Detailed Plan

Challenge

What applications will provide the most value for end users in 2021?

Problem

Gig apps offer their service providers insulting wages, making them dependent on tips from generous customers. At the same time they charge consumers exorbitant fees which often results in lower tips for the service providers. Businesses often report a loss of revenue when utilizing delivery apps due to high fees and overpriced promotional features. They misrepresent businesses by marking up store items and keeping the profits. Inefficiencies with in-app functionality leads to frustrations for all and loss of revenue for small businesses and contractors.

Additionally, gig-app workers and freelancers with diverse skill sets are forced to utilize multiple applications since each app is limited to a specific field. A straw poll on Reddit revealed that some gig app workers were using 4 apps on 3 phones to make just $25 per hour. Ultimately, the gig economy is rigged in favor of big businesses that profit largely off of small businesses desperate for more revenue, and the deceptive wage structure they use to compensate independent contractors.

Solution

Create a decentralized platform that empowers local markets to establish fare rates for goods and services. Reduce or remove unnecessary fees and commissions. Leverage crypto incentives to create a digital ecosystem for the independent workforce. Utilize smart contracts to create a service provider toolkit customizable for all industries. By creating a state of the art task marketplace powered by cutting edge technology we can successfully onboard millions of new users to the Cardano eco-system and inspire a new era of equity for the self employed.
