Epiq Capital leads Pronto's $25 million fundraising; the company's valuation reaches $100 million

Home services startup Pronto has raised $25 million in a funding round led by Epiq Capital, with participation from existing investors Glade Brook Capital, General Catalyst and Bain Capital Ventures, founder and CEO Anjali Sardana said.

Following the investment, the eight-month-old startup is now valued at $100 million. The company has more than doubled its valuation since its previous funding round in August, when it raised $11 million at a $45 million valuation in a deal led by General Catalyst.

The new funding comes as demand for instant house-help services rises rapidly in urban India. Sardana said the capital will be used to hire and train more professionals, strengthen operations in current markets and expand to new cities and service categories over the next 12 to 18 months.

Pronto currently works with around 3,000 service professionals and operates in 10 cities. The platform recorded more than 350,000 orders in February, up from 150,000 in December, showing strong growth in demand. Sardana added that the company has burned about $8 million in the past year while expanding in the competitive market.

Founded in April 2025, Pronto connects households with trained workers for services such as cleaning, laundry, dishwashing and basic meal preparation. The company has also started a car-washing service in some areas of Gurugram and is testing additional services in Bengaluru, Pune and Hyderabad.

The startup was originally registered in Delaware in the United States but moved its base back to India in August last year. It also recently shifted its headquarters from Gurugram to Bengaluru to access a larger technology talent pool.

Pronto operates in a competitive market. Rival Snabbit recently raised $30 million in a round led by Bertelsmann India Investments and has raised about $54.5 million overall from investors including Lightspeed Venture Partners and Nexus Venture Partners.

Both companies also compete with Urban Company, which offers an on-demand house-help service called InstaHelp. Urban Company reported crossing 50,000 daily bookings in February, highlighting the fast growth of the home services market.
