Pronto set for $200M valuation as investor Lachy Groom backs fast-growing startup

India-based startup Pronto is close to raising fresh funding that could value the company at around $200 million.

The new round is expected to bring in about $20 million and is likely to be led by tech investor Lachy Groom. If completed, this will double Pronto’s valuation within weeks, as the company was valued at $100 million in its previous funding round earlier this year, led by Epiq Capital.

Pronto has been growing quickly. Last month alone, the company completed around 500,000 orders. It is now handling about 24,000 to 25,000 daily bookings, compared to 18,000 in March and just 1,000 daily orders last year.

Founded in 2025, Pronto connects households with on-demand domestic help for services like cleaning and daily chores. The platform focuses on quick service through a managed network of workers.

The startup has expanded rapidly across India. It is now operating in 10 cities, including Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, and Mumbai, and has grown from just a few locations to more than 150 micromarkets. However, a large portion of its business still comes from the National Capital Region, which accounts for about half of its total bookings.

Pronto currently has over 4,500 active workers on its platform, and nearly all of them are women. The company says demand is still higher than the number of workers available, with bookings increasing by about 20% every week.

Before this round, Pronto had raised around $40 million from investors such as Glade Brook Capital, General Catalyst, and Bain Capital Ventures.

Pronto and Lachy Groom have not yet made any official statement about the deal.
