Built to solve the chaos of finding trustworthy service providers through informal channels like Telegram groups and word-of-mouth. --- ## 🔍 The Problem We Solve In Ethiopia, finding a reliable technician—whether a plumber, electrician, or cleaner—is frustrating. Customers rely on scattered Telegram groups, social media posts, or personal recommendations, with no way to verify skills, see past work, or ensure accountability. Jobs go unfinished, payments are handled informally, and trust is broken on both sides. On the other hand, skilled technicians struggle to market themselves. They distribute paper flyers, rely on word-of-mouth, or post in chaotic online groups, limiting their visibility and professional growth. There's no centralized way to showcase their certifications, build a reputation, or find consistent work. **Haseri solves this by creating a single, trusted platform where customers post jobs, browse verified technician profiles, communicate in real-time, pay securely, and leave reviews—all in one place.** --- ## 👥 Features by Actor ### 🔹 For Customers | Feature | Description | |---------|-------------| | Quick Registration | Sign up with email/phone or Google in seconds | | Post Jobs | Create detailed job posts with category, budget, location, and description | | Browse & Filter | Search open jobs by category, city, or keyword | | Verified Technicians | View profiles with ratings, reviews, skills, and verification badges | | Real-Time Chat | Message technicians directly after job assignment | | Secure Payments | Pay via Chapa (Telebirr, CBE Birr, Bank) | | Review System | Leave ratings and feedback after job completion | | Free Trial | First 3 job posts are completely free | ### 🔹 For Technicians (Providers) | Feature | Description | |---------|-------------| | Professional …
