You need the right one.By Monday.

IThe search

Every founder has lost a month to this.

It starts with one line in a group chat: Anyone know a good broker for a retail space in Indiranagar? By evening you have a dozen numbers, half of them people pitching themselves.

You take calls. You walk through sites that miss the brief. You chase references who never write back. It's the same story whether you need a broker, a developer, a CA or the right software.

  1. Week 1

    Twelve numbers. Six of them are people pitching themselves.

  2. Week 2

    Nine calls. Four site visits that miss the brief.

  3. Week 3

    Someone who looked right on paper.

  4. Week 6

    Back in the group chat, starting over.

The only review that counts
“I hired them, and they delivered.”

Ask founders how they found their best people and you hear the same answer. Another founder had already worked with them. We built a concierge on that one sentence.

IIThe rule

Vouched by founders, or gone.

Earned

Proven on real work

Every person or product we recommend has been used by a founder and earned positive feedback.

Unbought

No paid spots

No one can pay to appear on your shortlist, whether it's a person, a product or a place. When you choose a provider through us, they pay us a referral fee for introducing you, the way they would for any customer they win. Full-time hires are the exception: candidates never pay us. It's paid only after you've chosen them and the work has started, and it never decides who we recommend.

Renewed

Rated every time

After every engagement, you rate it. When founders stop vouching, it comes off the list.

IIIThe new ending

Back to Tuesday.
This time, it ends well.

  1. Tonight

    You tell us what you need

    Two lines are enough. Our concierge asks a few sharp questions until the brief is right.

  2. Days later

    A shortlist arrives

    Each name comes with the founders who vouch for them and a plain reason why they fit.

  3. Monday

    You pick one and start

    No more group chats. If we can't find a match worth vouching for, we'll tell you straight.

How we get paid

You never pay to ask. The provider pays us for introducing you.

When you choose a provider through us, whether it's a developer, a software company or a broker, that provider pays us a referral fee for bringing you to them. The fee comes out of the provider's own selling price: money they would otherwise spend on ads, sales partners and commissions to win a customer. There is no markup. You pay the provider their usual price, and we add nothing on top.

The one exception is a full-time hire. There, as is standard in recruitment, you pay our flat placement fee and the person you hire pays nothing.

For founders only

We verify every founder before we start. Each ask gets a concierge's full attention: a proper brief, a shortlist checked by hand, and a reason behind every name. Checking your LinkedIn makes sure that time goes to founders who are ready to act.

Placing an ask No fee

No retainer and no charge to ask, whatever you need.

Hourly, project or bounty work Nothing from you

The freelancer or agency pays our referral fee out of their own rate, as they would for any client referral. You pay their usual rate.

Software, spaces and services Nothing from you

The vendor, broker or firm pays our referral fee out of their selling price. You pay their usual price.

A full-time hire Flat 4%

Of the hire's annual CTC, paid by you only when the hire is made. The person you hire pays nothing.
