The opportunity
Home maintenance and repair in Italy is a multi-billion euro industry. Yet there is no dominant platform connecting demand with supply at the local level. Most people still rely on personal contacts, outdated phone directories, or random social media posts to find a plumber, electrician, or painter.
Millions of independent workers with no online presence. They get work through referrals and have no tools to manage their visibility or reputation.
Homeowners need workers close to them, available now. Generic directories don't solve this. Repary is built around location-first matching.
Without ratings or track records, homeowners gamble every time they hire someone new. A transparent review system changes the game.
Start city by city, category by category. The marketplace model gets stronger as both sides grow. Network effects compound over time.

Questions
Home repair in Italy is still offline. When a pipe breaks or a wall needs repainting, most people ask friends or scroll through Facebook groups hoping for a recommendation. There is no structured, trustworthy platform to find local professionals. Repary fills that gap.
Traditional directories are static lists with no quality signal. Repary is built around three things they lack: geo-localized matching (you only see workers near you), verified client reviews (tied to real jobs), and structured profiles that let workers present their skills, availability, and past work.
The initial focus is on building a strong two-sided network. Monetization options include premium visibility for workers, featured placements, lead generation fees, and partnerships with suppliers and insurance providers. The priority right now is critical mass.
The home maintenance and renovation market in Italy exceeds €40 billion annually. Much of it is served by micro-enterprises and independent workers with zero online presence. Even modest platform adoption translates into significant volume.
Repary is in the early concept and validation phase. The platform design, service categories, and user flows have been defined. The next steps are building the MVP, onboarding the first workers in a pilot city, and validating product-market fit.
