Maitri is a new way to ask for help. Our goal is to redefine & normalize asking for help in situations of need. Our user centric app is a help registry. Designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind, it empowers individuals going through life altering situations to better identify their needs and engage their community to build a support system they can lean on. Actionable tasks are easily shared with supporters and managed in a one centralized platform. It allows users to create tasks, prompting them to select from more common actions such as help with getting to a Dr. appointment, or running errands, and also create custom tasks. Tasks are then shared to the support circles, where friends, family and loved ones who have been invited can pick up tasks and assign themselves to support when and how they can. Key Features: *Turn needs into actionable tasks Our suggested list has got you covered! Choose one or more common tasks such as rides, errands, pet or child care, and even help with getting to a Dr. appointment, or having someone check in on you after a hard day, or create your own. Select a date, add a time and location, and you're all set! *Manage help in one centralized platform A one stop shop for all your help needs, Maitri is an efficient way to streamline managing help effectively. Do away with multiple DM threads, excels, calls, shared calendars and chats. Tasks are easily shared with your personal support circle, so letting supporters know how, what and when they could help is easy. Supporters can pick up tasks and assign themselves to tasks to help when and how they can with just a few clicks. *Build your own personal support circle Invite friends, family and loved ones, colleagues and peers to form a support system you can lean on so you can easily see your community rally behind you in times of need. Your personal invite link can easily be shared via text, or copied to an email, or even social media posts. *Don't miss a beat Our real-time notifications and reminders make sure everyone is up to date on upcoming tasks, asks and offers of support. In app and push notifications preferences can be configured to fit your needs.
