Mumbai-based Snabbit, a young but fast-growing startup known for zippy home help at the press of a button, has landed $19 million in fresh funding. The round was led by Lightspeed, with continued support from Elevation Capital and Nexus Venture Partners, both of whom backed Snabbit earlier.
This new injection of capital comes on the heels of a $5.5 million Series A just a few months ago. With barely a year under its belt, Snabbit is clearly picking up steam. The company now plans to leap from operating in a few Mumbai and Bengaluru neighborhoods to over 200 hyperlocal zones in the next nine months — an ambitious sprint that reflects the scale of its ambition.

The brain behind Snabbit is Aayush Agarwal, who once served as chief of staff at Zepto. He started Snabbit in 2024 after noticing a gaping hole in how everyday home chores are handled in urban India. Whether it’s a messy kitchen, laundry pile, or unexpected cleanup, Snabbit lets users summon trained help — fast. Most bookings are fulfilled within 10 to 15 minutes, thanks to the startup’s densely packed service zones and a tightly controlled operations model.
Unlike traditional platforms that simply connect users to freelancers, Snabbit runs a full-stack setup. It hires and trains workers directly, verifies their identities in partnership with Idfy, and handles all backend logistics. Instead of charging per task, the company bills by the hour — a move intended to bring fairness and transparency for both customers and staff.
Currently active in areas like Powai, Thane, Marol, Bellandur, and Sarjapura, Snabbit’s footprint is still small — but not for long, if Agarwal has his way. “There’s been massive innovation in ride-sharing and online shopping,” he said in a conversation with The Economic Times. “But home services have stayed stuck in the past. We’re trying to change that — with trust, quality, and reliability baked in from the ground up.”
