## What is GitHelp?

GitHelp connects Michigan homeowners with trusted, background-checked local workers for everyday home services — fast, simple, and fair.

FOR HOMEOWNERS
Post a job in minutes and get matched with a screened worker near you. No bidding wars, no haggling — just reliable help when you need it.

- House Cleaning, Lawn Care, Window Cleaning, and more
- Identity-verified and integrity-screened workers
- Transparent, upfront pricing — no surprises
- ASAP jobs filled in minutes
- Secure payments powered by Stripe — your card is never charged until a worker accepts
- Dispute protection — 24-hour review window before payment is released
- Before & after photos required on every job

FOR WORKERS
Find flexible, local work that fits your schedule. Get paid fast after every completed job.

- Browse available jobs in your area
- Set your own schedule and job radius
- Fast payouts directly to your bank account via Stripe
- No bidding — first to accept gets the job
- Build your reputation with customer ratings

BUILT ON TRUST
Every worker on GitHelp is background-checked through Checkr, identity-verified through Stripe Identity, and passes an integrity screening before their first job. Before and after photos are required on every job — so homeowners always know the work was done right.

GitHelp is currently available in Michigan.
