Snabbit and InstaHelp Surpass 100,000 Daily Bookings Amid Profitability Challenges
Snabbit and Urban Company's InstaHelp have each surpassed 100,000 daily bookings, reflecting strong consumer demand for instant home services. These platforms connect customers with trained professionals for routine household tasks, offering convenience similar to quick commerce. However, experts note profitability challenges as expansion into lower-density areas may require significantly higher prices due to reduced worker utilization. Companies are focusing on dense neighborhoods and optimizing job assignments to maintain efficiency while competing for market leadership amid growing venture capital investment.
