Abstract

The high rate of unemployment in Ecuador requires new opportunities to create job offers. We have observed the business model of Uber and Airbnb, there is still many opportunities to create the sharing economy. In this document, we present a clear and innovative architecture to build a business including sharing economy. A system for applying our proposed architecture was developed. Our system monitors and channels the activities of the participants, both the provider of the service and the users of the service. Finally, we evaluate our proposal through a survey aimed to providers and users.
