A free AI helper that gets your home fixed
by a screened local pro.
You describe the problem once; we tell you what’s likely wrong and what it should cost. Then only screened pros you approve can call — nobody else gets your number.
Getting home services the usual way
- You fill out a form to “compare pros.”
- Your number goes out to a call list.
- Your phone rings for a week.
- Three sales visits later, you finally learn what’s involved.
Getting them through nearby.ai
- You describe it once — the AI shapes a clear request.
- You see the request before anything goes out.
- Only matched, screened pros respond — through a protected line.
- You pick who to talk to. The phone stays quiet otherwise.
Four questions every homeowner faces.
One honest place to ask them.
Each answer arrives before you give anyone your name or number — that’s the point.
“What’s wrong with my house?”
Send a photo or describe it like you’d tell a neighbor. You get the likely cause and how urgent it is — including “this can wait” and “stop, call your utility now.”
“What should this cost?”
The Fair Price Check: six questions, then a fair local range — repair and replacement side by side, dated, with its assumptions named.
“Is this quote fair?”
Hold any quote against the local range for the same scope of work. Too high, you’ll see it. Fair? We say fair — knowing that is worth just as much.
“Can I trust this company?”
License checked against state records, insurance confirmed, business real at its address — each with the date we check, and what we don’t check in plain sight.
From “something’s broken”
to “someone’s on it”
Say it your way
No forms, no jargon. Just describe what’s going on — or send a photo — like you’d tell a neighbor.
We shape the request
The AI asks a few smart questions — only what pros actually need — and builds your request as you talk.
Local pros respond
Screened pros near you get your request and reach out. Your contact info stays protected.
AI that helps you take care
of your home.
Whatever your home needs
Start with any of these — or just describe your problem and we’ll figure out who you need.
Roofing“My shingles blew off in the storm”
Plumbing“The faucet won't stop dripping”
Electrical“An outlet stopped working”
Heating & Air Conditioning“AC is blowing warm air”
Cleaning“Deep clean before the in-laws visit”
Landscaping & Lawn Care“The yard's gotten away from me”
Painting“One wall needs patching and paint”
Flooring“Cracked tile in the kitchen”
Pest Control“The ants keep coming back”
Gutters“Overflowing every time it rains”
Garage Doors“It won't close all the way”
Handyman“A dozen little things need fixing”Don’t trust the promises.
Check the rules.
These are the rules we’re launching with — written down now, so you can hold us to them.
Free for homeowners — always.
You never pay to use nearby.ai. And when the honest answer is “don’t hire anyone,” you’ll hear it — we’d rather you trust the next answer.
NEVER
Your number passed around
Getting answers puts you in front of nobody. Not “partners.” Not “affiliates.” Nobody.
NEVER
Five contractors calling
A company can contact you only after you look at that specific business and approve it yourself.
NEVER
Rank for sale
Contractors won’t be able to pay to be shown first, at any price. The day they can, nothing else here is true.
What we’ll check on every pro — dated
- State license, against official records — shown with the date we check
- Insurance certificate, active with the carrier
- Business really operates at its listed address
- State complaint record
What we won’t check — in plain sight
- The background of the individual technician at your door
- Workmanship — we verify records, not roofs
- Their final price — that’s why you get the fair range first
And the limits, stated up front
- A photo isn’t an inspection. This is a first opinion, and we say how confident we are in each one.
- When we can’t tell, we say “we can’t tell from this” — never a guess, never a false all-clear.
- When our local data is thin, we say that too — a wide honest range beats a narrow fake one.
- We’ll publish how often our ranges match final invoices — including the misses.

When can I use it?
Soon — we’re opening one area at a time. Check back here; the moment nearby.ai is live near you, the AI helper opens at the top of this page.
What’s the catch? Nothing is free.
For homeowners it is — nearby.ai costs you nothing, ever. And only pros you approve can reach you, through a protected line.
How do you screen the pros?
Every pro will be screened before they can receive requests, and pros that homeowners report will be removed. This will not be a scraped directory.
Who sees my information?
Only pros matched to your request, and only what the job needs. Calls go through a protected number until you choose to share yours.
Next time something breaks,
just say it.
