DoWork — marketplace for services.
Our project is a multi-language service marketplace that connects local clients with independent professionals (“masters”) across Europe, starting in Czechia. Clients can easily post requests and receive offers, while masters showcase services with their own prices and terms. The platform monetizes through subscriptions and credits for proposals, giving transparent access to jobs and efficient client acquisition for professionals.
Vision: To become Europe’s go-to marketplace for local services. Mission: Empower professionals with fair client access and give clients a simple, transparent way to hire trusted masters.
Our customers are local clients who need trusted services and independent specialists seeking fair access to new jobs, steady income, and growth opportunities.
Finding reliable specialists is stressful and time-consuming for clients, while specialists struggle to get fair access to new jobs without costly advertising or agencies. Our platform solves both: clients quickly find trusted specialists, and specialists gain transparent, affordable access to new clients and steady income.
The problem is serious because clients waste time and money on unreliable services, while specialists lose income and opportunities without fair, affordable access to clients.
We've designed DoWork as a convenient marketplace where clients can access trusted, reliable specialists while providing specialists with fair, cost-effective exposure to jobs.
Built with Angular and Spring Boot, powered by PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, and AWS cloud (ECS, RDS, S3, CloudFront) for scalability, speed, and reliability.
Clients post service requests, specialists respond with offers. Clients choose the best fit, while specialists access jobs via subscriptions or credits in a transparent, fair system.
Clients save time and money by finding trusted specialists fast. Specialists gain steady income, fair access to jobs, and growth without expensive advertising or middlemen.
