Gurgaon’s home service scene is buzzing with excitement as Pronto, a Delhi NCR-based startup, secures $2 million (around ₹17.1 crore) in seed funding. The investment comes just weeks after Pronto’s official launch in April 2025, setting the stage for a new era of instant home services.
Instant House Help: Changing How Gurgaon Gets Things Done
Pronto is making waves by promising on-demand house help at your doorstep in just 10 minutes. Through the Pronto app, users can book a variety of essential services-sweeping, mopping, utensil washing, kitchen and bathroom cleaning, laundry, and even vegetable chopping. With options for instant, scheduled, or recurring bookings, Pronto is designed for every kind of household.
Aggressive Growth Plans in Gurgaon
With fresh funding in hand, Pronto is ready to expand. The company plans to open 10 new hubs across Gurgaon in the next 90 days. After recently launching its second hub in Galleria Market, Pronto is also on a hiring spree, aiming to add 700 trained professionals and 50 new team members in operations and engineering.
Solving a Big Problem for Urban India
Finding reliable house help in India can be a struggle, even as groceries and food now arrive within minutes. Pronto’s goal is to bridge this gap by offering verified, uniformed professionals, available 24/7 with a 10-minute promise. Founder Anjali Sardana started Pronto after facing her own challenges finding dependable help, especially for elderly family members.
Pronto’s model also supports workers, offering guaranteed hours and income stability. Many domestic workers in India are underemployed, working just a few hours a day with no job security. Pronto is changing that by providing steady work and better earnings.
What Makes Pronto Unique
- Speed: House help at your door in 10 minutes, anytime.
- Reliability: Professionally trained, verified, and uniformed staff.
- Worker Welfare: Guaranteed hours and safer work environments.
- Consistency: Option to book the same professional for daily needs.
- Scale: Over 500 homes cleaned and 1,000+ hours saved for users already.
Quick Commerce Expands Beyond Groceries
Pronto is part of a new wave in India’s quick commerce sector. While instant grocery and food delivery have become the norm, Pronto is bringing that same convenience to home services-a first for Indian cities.
Looking Ahead: Challenges and Opportunities
The 10-minute house help model is new and comes with challenges in logistics, training, and quality control. Rapid expansion means Pronto must keep improving its technology and operations. But the team is confident, focusing on hiring and innovation to meet growing demand.
The Future of House Help in Gurgaon
Pronto’s mission is to organise and uplift India’s massive, informal domestic labour market. With its focus on convenience, reliability, and worker dignity, Pronto is set to become the trusted choice for instant house help in Gurgaon and beyond.
