Pronto, an Indian instant house-help startup, is nearing a funding round led by tech investor Lachy Groom, valuing the company at about $200 million, according to TechCrunch. The deal aims to secure around $20 million in new capital, a significant increase from its $100 million valuation during a Series B round led by Epiq Capital in early March, when it raised $25 million, rapidly doubling its valuation, sources said.
Based in Bengaluru, Pronto completed approximately 500,000 orders last month and is processing about 24,000-25,000 orders daily, up from 18,000 in March and around 1,000 the previous year.
Founded in 2025, Pronto links households with on-demand domestic help for services like cleaning, offering fast turnaround times through a managed worker network.
In March, Pronto founder Anjali Sardana informed TechCrunch the company had grown from one city to 10, including Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, and Mumbai, and from five to over 150 micromarkets. Nevertheless, most activities remain focused in a few markets, with the National Capital Region representing about half of total bookings.
The startup has over 4,500 active professionals on its platform, with approximately 99% being women, Sardana said last month, noting that demand outpaces the onboarding of new workers as bookings rise about 20% weekly.
Prior to this funding, Pronto had raised around $40 million. Investors include Epiq Capital, Glade Brook Capital, General Catalyst, and Bain Capital Ventures.
Pronto and Groom did not respond to requests for comment.
