About Temise

Temise connects people who need a job done with companies that do it — and does it in a way that is fair to both sides. You describe the work once. Up to three verified companies send you a real quote. You choose. Nobody pays to talk to you.

Why we exist

Anyone who has ever looked for a plumber, a mover or a painter online knows the pattern: you fill in a form, and then your phone does not stop. On most platforms, companies pay for every contact — whether the job happens or not. So they call, and call again, and the cost of those wasted calls ends up in the price you are quoted.

Temise was built on the opposite bet. Quoting is free. A company only pays a small fee when you actually pick it and it confirms the job. That single change fixes the incentive: we only earn when someone gets hired, so we have every reason to send companies real work instead of volume.

How it works

1. You describe the job once. Each service has its own short form — square metres, urgency, pickup and destination, whatever actually matters for that trade.
2. We invite the right companies. Matching happens automatically, by service and by area. For transport, we also match companies that already published a trip along your route.
3. Up to three quotes arrive. Only you see the prices. Each company sees only its own position — never a competitor's number.
4. You choose, and only then contacts are exchanged. The company confirms, and both sides receive a numbered Award Confirmation recording exactly what was agreed.

What makes us different

• Reviews that cannot be faked. A rating can only be left after a job that was awarded on Temise. No imported reviews, no anonymous stars.
• Portfolios that prove real work. A company can only publish photos for services it has actually won here — and visible branding is removed automatically before publication.
• A written record of every deal. The Award Confirmation is a dated, numbered snapshot of the agreed scope and price, available to both parties.
• Return Routes. Transport companies publish trips with free capacity, so your delivery can ride a journey that was already happening — cheaper for you, and one less empty van on the road.

Who is behind Temise

Temise is operated by CRIATOPO - PUBLICIDADE UNIPESSOAL LDA, a Portuguese company based in Odivelas (VAT PT513690689). We are starting in Portugal and opening across Europe.

Temise is an intermediation platform: the contract for the work is made between you and the company you choose. We are not a party to it and we do not carry out the work — but we do everything we can to make sure the companies you meet here are worth your time.
