So…what’s neu?

neu is a reliable platform that provides quality cleans, on-demand.

Simply put, we connect housekeepers and domestic workers with those in need of service.
‍
For cleaners, we’re a modern alternative to an agency. We help them find stable, consistent, and high-paying work based on their availability. For vacation rental hosts and homeowners, we provide access to a network of vetted service providers to foster peace of mind and streamline on-demand cleaning. For guests, we improve their vacation experience. We help ensure that they check-in to a clean space, with fresh linens, and all amenities needed for them to enjoy their vacation.
‍
Currently, we’re disrupting the vacation rental industry, but inevitably, we’ll build the world’s largest cleaning platform.

As a Superhost, Kwame struggled to find a reliable cleaning solution for his Airbnb’s. After years of frustration, he decided to do something about it by first co-founding his own vacation rental cleaning company. However, it was this experience that opened his eyes to the hardships that many cleaners today face. With this fresh perspective, he later co-founded neu to make a difference, positively influence the industry, and build the reliable service platform that he once sought.

Claudius Mbemba - CTO
