TrustAdda helps hostel owners run trust-based self-service stores, keep essentials in stock, handle refill requests and hear from residents — all from one simple dashboard on web and Android.
Built for community living, where residents are trusted and owners need a clear view of what's running low.
Residents pick items and pay by UPI QR, or choose “trust now, pay later”.
Track laundry, personal care, snacks, beverages, medicine and more, with low-stock flags.
Residents flag an empty stand or machine; staff see it as a pending task until it's done.
Run sachet stands, vending machines and digital kirana counters across floors or buildings.
Collect suggestions, issues and ideas so maintenance problems surface early.
One codebase, mobile first. Install the Android app or use it in any browser.
