ProntoAn Indian instant house help startup is finalizing a funding round led by tech investor Lachy Groom that will value the fast-growing company at around $200 million, TechCrunch has learned.
The deal is expected to bring in about $20 million in fresh capital and would be a sharp jump from the $100 million valuation at which the company raised $25 million in a Series B round led by Epic Capital in early March, doubling its value in a few weeks, two people familiar with the matter said.
Bengaluru-based Pronto completed around 500,000 orders last month and currently handles around 24,000-25,000 orders per day, up from around 18,000 daily bookings in March and around 1,000 orders last year.
Founded in 2025, Pronto connects households with domestic help for services like cleaning and chores, promising quick turnaround times through an organized network of workers.
In March, Pronto founder Anjali Sardana told TechCrunch that the startup had expanded from one city to 10 — including Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, and Mumbai — and from five to more than 150 micromarkets. However, most of its activity is concentrated in a handful of markets, with the National Capital Region accounting for about half of total bookings.
Sardana said last month that the startup has more than 4,500 active professionals on its platform, about 99% of whom are women, adding that demand continued to go beyond the onboarding of new workers as bookings grew by about 20% during the week.
Prior to this funding, Pronto had raised about $40 million in total. Its investors include Epiq Capital, Glade Brook Capital, General Catalyst and Bain Capital Ventures.
