With the rise of the quick delivery and convenience market, several entrepreneurs are trying their hand in the same industry with different approaches. 

For Aayush Agarwal, the direction was to offer on-demand home services like cleaning, dishwashing, and laundry. 

He founded Snabbit in February 2024 as a Mumbai-based quick service application that offers home services within just 15 minutes.

BACKGROUND 

According to his LinkedIn profile, Aayush Agarwal completed his PGDM degree in banking, corporate finance, and law from the Institute of Management Technology in Ghaziabad. 

He then went on to clear Level 2 of the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) program from the CFA Institute.

Right after that, he began his career as a Junior Analyst at Societe Generale Corporate and Investment Banking. Next, he managed finance and business strategy at White Owl. 

Eventually, in 2022, he joined Zepto as a Senior Manager of Finance and quickly rose to the ranks of Associate Director, and finally Vice President - Chief of Staff. 

Gaining experience in the quick commerce industry and understanding its intricacies must've proved helpful for Aayush. 

In 2024, he started his own startup called Snabbit. 

The mission is to simplify daily lives of urban families and provide respectable, working opportunities for people.

INDIA'S FIRST QUICK SERVICE APP

Snabbit claims to be the country's first quick service app to be offering on-demand home services.

With just one booking, customers can get many tasks fulfilled. These include:

  1. General cleaning

  2. Dishwashing

  3. Laundry

  4. Fan cleaning

  5. Kitchen prep

  6. Bathroom cleaning

  7. Window cleaning

  8. Kitchen cleaning

The process to book a Snabbit expert who acts as a househelp is fairly simple. 

According to the startup's website, the first step is either booking a Snabbit expert immediately or choosing a preferred, later time. 

Next, customers have to select the time and duration for which they need an expert. The expert arrives on time. Customers receive an OTP, which they share with the Snabbit expert to start the service. 

Aayush Agarwal’s Snabbit operates with a hyperlocal network in residential areas. It provides trained and trusted experts that arrive on the customer's preferred time and offer unparalleled quality and speed.
