Maid Service For The Masses? YC-Backed Pathjoy Offers Affordable Housecleaning With Easy Web Booking
Adora Cheung, co-founder and CEO of Pathjoy, said her goal is to make maid service "ubiquitous" a basic service for a broad audience, rather than a luxury for the rich.To make that happen, Cheung and her brother/co-founder Albert are offering four main twists on the traditional cleaning service model. First, she said Pathjoy is more affordable, charging only $20 an hour, compared to the $40 charged by most other cleaning services. (The default apartment cleaning on Pathjoy takes 2.5 hours, so it would cost $50.) Second, it's more convenient, because you can book, cancel, and reschedule cleanings from the Pathjoy website, rather than having to call. Third, Pathjoy performs a background check on every cleaner, then bonds, insures, and trains them, so you've some assurances of high-quality service.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/6YmygRcAnN0/
