Task Bee

Micro-Contracting Enablement

Executive Summary

Taskbee is a startup to facilitate micro-contracting. The application aims to
reduce the friction between people who are looking for their work to be done
(Posters) and people who are looking to work on small tasks to earn some
money (Taskers).

Challenge

Taskbee being a multi-sided platform, requires a streamlined user experience
for both the types of users to interact. The efficacy and efficiency of the
platform depend on the backend that powers the listing and payments flow
along with the front end application which makes it easier for its users to use
the application

Solution

Our solutions, a redesigned backend and frontend web application that
enabled the posters to post the work on the platform. The registered taskers
could view the listing and use various filters to select the type of work they
would like to take up.
​
The automatic payment system ensures that the taskers receive the
payment as soon as the work is complete, maintaining transparency
between posters and taskers.

Features

Posters and taskers can sign up on Taskbee through their verified email ID’s.
The payment system charges a small signup fee from all the posters. The
poster can apply date and time constraints while posting the work. The
taskers can view all the constraints before accepting the task. A two-ended
inbuilt messaging system allows the posters and taskers to keep track of
their conversation and agreements.

The posters can select from an array of taskers depending on their ratings by
previous users. Once the poster accepts the request, the tasker gets a
notification of the acceptance. The tasker can complete the work and
receives the payment once the poster approves of the job done.
