The group text you wish you had
You know the one. Six neighbors, three years deep, every message is "does anyone have a good electrician?" It works — when someone's around to answer.
Guy is that group text, on call 24/7, and it actually remembers.
Three moments Guy was made for
The "What Is This?" Moment
You're staring at a wet spot on the ceiling. You don't know if it's a leak, condensation, or a roof issue. You don't know who to call or how urgent it is. You text Guy a photo. Forty-five seconds later you know the problem, the urgency, the cost range, and which neighbor used a plumber who actually showed up.
"How did it know that from a photo?"
The Sidewalk Moment
Your neighbor asks who did your windows. You text Guy. Ten seconds later you're showing them the name, number, price, and your notes. They stare at your phone.
"How did you just do that?"
The 11pm Pipe
Water heater's dead. You're not Googling — you're not scrolling reviews from strangers. You text "plumber" and get back the name, number, and price from the last time someone you know actually used one.
"You still have his number?"
Save who you've used
Text Guy the name of a contractor and what they did. Guy asks the right follow-up questions and remembers everything — price, notes, whether they actually showed up on time.
Ask who your people use
Need a plumber? Text "plumber." Guy surfaces the one your neighbor Dave vouched for, your sister-in-law used last spring, and the one your church group has called twice this year. Names with faces, not stars from strangers.
Share with a name on it
Neighbor asks who did your gutters? Text "share Tom with Sarah." Guy sends Sarah a card with your name on the recommendation. No fumbling for the number. You're just the person everyone calls.
Snap a photo when you don't know what you're looking at
Water stain on the ceiling? Weird noise from the furnace? Text Guy a photo. You'll get the likely problem, how urgent it is, what it should cost, and the kind of pro you need — before you've called anyone.
Photo Diagnosis
Text Guy a photo of any home problem. Guy tells you what it is, how urgent it is, what it should cost, and who to call.
You text a photo
No commands. No account. Just send a photo of the problem to Guy's number.
Guy diagnoses it
Problem, urgency level, cost range, DIY option, and the right type of pro — in seconds.

Why this works when Yelp doesn't
Yelp reviews are from strangers. Thumbtack ratings are from people who don't know you. Even Nextdoor recommendations come from neighbors you've never actually met.
The recommendations you actually trust come from a much smaller circle: the people whose kids have been in your house, the friends you'd text at 9pm on a Tuesday, the neighbor you know by first name.
Guy is built around that circle.
A recommendation from your block beats a five-star review from a stranger every time.
What Guy Remembers
Your Block, Your Network
Create a private group for your street, church, school, or friend circle. When you need someone, you search your group first — real names, real recommendations, people you actually know.
Every recommendation has a name behind it. Not a stranger's five-star review.
