Private Equity Is
Buying the Trades.
We Are Building What Beats It.

The independent home-services marketplace: bids instead of lead fees, Stripe escrow instead of hope, and the category's only open pricing dataset.

The problem, part one

One Lead Fee. Two Losers.

Legacy platforms charge pros $15–$75 per lead, win or lose — and sell the same homeowner to 4–6 of them at once.

What the lead fee buys today $15–$75 per lead, paid before any work exists
  • Homeowner's number sold to strangers
  • Pros race 5 competitors to a phone call
  • Fee rolls into every quote
  • Market grades the model: ANGI at 0.54x revenue
What it costs on AllBetter $0 pros bid free; a flat 15% only on completed, approved work
  • Number hidden until the homeowner hires
  • Pros bid only on jobs they want
  • Platform earns only when work completes
  • Escrow protects both sides
The problem, part two

Roll-Ups Built a Price Umbrella.

KKR owns Neighborly. Roto-Rooter, ARS, Apex — local operators consolidated behind national brands, then priced 30–60% above local independents for the same work.

Local independent Base price PE / franchise brand +30–60% Same job Source: The Franchise Tax — AllBetter 2026 study, published methodology

Every quiet markup is a customer waiting for an alternative.

Why now

Three Forces, One Opening.

PE CONSOLIDATION price umbrella overhead AI ANSWER ENGINES cite open, structured data LABOR SCARCITY matching is the bottleneck THE TRANSPARENT MARKETPLACE the seat incumbents cannot take

Incumbents cannot publish prices without breaking their own economics. We already do.

How it works

From Post to Paid — Escrow in the Middle.

Post

60 seconds, free, photos and a zip. Phone number stays hidden.

Bids land

First bid in ~10 minutes in top metros; median 3 competing bids per job.

Escrow releases

Stripe holds the money until the customer approves the finished work.

The platform gets paid only when both sides got what they came for.

The data moat

22,582 Bids. Published.

Median high-vs-low spread on the same job, by trade — the information asymmetry this marketplace closes.

Angi cannot publish this without explaining what the lead fee bought.
