Vendors receive matching notifications and can submit proposals
Vendor profiles include certifications, past projects, and client reviews
Warm introduction feature: property managers can refer vendors to peers in their network

Target Users: Facade repair contractors and property managers in dense urban markets like NYC, managing 100+ units

Revenue Model: $49/mo per vendor subscription; free for property managers; $19 per successful match fee
