About us
Built in Calgary, by people who'd use it.
Handled is a student venture from the University of Calgary's entrepreneurship capstone. There's no live service yet. We're doing the research first.
Why we're doing this
Getting help at home often means phoning around, explaining the problem again and again, then waiting. Tradespeople have a different problem: they're on a job and can't pick up. We think one honest AI conversation can help both sides.
The team
Adnan, Van and Meenu. Three University of Calgary students who have all lost an afternoon to phone tag.
How we work
- We talk to people before we build.
- We don't make things up. No fake reviews, no fake numbers.
- The AI always says it's an AI.
- We start small. Plumbing and heating, in Calgary.
The plan
- Interviews with homeowners and professionals.
- A working demo, chat first.
- A small pilot with real Calgary requests.
This is our plan, not a promise. It will change as we learn.
