This is an interesting idea! I've found that the valley between customers and being able to work directly with a helper like you describe is too vast for meaningful interaction to work.
If the customer is paying enough, it can be worth it. But it would take a decent developer to be the helper in this situation, and that developer could likely make more money doing other work, so it makes it hard to grow this model in my mind. What are your thoughts on attracting talent to the provider side?
