With the advancements in the technology and the speed at which use of internet has becoming so common, we have not yet realised that we have started outsourcing our lives to these new apps.

For example.. you want to go to a place. Rather then driving or if you don't have a car, you can just use Uber!

Another one! You are done with your work day and now too tired to cook up your own food. What you do? You would just order food on Uber Eats! and Voila! food is at your door within 30 minutes.

In above two examples, you saw example of using two apps for deriving services. But if you think deeper , You have outsourced your work.. iNstead of driving yourself… you outsourced that work to an uber driver. Same as with Uber eats or Skip the Dishes food ordering apps! You outsourced the work to another person.

Now , the examples I gave you were pretty normal , let talk about UrbanClap.

Whats Urban Clap?

Through their app, you can book at home services — from beauty & wellness for women and men, to home repairs and maintenance services, such as carpenter, electrician and plumber. The complete list of at home services is as follows:
