Onion — Home Services Platform

Booking a maid or cook should be as easy as ordering food — and working as one shouldn’t require reading English menus. Onion solved both sides: a polished customer experience, and a vendor app designed for real service workers.

Onion home services app built by Technosquare: home screen with cleaning and cooking, app splash and service provider selection

The challenge

The customer side needed flexible booking — a day, a month, or a one-off event — with verified, background-checked providers and every payment method Indian households actually use. The harder problem was the vendor side: many service providers aren't comfortable with text-heavy apps, so job alerts, acceptance and daily workflows had to work with minimal reading.

What we built

Phase one shipped the customer platform: service discovery for cleaning and cooking, date-range scheduling with provider selection (ratings, experience and vaccination badges visible), and checkout across UPI, cards, Paytm, COD and a wallet with discounts. Phase two delivered the vendor app with a voice-first design — spoken job announcements with distance, yes/no acceptance, press-to-speak interactions, OTP-verified job completion and a simple earnings dashboard. Attendance calendars with late/absent marking keep month-long bookings honest on both sides.

Customer app

A booking in four screens

From opening the app to a confirmed, paid booking. Each step asks for one decision and shows what the customer needs to make it.

After the booking

One booking, managed from both sides

The customer tracks and adjusts the service; the provider accepts, completes and gets paid for it. Both apps read from the same booking.
