Peer-to-peer platforms

Software for peer-to-peer platforms: exchanges that close themselves

The starting point

There's no operator to assign the task to here, but the task still exists.

In a peer-to-peer marketplace there's no operator to assign the task to: the actors are the users themselves and the algorithms that match them. But the work exists all the same, and something has to orchestrate it before a problem shows up.

What changes

How it works today

Support steps in when something has already gone wrong and there are two angry users.

How it works with Astrolle

The level of protection is decided before the meetup, based on the context of each exchange.

AI isn't here to replace your team

It's here to decide who handles what, and when, so people keep the part only they can do: judgment, relationships and exceptions.
