What does Agent Anything do?
People can post any service (“Mission”) they need accomplished (errands, tasks, research, anything) onto the website. They can then decide the price they are willing to pay, or they can elect to accept offers from Agents.
Students (“Agents”), using their university ID, can run these Missions in their free time and get paid the full amount offered.
How are they different?
- Only verified college Students can run Missions, so Customers are helping out Students by helping themselves
- Students can get verified in seconds, so they can start running Missions immediately
- Customers only pay AFTER their Mission has been completed to their satisfaction
- The cost of having someone run a Mission is extremely low
Why could Agent Anything be BIG?
Pretty much everybody has more on their plate than they can handle on a daily basis. This is a huge problem in our society, not just in terms of productivity and efficiency, but also in terms of stress and well-being. Until now, this problem has never really had an adequate, affordable solution.
With Agent Anything though, people can get help with all of their little tasks: walking the dog, picking-up groceries, moving, finding a vacation condo…Anything!
This isn’t some concierge service that charges $40-50 per hour with a minimum of 18 units of 2 hours each and a 24-hour advanced reservation policy. Agent Anything connects you directly with college students, and with college employment levels lower than they’ve been in years, there are sure to be plenty of students who are available right now and would be happy to take $10-15 to run an errand.
How they plan to make money:
This would be like ordering-in dinner. Eating all of it. And then only paying for the food if you liked the meal.
