## What is TOOLHOP?

Stop buying tools you'll use once.

You need a circular saw for one weekend project. A pressure washer for the deck. A 24-foot ladder to clean your gutters. Buying it costs $200 and now it lives in your garage forever. Renting it from the hardware store means a $40 minimum, two trips, and a clock ticking the whole time.

There's a better option. Your neighbors already own all of it.

TOOLHOP turns your neighborhood into a tool library. Borrow what you need from people on your block. Lend what you have to earn from gear you already own. Skip the hardware-store run, the giant Home Depot rental fee, and the forever-clutter of buying every tool you'll ever need once.

WHAT YOU CAN BORROW

Power drills, circular saws, miter saws, table saws, jigsaws, routers, sanders, impact wrenches, jackhammers, concrete saws, plate compactors, mini excavators, skid steers, scissor lifts, drum sanders, paint sprayers, pressure washers, leaf blowers, snow blowers, lawn mowers, chainsaws, pole saws, log splitters, stump grinders, drain snakes, water jetters, MIG welders, plasma cutters, OBD2 scanners, floor jacks, pallet jacks, drywall lifts, dollies, ladders up to 40 feet, generators, scaffolding, thermal cameras, sewer cameras...

195+ tool types across 17 categories. All from neighbors a few doors away.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Browse tools listed in your neighborhood
2. Tap "Request to Borrow" and the owner gets your request in-app
3. Coordinate pickup, use it, return it

No hardware store. No buying tools you'll use once.

EARN FROM THE GEAR YOU ALREADY OWN

Every tool sitting in your garage is income waiting to happen. List a drill, a mower, a pressure washer — TOOLHOP suggests a fair daily rate based on your zip code, handles the request flow, and routes payment straight to your bank. Most owners are surprised what their seldom-used gear is worth on a Saturday morning.

DESIGNED FOR NEIGHBORHOODS, NOT MARKETPLACES

Every match is geofenced to a one-mile radius. You meet the person, not a profile. The whole point is that the swap happens between two people who live close enough to plausibly run into each other at the grocery store.

A FAIR PRICE TO BELONG

TOOLHOP is $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year (a 33% saving). Members get unlimited browsing, unlimited borrow requests, and the ability to list as many tools as they own. There are no per-borrow fees. There is no markup on owner rates. The subscription is the whole price.

CITIES WE'RE LIVE IN

Built by tinkerers, weekend warriors, and people who don't want a Home Depot membership.
