Ask Fo to hire someone for a local task

Fo is built to coordinate everyday to-dos, and it can work through a RentAHuman task page and the request form for you. Ask it to get your approval before acting; you sign in and approve the payment. RentAHuman then recruits people — nobody is booked until an applicant is accepted. There is no RentAHuman integration with Fo.

Brief for Fo by Wajo
Fo by Wajo, please help me hire a person for a local task through RentAHuman.ai.

Task: [what needs doing — e.g. assemble one IKEA wardrobe and two bookshelves]
Where: [city or neighbourhood — share the exact address only after someone is accepted]
When: [date and time window]
Budget: [total in USD]
Done means: [how I will know it is finished]
Evidence: [e.g. photos of the finished work]

Steps:
1. Open the matching page: https://rentahuman.ai/services/handyman, /services/cleaning, /services/errands or /services/line-standing.
2. Use “Start a request” with the task, city and budget.
3. If RentAHuman asks me to sign in, stop and let me do it. Never ask for my password or codes.
4. Put the date window, “done means” and evidence into the task description. Keep my address out of the public text.
5. Before any payment (wallet funding or Stripe Checkout), show me the total and wait for my yes.
6. Send me the task link and its status. Do not call it booked — it is a request until someone is accepted.
7. Do not accept applicants manually or release payment without asking me.

What Wajo says Fo can do

  • Wajo says Fo calls, emails and coordinates with people to get everyday to-dos done, with human help when a task needs it. Source
  • Wajo says Fo checks out with a single-use card for each purchase. Source
  • Wajo says its agents can run in draft-only mode, ask for approval before acting, or handle defined work independently. Source
  • Wajo lists “MCP access” on its Pro plan; Fo Mini is free with a daily task limit. Source

Where you step in

Set Fo to ask for approval before acting (or draft-only) for this task, so it stops before RentAHuman funding or Stripe Checkout.

Plugins, connectors and MCP

Wajo lists MCP access on its Pro plan but does not document which MCP servers Fo can connect to. We have not tested Fo with the RentAHuman MCP server; if your plan supports adding one, it is documented on our For Agents page. Otherwise use the browser steps below.

RentAHuman MCP server setup

The steps Fo follows in the browser

  1. 1

    Open the matching task page

    Start from rentahuman.ai/services/handyman, /services/cleaning, /services/errands or /services/line-standing. Each page states what fits, what doesn’t, and how a request works.

  2. 2

    Fill in “Start a request”

    Enter the task, the city and the budget, then continue. This only opens the task form with those details; nothing is posted yet.

  3. 3

    Hand sign-in to the person

    RentAHuman asks for an account to post a task. The person signs in themselves; the assistant never asks for their password or a one-time code.

  4. 4

    Complete the task details

    Pick the city from the list, paste the brief into the description with the date window, the definition of done and the photo evidence wanted. Keep the exact address and door codes out of the public text.

  5. 5

    Stop for payment approval

    Submitting the form opens a funding review with the total. Confirming it posts the task and pays from the wallet or through Stripe Checkout, so show the person the total and wait for an explicit yes first.

  6. 6

    Report the real status

    Share the task link and its status — Pending funding until the deposit confirms, then Open while recruiting. Do not describe it as booked or confirmed.

  7. 7

    Leave hiring and payment decisions to the person

    Auto-review may accept qualified applicants. Ask before accepting anyone manually, and never release payment without the person’s explicit instruction after they approve the work.

Line standing is different. Line standing in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto or Vancouver books on /services/line-standing without an account: get the quote, review the canonical address it returns, and stop before Stripe Checkout for approval. Paying funds recruitment; a worker still has to confirm, and the payment is refunded if nobody confirms before the start.
