Why Workish?
Teens get real-world experience and income. Parents get oversight. Neighbors get the simple help they need.
The gap we’re closing
- Teen income & responsibility. Teens want to earn, but options are limited, irregular, or unsafe. Workish creates a path to earn locally with clear expectations and receipts for the real world.
- Parent oversight that didn’t exist. Traditional “knock and ask” jobs leave parents in the dark. With Workish, parents approve tasks, see messages, set curfews/hour limits, and can require check-ins or presence.
- A marketplace for everyday jobs. Homeowners often don’t need a full service company—just raking, walkway shoveling, pet care, or help carrying boxes. Workish makes those tasks easy to request and easy to say yes to.
- Community-first. Neighbors hire neighbors. Earnings stay local. Teens learn professionalism and customer service in low-risk, age-appropriate work.
