Helpers is the Uber of home care with a technology platform that helps seniors and families request home care services on demand from a trusted network of caregivers. Helpers is focused on improving the convenience and flexibility of services by allowing customers to only pay for what they need, when they need it. Today's care can be rigid, unreliable and expensive. Helpers is setting out to change that with a passionate group of professionals on a mission to provide fast, personalized and reliable home care.
I can't remember.. is the app available now? Need beta testers? I am living this issue now with my inlaws. Great idea.
Hi @Michael, it's been a pleasure working with you. You and your team are incredibly driven and I know that this service will go on to help many people. Can you explain how you intend to scale Helpers outside of Hamilton and, eventually throughout Canada? I know this is answer could be long, but I'm just looking for a high level explanation. Also, can you provide a timeline? Thank you!
I am wondering if you can request the same caregiver if there is some time flexibility? I know someone like my mom would like some consistency.
How does charging by the service work? (i.e. are all services charged equally)
Congratulations Helpers on making it through the Synapse Competition! We're all impressed by the commitment and effort that you've put in over the last few months to get to this stage. We hope that participating in the Competition was a valuable experience for you - and remember, there are still lots of ways that Innovation Factory, the Synapse Consortium and the rest of the Hamilton ecosystem can provide support!
Hi, why do you charge per service, and not by the hour?
We are looking forward to hearing your questions and discussing our business in more detail with you.
