Tell us a task. A person goes and does it.

Ask for something that needs doing in the real world, like picking up an order, buying groceries and bringing them to you, or booking a ride. P0 plans it and shows you the price. Once you approve it, a person does it in person and sends photos as proof, and you pay for each part as it happens.

Los Angeles only for now.

How it works

  1. Ask in your own words

    Say what you need and where. If something is missing, we ask.

  2. See the plan and the price

    You get the steps and a quote before anything happens: the price of the work, and a spending limit for anything bought or booked for you. Nothing is charged until you approve it.

  3. A person does it

    Someone goes and does the work in person and sends photos as each part is done. Where a service fits better, like a ride, we book it for you.

  4. Pay as it happens

    Your card is charged when each part of the task happens, not all at once. Things bought for you cost what they actually cost, up to the limit you approved, with no markup.

Where we work

For now we only take tasks in the Los Angeles area. We check where the work would happen before anything is charged, and we turn down tasks outside it.
