Traction and Current Status

Recently launched a new app and a B2B property-manager channel at ~58% gross margin. Regional finalist at The Pitch by Deel Dubai (top 40 of 40,000+). Now raising to scale.
Problem or Opportunity
When something breaks at home a burst pipe, a dead boiler, an electrical fault people are stuck. The home services market is fragmented across thousands of sole traders, so finding a vetted, available technician means calling around for hours, with no transparency on price, quality, or arrival time. In an emergency, that delay means water damage, no heating, or no power. We solve this by using AI to instantly match each customer with the right vetted local technician and dispatch one to their door in ~30 minutes turning a stressful, hours-long search into a single tap.
Solution
Best Technicians is an AI-powered marketplace the emergency app for your home. A customer reports their problem in the app, and our AI instantly identifies the right trade, matches it to the best-fit vetted technician nearby based on location, skills, and availability, and dispatches them to the door in around 30 minutes. Every technician on the platform is vetted and rated, pricing is transparent upfront, and the whole job from request to payment runs through the app. We cover plumbing, heating, electrical, and drainage across the UK, Spain, and Canada, with 10,000+ vetted technicians a
Business Model, Chanells, Metrics
An AI-powered marketplace: free for customers, with a ~50% commission on each technician transaction. Layered with two higher-margin channels a B2B "preferred supplier" channel for property managers (~58% gross margin) and a tiered subscription home-protection plan that converts one-off jobs into recurring revenue. A dual UK/Albania structure gives us a structural cost advantage that protects margins as we scale.
