Asunción, Paraguay – Celebrating its fifth anniversary, the "Hand" app has become a cornerstone of Paraguay's gig economy, fostering trust, responsibility, and transparency while revolutionizing how homeowners connect with local skilled tradespeople. Launched with the mission to bolster local economies and provide accessible home repair solutions, "Hand" has seen remarkable growth, driven by its commitment to empowering both its users and the professionals it serves.

CEO Laura Ojeda emphasizes the app's unique approach, stating, "Our vision was to create a platform that not only solves everyday household problems but also champions the talent within our communities. By prioritizing trust, we've built a thriving ecosystem where experts are motivated to deliver exceptional service."

Building a Foundation of Trust and Efficiency

"Hand" distinguishes itself through a robust rating and review system, ensuring accountability and fostering a competitive environment that elevates service quality. This dual-sided approach offers significant advantages:

Seamless Access: Users enjoy free registration and can effortlessly schedule services at their convenience, while professionals gain access to a broad customer base.
Verified Expertise: Rigorous background checks and identity verification processes ensure the safety and trust of every transaction.
Professional Development: "Hand" provides its experts with valuable educational resources, empowering them to enhance their skills and achieve financial independence.
Transparent Feedback: A comprehensive rating and review system ensures transparency, enabling users to make informed decisions and driving continuous improvement.

User-Friendly Platform and Expanding Reach

Available on both iOS and Android platforms, "Hand" simplifies the process of finding reliable professionals. Users can easily browse through a variety of services, including plumbing, electrical work, and air conditioning repair, and filter professionals based on location, experience, and ratings. In-app communication tools facilitate direct interaction, allowing for seamless scheduling and real-time updates.

"Weekends are our busiest periods, reflecting the immediate needs of our users," Ojeda notes. "We've seen a significant surge in activity since October, and we're excited to see 'Hand' become a household name, not just in Asunción, but across Paraguay."

Driving Economic Growth and Job Creation

"Hand" has emerged as a pivotal platform for independent job growth in Paraguay, contributing significantly to the nation's economic development. As the app continues to expand its reach and services, it remains committed to its core mission of connecting communities and empowering local talent.
