Problem solving with Yada

Why Yada?

Yada connects people who need help with locals who can do the job - fast, easy, and trusted.

For customers, it solves the hassle of finding reliable help for everyday things like cleaning, gardening, or odd jobs - without chasing people through Facebook or waiting days for replies.

For service providers, it’s a simple way to get real work without paying for ads, managing multiple apps, or being tied to a rigid schedule. Whether you're a student, retiree, or side hustler - Yada helps you earn on your terms.

We make it easier to get help, and easier to offer help - all in one smart, local platform.

Dealing with Customers pain points:

  • "I don't know who to trust."

    → Fear of scams, flaky providers, or unqualified people.

  • "I'm tired of posting in 5 different Facebook groups."

    → Community groups are cluttered and unstructured.

  • "It takes forever to get a reply."

    → Lack of fast, reliable communication or booking.

  • "I need someone for something small, but no one replies."

    → Big agencies ignore micro-jobs.

  • "I don't want to call 10 people to get quotes."

    → Phone tag and uncertainty, plus the specialist online ads are often outdated.

  • "Tradies are booked out for weeks, but I just need a fence screw fixed."

    → Small jobs often get deprioritized.

  • "I don't want to deal with unclear prices."

    → Frustration over unclear payments or pricing surprises.

  • "I'm new to town and don’t know who to call."

    → Lack of network = helplessness.

  • "I just want one place to find anyone - babysitter, dog walker, tutor, gardener."

    → Too many platforms to manage different types of help.

Dealing wih Specialists pain points:

  • "It's hard to find clients without paying for ads or leads."

    → Expensive platforms with pay-to-play models.

  • "I get messages at 10 different places - too messy."

    → Jobs from Facebook, Messenger, Text, Word-of-Mouth - no consistency.

  • "I'm new and don’t have reviews yet."

    → Struggle to build trust on crowded platforms.

  • "I only want to work locally, not drive all over New Zealand."

    → Lack of local filtering = inefficient jobs browsing.

  • "I want side gigs but don’t have time to promote myself."

    → Especially for students, parents, part-time workers.

  • "I hate negotiating every single time."

    → Desire for preset rates, structure, and easier transactions.

  • "People keep asking me for favours because I'm not 'professional'."

    → Struggle to turn casual skills into income (e.g. babysitting, tutoring).

  • "I want flexibility - not to be locked into a schedule."

    → Need to choose when and how to work.

  • "I've got skills but no license or formal business setup."

    → Want to earn without being GST-registered or running an official company.
