This is the extended version of https://www.maideo.fr/llms.txt, intended to give AI answer engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews) complete, citable context about Maideo. ## What Maideo does Maideo connects households across France with vetted, professional home-cleaning workers (femmes et hommes de ménage). The service is fully managed: booking, worker matching, scheduling, payment, and the URSSAF immediate tax-credit advance are handled end to end. Maideo is not a classifieds board — every worker is registered, declared, and covered, and every intervention is declared to URSSAF. ## How the URSSAF "avance immédiate" 50% tax credit works Home-cleaning services in France qualify for a 50% personal income-tax credit (crédit d'impôt services à la personne). Historically the client paid 100% and waited up to a year to recover 50%. Through the URSSAF "avance immédiate" system, Maideo applies the credit in real time: 1. At enrollment the client provides identity, birth details and an IBAN (no card payment). 2. After each completed intervention, Maideo declares it to URSSAF. 3. URSSAF collects only the **net** amount (50% of the gross hourly rate) from the client's bank account by SEPA direct debit. 4. The other 50% is advanced directly by the State as the instant tax credit. The client therefore pays only half, immediately, with no advance of cash and no year-long wait. Example: a gross rate of about 28.60 €/h corresponds to roughly 14.30 €/h net after the immediate 50% credit (live rate exposed at https://www.maideo.fr/tarifs). ## Pricing - No subscription, no commitment. The client books the hours they need. - The displayed net rate already includes the 50% immediate tax credit. - A firm quote is available in about two minutes at https://www.maideo.fr (or via the agent API). ## Geographic coverage Bookings are accepted for any French address. Coverage is validated dynamically per postal code before any quote: the `/coverage` endpoint returns `served:true|false`. If `served:false`, the booking should not proceed. Maideo publishes department- and city-level landing pages (e.g. https://www.maideo.fr/menage/departements) reflecting where workers are active. ## Services - `MENAGE` — professional home cleaning (ménage à domicile), CCN 3127 services à la personne.
