Tama Laundry's live website, the 'Where we go' section: 'Pickup and delivery across O‘ahu', five service areas, a Check my address button, and a glowing map of O‘ahu with the zones Waikiki, EAST Honolulu, Honolulu/Town, Kailua/Kaneohe and Waipahu - Nuuanu.
A customer's account on book.tamalaundry.com: 'Your Laundry', a Schedule a Pickup button, and plan cards comparing Pay as you go at $2.99 per pound with the Tama Pass at $29 a month.
Dispatch board The Send to courier sheet on Tama Laundry's dispatch board: Uber quote $7.99, customer pays $7.99, you cover $0, with Keep it on my routes and Book courier buttons.

Bring your own Uber Direct, and keep the reins.

Vans full, or no vans yet? Send any pickup or delivery to an Uber courier from the dispatch board. You connect your own Uber Direct account and Uber bills it for each trip. Tama OS takes no cut and adds no markup.

This is one courier trip on my dispatch board. When Tama Laundry ran on Cents, I had no control once a driver was out. So every control on this row answers something that went wrong on my routes.

A courier trip on Tama Laundry's dispatch board: status 'Finding a courier', a map of Honolulu, buttons for Call courier, Edit instructions, Cancel and rebook, Hand to my driver and Cancel, the cost line (Uber charged $7.99, customer pays $7.99, you cover $0) and a status timeline.

  • Finding a courier

    Uber’s status, live on my board. On Cents I had to pretend to be the customer just to see where the driver was.

  • Edit instructions

    “Side door, ring the bell.” Notes change. I can edit pickup and drop-off instructions and times while the trip is live, within what Uber allows.

  • Cancel & rebook

    Uber won’t let anyone change a live trip’s address. One tap cancels and rebooks to the new one, free before a courier accepts.

  • Hand to my driver

    A lot of times the Cents driver just wouldn’t move to go pick up. Now the watchdog flags it, and this puts the stop back on my own route.

  • You cover $0

    Uber bills my own Uber account. Tama OS takes nothing. How much the customer pays is my setting.

The Cents parts are Brian’s own experience running Tama Laundry on it, not a review of Cents today. Written by Tama OS LLC, a vendor that competes with Cents.

  • Drivers, couriers, or both

    Run a location courier-only, with no drivers at all. Or go hybrid: your drivers first, couriers after a set time, on certain days or zones, or when routes are full.

  • You decide who pays

    Customer pays Uber’s price, you cover a set amount or a percent with a cap, a flat delivery price, or free for members or over an order total.

  • Your store stays private

    Customers get your branded tracking page, never Uber’s, and never your store’s location. They can still message the courier: “I’m at the side gate.”

Also built in: a price-jump guard that holds a trip for your OK, and a courier is never sent to deliver an unpaid order. Setup is five guided steps, in Uber’s test mode first. Uber Direct today, where Uber offers it. Couriers are in early access: we’re turning them on account by account.

Software born on the route, not in a pitch deck.

Tama Laundry started with a phone, a car and a lot of driveways. The software to run it didn’t exist at a fair price, so it was built order by order, between pickups.

Can I really start if I don’t own a laundromat?

Yes. Tama OS supports operators who wash orders themselves or partner with an existing laundromat for production. Start with a phone and a car, then add drivers, couriers, production capacity and locations as demand grows.

I already run a laundromat. What does Tama OS add?

A delivery business on top of your store: online booking, routes, a driver app, customer tracking, memberships, commercial invoicing, AI staff, and your own Uber Direct couriers when you don’t want to hire drivers. The founder migrates the first ten founding operators for free.

Can I use Uber couriers instead of hiring drivers?

Yes. Connect your own Uber Direct account in Settings → Couriers and choose own drivers, courier only, or hybrid. Uber bills your account directly for each trip. Tama OS takes no cut and adds no markup. Uber Direct is supported today, where Uber offers it.

Can I change the address after a courier is booked?

Uber doesn’t let anyone change the drop-off address of a live trip. Tama OS makes it one tap: Cancel & rebook to the new address, free before a courier accepts. Pickup and drop-off instructions and times can be edited live, within what Uber allows at each stage.

Do my customers get an app?

Yes. Every plan includes your booking site and a customer web app that works on any phone. Your own branded app in the App Store and Google Play is an add-on, included on Multi-store.

Do you take a percentage of my sales?

No. Tama OS is a flat monthly price — $199 for one van, $299 for up to three, $449 for unlimited vans and locations — with every feature in every plan. The first 60 days are free and it’s month-to-month after that. The only per-order cost is Stripe’s standard card fee, passed through at cost with no markup.

Will Tama OS work with my current wash partner or drivers?

Yes. Assign routes to your own drivers, send overflow to your Uber Direct account, coordinate production with a partner, and keep order, payment and customer data in one place.

How hard is switching from another platform?

The founder migrates the first ten founding operators for free; after that, migration is $499 one-time. The plan covers customer data, services, pricing, zones and team access before you cut over.

Plan the work behind every order.
