General bug fixes and performance improvements.

When you need to hire someone – a contractor, DJ, photographer, anyone – Thumbtack finds them for you, for free. No cold calling. No asking neighbors if they a know a guy. Thumbtack has thousands of local pros for your projects. Home professionals, wedding vendors, tutors, teachers, trainers contractors, cleaning services, movers, dog walkers, home repair help. Well, that was a mouthful. But you get the idea.

The Thumbtack app connects you with local professionals for pretty much any project on your to-do list

The app is completely free to use. Just choose the service you need (or chores you want covered) and we’ll show you a list of talented local pros you can hire. Compare prices, read reviews, schedule appointments, book professionals instantly, or hire them after you chat – all in the app.

Here’s how it works:

• Find local service professionals through a quick search
