A Hungarian startup launched Helpy, the Uber of cleaning

Change language:

Szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu writes that Helpy was created to reform cleaner mediation. Probably all of us have heard the question “Do you know a good cleaner?” Well, this is how it goes in Hungary, in the middle of digital revolution. This is what Helpy wants to change, which is a Hungarian startup that received a 150 thousand euro investment in March.

If you move to a new neighborhood but don’t know a good cleaner who you could trust with your home, or you just simply don’t have time and energy to look on the internet, then all you have to do is type Helpy.hu into the browser. Not to mention that, if you’re looking for someone trustworthy and someone who works at a high standard, well, you might not find that person simply on the internet.

So after you have typed in Helpy you can easily place an order. You can choose from five basic packages, based on, for instance, the size of your home, and then you can also choose extras (window cleaning, cleaning of the oven, fridge, doing laundry, ironing etc.). After this, you have to choose the time and date (you can ask for regular, once a week, once in two weeks, monthly cleaning) and give the details. All of this takes about 2-3 minutes.

From this point on, everything works just like with Uber, the system sends you a reminder before the cleaning day and an email asking for your feedback the next day. And this might be the most important part of the system. They pay attention to your feedback and make sure to only send reliable cleaners.

Something that might be even more attractive is that they send you to the closest place as they look at where you live and the places to be cleaned up. This way your 8 hour job won’t end up being 12 hours with travelling.
