Upkeep is a branded, capacity-controlled mobile service workforce platform — connecting customers with certified local technicians for on-site automotive and home services, at fixed prices, no surprises.
Skilled technicians exist everywhere. Customers need services constantly. The problem is no platform has unified them under a branded, quality-controlled, fixed-price system — until Upkeep.
The automotive service industry was built around fixed locations. In an era where groceries, prescriptions, and restaurants come to your door — car service still doesn't.
Independent service providers are highly skilled but spend enormous time on scheduling, marketing, invoicing, and customer communication — time they could spend earning.
Platforms like Thumbtack and Angi connect customers with providers but don't standardize pricing, certification, or service quality. Every booking is a gamble.
Home cleaning, auto maintenance, lawn care, and pool service all exist in separate silos — each with its own fragmented network of unbranded, unvetted providers.
Hourly rates, surge pricing, and negotiated quotes create anxiety before the service even begins. Customers want to know what they're paying before they book — period.
Without capacity controls, oversaturation drives technician earnings down and service quality suffers. Undersaturation leaves demand unmet. No platform manages this balance.
Upkeep is a branded, capacity-controlled system where independent technicians perform standardized service packages under a unified brand — with centralized scheduling, dispatch, pricing, quality control, and back-office support built in.
Every technician is certified before their first job. The matching engine dispatches based on performance scores, proximity, and availability — not just who's closest. High performers get more jobs. Standards are enforced automatically.
Each geographic zone has a defined maximum number of active technicians per service category. This prevents oversaturation, protects technician earnings, and ensures consistent service availability — a system no competitor has built.
Every service is a standardized package with a fixed price shown before booking. No hourly rates. No surge pricing. No surprises. Technicians who work efficiently complete more jobs — increasing their earnings without affecting customer pricing.
Scheduling, dispatch, payment processing, earnings ledgers, and tax reserve tracking are all handled by the platform. Technicians focus entirely on the work — Upkeep handles everything else, including a built-in sponsorship network for growth.
Every existing platform is a directory. Upkeep is an operating system for a branded mobile workforce — a fundamentally different model with fundamentally different outcomes.
For customers and technicians alike, Upkeep removes every point of friction from the service transaction.
Browse standardized service packages, see the price upfront, register your vehicle or property, and select a time window. No quotes, no calls, no negotiating.
The quality-gated matching engine identifies the highest-ranked certified technician in the zone — based on performance score and estimated arrival time — and dispatches automatically.
The customer tracks the technician in real time via the composite GPS icon. The tech performs the standardized service, completes the job in-app, and gets paid instantly.
Structured post-job feedback — ratings, experience tags, and comments — updates the technician's performance score. High performers rise. Quality is self-reinforcing.
Upkeep is built as a configurable multi-vertical service engine. Auto services are live now — home, outdoor, and specialty services expand on the same infrastructure.
Oil changes, battery replacement, brake pads, tire service, windshield repair, jump starts, lockouts, mobile fuel delivery, EV charging, and more.
Professional deep and recurring residential cleaning, dispatched through the same certified workforce and fixed-price system.
Mowing, edging, trimming, and outdoor maintenance — scheduled on-demand or on a recurring basis through the Upkeep platform.
Chemical balancing, skimming, filter service, and seasonal maintenance — certified pool technicians dispatched to residential properties.
Mobile van-based grooming with standardized packages — the fastest-growing delivery channel in the $45B pet services market.
The same certified workforce, capacity-controlled zones, and fixed-price infrastructure powers every new vertical added to the platform.
⚑ Patent Pending — System and Method for Managing a Capacity-Controlled, Certified Mobile Service Workforce Under a Unified On-Demand Platform
Upkeep removes every administrative burden of independent work. Get certified, get dispatched, get paid. The platform handles everything else.
No marketing. No bidding on leads. No cold calls. The platform dispatches jobs directly to your app based on your certifications, zone, and performance score.
Flat platform fee per job — not 30–45% like TaskRabbit. Efficiency is rewarded: the faster you work, the more jobs you complete, the more you earn per day.
Real-time earnings dashboards, detailed transaction logs, tax reserve allocation, and exportable income reports — all built into the technician app. No accountant needed.
Once your zone reaches capacity, you can sponsor additional technicians — earning a share of platform fees from every job they complete. Early movers earn more.
289 million vehicles. 145 million homes. A $750B home services market and a $199B auto services market — both still waiting for a unified, branded, mobile-first platform to organize them. That platform is Upkeep.
