ABOUT

Built so the right partner is one click away — not three months of cold emails.

Vendor in My Pocket started inside Hidden Gems II Incorporated (ERMA-compliant company), after watching principals, after-school leaders, and CBO directors waste entire semesters trying to vet a chess coach, a teen mental-health partner, or a culturally-responsive STEM provider. The information existed — it just lived in dozens of inboxes, group chats, and PDFs.

We built a curated, NY-first marketplace so the leaders running programs for young people can find qualified partners in minutes, and so good providers stop getting buried by louder ones.

Youth-first

Every decision starts with the kids these programs serve.

Profiled, not viral

Providers submit insurance, background, and DOE-vendor info before going live.

Local, then everywhere

Starting in New York. Other regions coming as we earn trust.
