Live-video skill marketplace
Hereknows is where anyone can teach what they know over a live video call, and anyone can learn it, or get it fixed, paying only for the minutes they use.
Anyone. Anything.
Guitar at nine, spreadsheets at ten, Arabic over lunch, a washing machine that will not drain at six. Hereknows lists 795 skills in 30 categories, from cooking to code, and if yours is missing you add it in a tap.
How it works
Search a skill or describe the problem. See who teaches it, where they are, which languages they speak and whether they are online right now.
Book a time or start straight away. The call runs inside the app, camera on or voice only, and no phone numbers change hands.
The amount is held when you book and settled when the call ends. Finished early? You pay for the time used, down to the helper's minimum.
Urgent help
Type the problem, pick video or voice, set a budget per hour, and choose who should hear it: a country, a language, licensed professionals only.
Helpers who teach that skill are notified at once. The first to say yes ends the wait.
You see up to five helpers, ranked by skill, how close they are, their rating and the languages you share. Choose one and the call starts.
One tap sends the same request back out to new helpers. The one you just spoke to is left off the list.
For sellers
A title, what happens in a session, a price per hour, and the shortest and longest session you take. One-off, weekly or daily. Live in two minutes, with no approval queue.
Your profile carries your ID ticks, your languages, the skills you can help with, an intro video and up to five photos of your work.
The buyer's money is held when a session is booked and settled to you when it ends. Take urgent calls as well, or switch them off.
Who sells
Most skills never reach a classroom. Someone learnt them the hard way and would gladly show you for half an hour. Hereknows gives that person a way to be found, and a way to be paid.
The film
From a typed request to a helper on the line and a settled bill.
Trust
Phone, email, a live selfie and a government ID before anyone can book, sell or take an urgent call. Only the result is kept.
Recordings are kept for 30 days for safety and disputes, then deleted.
Not what was promised? Tell us within five days and we check the recording.
Skills that need a licence, from counselling to electrical work, show a verified badge once we have seen the document.
Hereknows is for adults. Every account is checked to be 18 or over.
Coming soon
Hereknows is in private testing with its first sellers. The app arrives on the App Store and Google Play soon.
