What if AI could tell you the perfect tip amount for any service, anywhere?

Controversial take: We have NO IDEA what fair tipping looks like in 2026.

Should you tip your Uber driver €2 or €5?

Your dog walker €10 or €20 per month?

The cleaner who spent 4 hours in your apartment?

Everyone guesses. Nobody knows.

Here's what we're building:

Tink.you started as a frictionless tipping platform (30-second handle, WhatsApp/Signal/QR, no app for tippers, 28 languages). But as workers joined, we realized something:

We're accumulating data on tipping patterns across industries, locations, and service types.

Soon, our AI will be able to answer: "How much should I tip?" for:

📦 Amazon delivery drivers in London

🐕 Dog walkers in Brooklyn

🧹 House cleaners in Paris

🚗 Valet parkers in Dubai

...and 140+ other gig jobs

The network effect:

More workers → More data → Smarter AI → Better recommendations → More tippers → More workers

This has never been done before. And it only works if workers register first and use the platform.

Questions for the PH community:

→ Would you use AI-powered tipping recommendations? Why or why not?

→ What data points should the AI consider? (location, service quality, weather, distance?)

→ Is tipping cultural? Should recommendations vary by country?

→ What's your go-to tipping rule of thumb today?

We're early. We want your input to shape this intelligence layer for the gig economy.
