MaidEasy is a new Malaysian startup that connects people to local cleaning service providers. Users key in the date, time and address, and MaidEasy takes care of the rest. Cleaning services on MaidEasy all come in at a rate of about US$5.5 per hour, but minimum sessions of four hours apply. To incorporate a ratings system, the startup will contact customers after the cleaning to get feedback. Customers will not leave reviews per se. Same-day service is not available at present, and typically users will have to book 72 hours ahead of time.
