The Challenge
GetUrban, an app developed by founders João Vitor Fagundes and Vinicius Heinz Knaesel, was created to address the challenge of connecting skilled labor to people who require building services. The founders recognized a gap in the market where individuals and businesses struggled to find reliable, skilled labor for their building needs. The process of finding the right professional with the necessary skills and expertise was often time-consuming and inefficient. Furthermore, professionals in the building industry lacked a platform where they could showcase their skills and services, making it difficult for them to reach potential customers.
About The Customer
GetUrban's customers are individuals and businesses who require building services. These customers may range from homeowners looking for skilled labor for home renovations or repairs, to businesses needing professional services for larger construction projects. The platform is also beneficial for professionals in the building industry, providing them with a platform to showcase their skills and services, and connect with potential customers. The platform is particularly useful for these professionals as it provides them with increased visibility and access to a wider customer base.
The Solution
GetUrban was developed as a solution to this challenge. The platform operates by allowing professionals to create a profile where they can list their area of expertise, skills, and services, similar to a social network. Customers can then search for a specific service or professional, with the selection made according to the filters placed. After selecting a profile, the customer can view the professional's portfolio, location, and request a budget through a chat within the platform. There is also a quick search option, which does not require login and provides three professional suggestions. The platform was developed using Bubble, a no-code tool, which allowed for a faster development process compared to traditional programming.
Operational Impact
  • The operational results of GetUrban have been positive, with the platform successfully connecting skilled labor to people who need building services. The platform has simplified the process of finding and hiring skilled labor, making it more efficient for both customers and professionals. Professionals are able to showcase their skills and services, and customers can easily find and hire the right professional for their needs. The platform's success is evident in its growing user base and the number of service budgets requested. Furthermore, GetUrban is in pre-incubation with CoCreation Lab Biguaçu - SC / Brazil, indicating its potential for further growth and development.
