OnSMS connects Houston businesses and homeowners with qualified local workers by text message — no apps, no agencies, and no markup on wages.
When you need an extra pair of hands for a job today — moving a couch, covering a shift, cleaning before a party — the options aren't great. Agencies are slow and expensive. Apps make everyone download something and create an account. And posting in a group means chasing replies and guessing at prices.
We think hiring help for a quick job should be as easy as sending a text.
That's how OnSMS works. You describe the job in a single message. We instantly notify qualified workers near you, and they reply with their price. Offers are sealed — workers bid blind, so you see honest market rates side by side and pick the one you want.
For workers, it's a way to turn free time into cash without downloading anything: they get a text, reply with their price, and keep 100% of what they earn. For businesses and homeowners, it's rated, same-day help with no agency fees and no markup. All in English and Spanish, because that's Houston.
Sealed offers and direct pay. No markup on wages and no hidden fees — OnSMS never touches what the worker earns.
First offers arrive in minutes and most jobs fill the same day. Nothing to install on either side.
Built for Houston and nearby — Katy, Cypress and beyond — fully in English and Spanish.
OnSMS is one of several finished apps from ZET8, by Optima BuildSolutions LLC — mobile-first, bilingual software a small business can use today. Meet the rest.
