The Problem

Malaysians waste 3-5 days finding a reliable plumber, electrician, or aircond technician. Nobody answers calls, WhatsApp messages get ghosted, and quoted prices swing wildly from RM80 to RM500 for the same job. Facebook community groups are flooded with "Does anyone know a good plumber in Subang?" posts that get 50 replies of random phone numbers with no quality signal. This is the #1 recurring complaint in Malaysian neighborhood groups.

Users describe the problem with photos → AI estimates price range → nearest available verified technician accepts within 15 minutes. All technicians rated, background-checked, and insured.
