Cabs and home services for your parent, arranged for them
Booking a cab or a plumber through an app is easy for us and hard for many elderly parents. With Hassist, your parent simply asks, and the team helps arrange it through trusted providers.
Key facts
- Cabs and home services arranged through providers like Uber and Urban Company
- Your parent or the family asks on WhatsApp
- The booking and the final bill appear on the family dashboard
- Provider charges are paid separately; the service depends on providers in your parent’s city
Why parents need help with bookings
Many elderly parents are not comfortable booking through apps, entering addresses or paying online. A small job at home or a ride to the temple can wait for days because nobody is around to book it.
How it works
Your parent or the family sends a request on WhatsApp. The Hassist team arranges the booking with a provider, and the request shows on the family dashboard with its status.
Clear bills, paid by the family
Once the service is arranged, the final bill appears on the dashboard. The family pays it online, and the booking details and invoice go to the registered family member.
Availability
On-demand services depend on the availability of service providers in your parent’s city, so some services may not be available everywhere.
