The Home Services
Ecosystem.
Angi sells leads. Thumbtack sells clicks. Contractor Guardians captures revenue at every stage of a home project — from contractor matching to insurance to inspections to payments. One platform, six revenue streams, a trillion-dollar market.
A Broken Industry
The home services market exceeds $1 trillion and growing. Yet the dominant platforms — Angi, Thumbtack, Houzz — operate on a model that frustrates both sides: homeowners get unvetted contractors, contractors get overpriced shared leads, and nobody provides project protection. Angi was sued by the FTC for deceptive practices. The market is ready for disruption.

The Moat
Competitors can copy our UI. They can match our pricing. What they can't replicate is the ecosystem lock-in — when a homeowner's insurance agent, inspector, realtor, AND contractor are all on the same platform, switching costs become enormous. Every new participant makes the platform more valuable for everyone else. That's the network effect competitors can't buy.
