Rickshaw
Same day local delivery, via API. Currently operating in SF.
Rickshaw is a local delivery platform that partners with courier companies and delivers several goods, including laundry, gifts, office snacks, and meal subscriptions. It uses algorithms and mobile apps to dispatch, route, and track customer locations. The service is available from Monday to Friday from 7.00 a.m. to 10.00 p.m.
Rickshaw was launched by Divya Bhat and Gautam Jayaraman.
Former Founders
Gautam Jayaraman
I co-founded Greenwork (S21), which is at the intersection of climate and construction.
In the recent past I've worked on marketplaces with SMBs and local workers (DoorDash, Rickshaw), and experimented with how the marketplace evolves when software/robotics are added in.
I also co-founded Rickshaw (W14) and Jamglue (S06).
Fun fact: since 2006, I've worked at five YC-backed companies, and zero non-YC-backed companies.
