The mission

Up&Go is a worker-owned cooperative of house cleaners that began in New York City in 2018. It has since expanded to Philadelphia, and is now being trialed in Detroit.

What we built

The Up&Go online platform, which makes their business possible, was designed collaboratively by the workers and CoLab, and built by CoLab. We continue to support them by adding new functionality as their business expands.
