Abstract
Urban populations are increasingly depend on digital platforms for essential services such as home chores, repairs and personal wellness. Yet, many current service platforms are often fragmented, lack live tracking and provide meager safety mechanisms, which decreases user trust and overall effectiveness. This research presents a Smart Urban Service Locator, a consolidated digital aggregator built to streamline service discovery while assuring real-time interaction and bolsters protection. The proposed system pairs a Flutter cross platform application with a Firebase serverless backend to enable real-time booking, tracking and multi-vendor management. A reactive state management approach ensures synchronized updates across every user and an integrated SOS module enables emergency alerts with live location sharing. Experimental outcomes show that the system sustains low latency and high reliability even under increased user load. The results suggest that the integration of real-time cloud infrastructure with safety-focused design principles can generate significant enhancements.
