About Needy

In our fast-paced world, finding reliable, trustworthy help for everyday tasks—whether it's accompanying an elderly parent to a doctor's appointment, fetching groceries, or simply needing a companion—has become increasingly difficult and stressful.

Generic gig-economy platforms often treat these sensitive tasks just like delivering a package. But when you are trusting someone with your loved ones or your home, the standard of care needs to be fundamentally higher.

That's why Needy was created. We are a hyperlocal trust platform first, and a service marketplace second. Every single helper on our platform is verified with a government ID, a live selfie and a short video, each reviewed by a person. We've built in an in-app alarm, live tracking, a one-time code at the door, and strict privacy controls.

Our mission is simple: to connect those in need with verified, compassionate helpers in their community, ensuring that everyone feels safe, respected, and supported.
