For international readers · the service itself is local and Portuguese-first
Home services from local tradespeople, in one Brazilian town.
Lydar is a two-sided marketplace for São José da Coroa Grande, Pernambuco. Residents post what they need, tradespeople from the same town respond, and the two sides agree on scope, price and timing in the app's chat.
How it works
Three steps, from request to agreement.
-
Step 1: A resident describes the job
Category, a description and photos of the place. Before anyone accepts, tradespeople see only the neighbourhood.
-
Step 2: Local tradespeople respond
Professionals who cover the area see the request and apply. The resident looks at each profile and picks who to talk to.
-
Step 3: They agree on it in the chat
Scope, price and timing. When the professional accepts the job, the exact address is released to them and the quote arrives in the same thread.
Real app screens, shown in Portuguese. Names, prices and messages belong to demo accounts.
Where it stands today
-
One town only
Lydar operates in São José da Coroa Grande, a coastal town in Pernambuco, Brazil. There are no other markets yet.
-
In beta testing
The app is live and used by a small group of residents and tradespeople while it is still being shaped.
-
Free, no payments handled
Posting, applying and chatting cost nothing. Lydar takes no cut and does not process payments: the two sides settle directly, by Pix or cash.
-
Web first, Android in testing
It runs in any mobile or desktop browser. The Android app is in Google Play closed testing. There is no App Store release.
