Providers are typically freelancers or 'gig workers'. Sourcing of them includes location, time frame, and estimated cost. Full interaction via videoconference will be possible. The transaction is arranged and executed via the app, payment is certified, and automatic follow up happens to ensure customer satisfaction. Think of us as 'Uber' or 'Skip the Dishes' for services.","story":"Finding trustworthy service providers remains a challenge in today's digital age. While platforms like TaskRabbit and Thumbtack operate locally, they prioritize wide-reaching networks over tight-knit community connections and deep neighborhood ties.Existing marketplaces are heavily geared toward gig-based or online services, leaving a significant gap for truly local, on-demand connections. This creates frustration for both customers and freelancers while fostering mistrust due to payment uncertainties and lack of transparency.The result? Communities lack a reliable, localized marketplace that bridges the gap between clients and service providers, supporting trust, fairness, and sustainable economic growth for freelancers and small businesses. Peresia addresses these challenges with a seamless, secure platform that connects local talent to local needs while ensuring payment protection for all.SolutionWe’re addressing the demand for a secure, community-engaging, on-demand service platform that focuses on\u0026nbsp;local services\u0026nbsp;beyond\u0026nbsp;just household tasks, handyman work, or moving help.\u0026nbsp;What’s Different?Unlike competitors, Peresia prioritizes local service providers, employs a gig-based payment system that protects freelancers, and enhances communication with integrated chat and video features.\u0026nbsp;Additionally, the platform allows service providers to upload their Background check documents and certifications. It also has the subscription based in-app feature, the Golden Circle membership that boosts visibility for freelancers and creates an additional revenue stream.Safety, Security, CommunityOur integrated chat and video features enable clear communication and flexibility in the job.\u0026nbsp;Our in-app, secured and escrow like payment system requires the client to upload funds to start the job, guaranteeing the payment security for the freelancer. The same guarantees the fund security for the client by holding the payment until the job is done up to the expected level.Our transparent review system actively builds community trust and maintains high service standards.Market PotentialThe on-demand service market is projected to grow significantly, with an estimated value of $3.7 billion and a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%.\u0026nbsp;With over 57 million freelancers in the U.S., projections suggest this number could rise to 86.5 million freelancers by 2027. Peresia is perfectly positioned to tap into this expanding market by fostering local connections that traditional platforms overlook.Profit ModelPeresia's revenue model is designed for sustainable growth and scalability. By keeping the platform free for service providers while implementing a tiered transaction fee structure for clients, we maintain a low barrier to entry while generating revenue from each successful connection.\u0026nbsp;Our innovative Golden Circle membership program creates an additional recurring revenue stream, incentivizing top performers and driving platform loyalty.The gig economy is growing. The need for trust is critical. The time is now.\u0026nbsp;Invest in Peresia and help us build the future of secure local services. Your investment doesn't just back a platform – it empowers communities, protects service providers, and ensures safer transactions for everyone.","location":"San Francisco, CA","website":"https://peresia.net/","total_amount_raised":0,"total_investors":0,"is_funded":false,"is_active":false,"related_urls":["https://wefunder.com/peresia","https://peresia.net/"]},"media":{"share_image_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/header_media_photo/108756/xxl_blob.jpg","logo_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/logo/108756/large_blob","header_media_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/header_media_photo/108756/standard_blob.jpg","cover_photo_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/header_media_photo/108756/standard_blob.jpg"},"links":{"company_url":"https://peresia.net/","linkedin_url":"https://linkedin.com/company/peresia-technologies","facebook_url":"https://facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093977155195"},"highlights":[],"quick_facts":[{"index":1,"claim_id":"claim-fact-1","value":"Hyperlocal marketplace connecting communities with service providers right in their community."},{"index":2,"claim_id":"claim-fact-2","value":"Services beyond home repairs and moving help, like personal training, tutoring, and more."},{"index":3,"claim_id":"claim-fact-3","value":"Escrow-like payments provide guaranteed security, ensuring tasker gets paid for the\u0026nbsp;work\u0026nbsp;completed."},{"index":4,"claim_id":"claim-fact-4","value":"Secured in-app payments ensure your funds are protected until the job is completed as required."},{"index":5,"claim_id":"claim-fact-5","value":"In-app chat and video calls ensure seamless communication between taskers\u0026nbsp;and\u0026nbsp;clients."},{"index":6,"claim_id":"claim-fact-6","value":"Multiple revenue streams through in-app features and memberships."}],"team":[{"id":2527841,"entity_id":"wefunder:company_role:2527841","user_entity_id":"wefunder:user:323675","role":"founder","name":"Gus Lazopoulos","title":"Co-Founder / Chief Executive Officer","bio":"Peresia CEO Gus Lazopoulos brings 20+ years of tech, logistics, and real estate experience.
