The startup aims to move into new verticals such as cooks, childcare, and elder care across six Indian cities.

Quick services platform Snabbit, which connects urban homes with trained domestic staff, now clocks an annualized run rate (ARR) of about $11 million, roughly what it would make in a year at its current pace, a top executive said. The business, driven by frequent repeat bookings and festive season demand, signals how India's quick-service economy is rapidly expanding beyond groceries and food delivery.

CEO Aayush Agarwal told Mint that the startup plans to move into newer verticals such as cooks, childcare and elder care over the coming months as it chases growth. The company currently services Mumbai, Thane, Noida, Gurugram, Bengaluru and Pune.

The company is not yet profitable. Agarwal said its primary costs currently include training staff, software operations for the app and salaries. "It's a very lean model that we operate as we have no warehousing, no inventory, no third party logistics, no separate last mile, and no working capital cycles," Agarwal said. "Among consumer internet businesses, this is about as capital efficient as it gets."
