Boilerplate — copy-paste ready

AllBetter is a Chicago-built home-services marketplace that connects homeowners with ID-verified local pros through three connected apps: AllBetter for homeowners, JobPro for contractors, and Field, business software for home-service companies. Homeowners describe a job once and compare real bids from local pros — typically 3 bids in 10 minutes — with payment held in escrow from booking through completion. Founded in 2016 as ChoreRelief and rebranded to AllBetter in 2020, the company is 100% bootstrapped.

Founder & CEO — Tarik Khribech

Born in Morocco, built in Chicago. After a master's in Computer Science and early roles at Citi and Discover, Tarik launched his first business in 2008 and grew it to 400+ retail locations — then founded ChoreRelief in 2016 to fix how homeowners find help and how tradespeople find work.
