

Finding new clients was always difficult for him, and money was tight. So we started searching for apps to help him secure new gigs. Nothing seemed to fit, and that’s when the idea for Linkio was born.

As we started the development process, it became clear that Linkio was much more than just a home improvement app. In just the first three months of the platform going live, our dad made over $1,500 from jobs not even related to painting! It was an unprecedented source of income for him, and the possibilities were huge.

DEVELOPING LINKIO: THE EARLY STAGES

Developing Linkio was a journey in trial, error, and user experience. But eventually, we landed on a design that resonated with our target audience. Clean, streamlined, and easy to use.

VALIDATING AN IDEA: OVER $500,000 RAISED IN 3 WEEKS!

We knew that Linkio was an awesome idea, but what about everyone else? The answer: They loved it! Seven months after creating the company, we asked our friends and families if they would invest in Linkio. We showed them the designs, the idea, the potential, and without even a working beta we raised over $500,000 in 3 weeks! More than 60 investors from different backgrounds joined forces to help us build and launch the app. We will be forever grateful for their trust and support.

THAT MOMENT WHEN YOU HEAR ITS FIRST WORDS...

"Hi, I'm your provider from Linkio. I'm 5 minutes away!"

We wanted to have the Linkio experience as a client, and we had this nightstand from IKEA that had been sitting at a corner for literally three months waiting to be assembled. We took a picture and posted: "Nightstand needs assembly." In less than 5 minutes, we got an offer, and two more shortly afterward. We accepted an offer from a local college student, and she sent us a message through the app immediately. Soon afterward, we got the call and she arrived to assemble the nightstand.

After being so focused on the app, the analytics of everything, and a million other things it was hard to contain our emotions during that first call. Linkio was alive, and we had hardly even realized it.

WHY INVEST?

Before launching full-scale, we ran a three-month beta test limited to the Miami area. The results were staggering:

OUR USERS LOVE US

UX is everything in the app world, so we’ve prioritized creating a seamless interface that our users love.

OUR BUSINESS MODEL

Linkio is free to download, free to register, and free to post jobs or make offers. Our revenue model is fee-based and divided between the client and the provider, with no in-app ads to detract from the user experience. The client pays a 10% service fee and the provider a 15% commission. This way, no fees are too high for either party. And because clients usually receive multiple offers, the prices are still much lower than in the general marketplace.

WHAT'S NEXT?

With these numbers in hand, we’re projecting our revenues to grow to as much to $61,000/month by the end of the year.

Version 3.0

The next step in our journey will be the launch of Linkio version 3.0—developed. using all the data and feedback collected during our test launch. Version 3.0 will be the interface we launch to the world, with immediate plans to expand into all 50 states and ultimately the global marketplace.
