Sektion 02 · Pain points → Solution

Four pain points. Four concrete tools.

What our customers face every day — and how Treffnah addresses each one.

Pain point 01Language

Googling "plumber" when you don't speak a word of German.

14 million people in Germany speak another language at home. They don't know if "Wasserhahn" or "Armatur" is the right word. They dread making the call.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Search in Chinese, Turkish, Arabic, Polish, English.
Treffnah translates your description live into the workshop's language — and their reply back into yours. 30+ languages, in chat and on profiles.
Pain point 02Wait time

"Earliest availability: three months" — for a dripping pipe.

Median wait for a tradesperson appointment in Germany: 11 weeks. 76% of homeowners can't find anyone who actually shows up.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Filter by "Available today" instead of ad budget.
Every profile shows the next available slot — live from the workshop's calendar. Emergency mode: only tradespeople available within the next 24 hours.
Pain point 03Trust

"Stars" mean nothing when everyone has five.

Reviews are bought, manipulated, and increasingly indistinguishable.
Treffnah · how we solve it
We show facts: completion rate, punctuality, repeat bookings.
We display user-reported metrics: completion rate, punctuality, repeat jobs — unverified, reported by users.
Pain point 04Price

The verbal quote ends up 40% over budget.

38% of all tradesperson complaints in Germany involve extras not in the quote. It's the single most common dispute.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Fixed-price offers as standard. In writing, in the chat.
Workshops send structured fixed-price offers via Treffnah. What you see is what you pay — or the workshop has to request again.

Sektion 03 · Pain points → Solution

Four problems for providers. Four precise answers.

What tradespeople, cleaners, couriers and IT helpers deal with daily — and how Treffnah fixes it.

Pain point 01Commission

25–35% goes to the platform — out of your hourly rate.

Classic broker platforms charge per job or per lead. With Treffnah you pay a flat monthly subscription — first 3 jobs free, no risk, no credit card.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Flat monthly subscription. 0% commission. From €7.90/month.
You keep 100% of your hourly rate. Payment goes directly between you and your client — cash, bank transfer, card reader. Treffnah doesn't see it and doesn't need to.
Pain point 02Ownership

Leave the platform and your customers aren't yours.

Standard platforms keep contact data, history, and reviews. If you cancel, you vanish from your regular clients' view.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Your profile and history belong to you — and are exportable.
If you cancel, your profile stays visible on the free tier. Your job data can be exported as PDF and CSV at any time. We don't lock you in.
Pain point 03Language

The request came in Arabic — and went unanswered.

40% of requests in German cities now come in non-German. Workshops without translation help silently lose those jobs.
Treffnah · how we solve it
You see everything in German. Replies too.
An Arabic request appears to you in German. You type your reply in German — the customer sees it in Arabic. You lose no jobs without learning a single word.
Pain point 04Tooling

Four apps for the office. You never figured out three of them.

DATEV for taxes, Lexware for invoices, Outlook for appointments, WhatsApp for clients. Four logins, four subscriptions, four learning curves.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Calendar, quote, invoice, chat — in one app.
Generate GoBD-compliant invoices from a job. Fixed-price templates you set up once. A daily overview you understand before your first coffee.

Sektion 04 · Tools

Six tools
that make the tool.

No language barriers

30+ languages, locally in the app — without an internet connection. Turkish, Arabic, Ukrainian or Polish speakers can take and give jobs without knowing a word of German.

Sektion 07 · The market — and why Treffnah is different

Four patterns thathold back the local market.

Anyone offering or looking for local services today keeps hitting the same obstacles. Treffnah was built to solve each one concretely.

Pattern 1COMMISSION

Hand over 25–39% per job

Anyone taking jobs through classic broker platforms pays a share of their hourly rate — automatically, on every completed job.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Flat monthly subscription. 0% commission. What you earn is yours.
Pattern 2RANKING

Visibility is for sale

Paid placements are standard practice on established platforms — invest more, appear higher, regardless of quality or response time.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Four visible factors, equal weights for everyone. No paid spots, no surprises.
Pattern 3DATA OWNERSHIP

Leave the platform — lose everything

Job history, reviews, and client contacts belong to the operator on classic services. Cancel and you start from scratch.
Treffnah · how we solve it
Your history, your invoices, your data — on your device. Exportable any time. No lock-in.
Pattern 4LANGUAGE BARRIER

Requests in Arabic go unanswered

Translation and multilingual communication are missing from most common services. 40% of requests in German cities come in non-German.
Treffnah · how we solve it
30+ languages, live translated — requests appear automatically in your language.
Sektion 08 · Privacy
Treffnah stores no message content and no plain-text profiles on servers — all communication is stored on your device with end-to-end encryption (X25519 + XChaCha20-Poly1305). Servers in Frankfurt process only anonymised routing metadata. (Art. 25 GDPR — privacy by design)Privacy Promise · Treffnah

Sektion 10 · Frequently asked questions

Seven questions we get
asked all the time.


01How does Treffnah make money if it takes no commission?
We charge subscription fees — €0.99/month from customers (premium tier, optional) and €7.90–€29.90/month from workshops. Nothing else.
02What's included in the free "First Appearance" plan?
1 service category, 10 monthly replies, profile description up to 100 characters — permanently free, no credit card needed. Upgrade any time.
03What happens when I cancel?
Your profile stays visible on the free tier. Jobs, invoices, and history remain on your device and can be exported as PDF/CSV at any time.
04How does the translation work?
On your device — the original message and the translation appear side by side. 30+ languages.
05Who is liable if a job goes wrong?
Treffnah is a hosting service under Art. 2(1)(f) DSA. The service contract is concluded exclusively between you and the workshop. We recommend fixed-price offers as written evidence.
06Where is my data?
On your device, encrypted. Our servers in Frankfurt see an encrypted container — they can neither read the contents nor know who you are.
07Why no star ratings?
Because 5-star systems are easy to manipulate. Instead we show verifiable data: completion rate, punctuality, repeat bookings.
