Ask IH: Would you use this platform?

Hi Guys,
As a early stage founder, I find myself getting dragged into things which doesn't help grow my business like:

  1. getting the daily supplies (milk, biscuits, cleaning materials, office supplies etc.),
  2. doing the dishes when the helper has taken off
  3. when on-boarding a new hire getting all the paper work done, getting them a laptop, etc.
  4. the leaking tap never gets fixed

Wouldn't it be awesome to have a platform where we can:

  1. select the frequency and time of delivery and our supplies just get there on time, every-time.
  2. we select the frequency and time of cleaning and our office is cleaned, all the time.
  3. We just add a few details like basic detail of the new hire, what laptop they get and software they get access to, and the whole on-boarding just happens.
  4. Hire technicians or plumbers on demand.

Would you want to use this platform?

I'm currently based in India and see no alternative to this. After my research I did find Managed by Q in US.

Co-working space are a competitor, but my experience with them has been really uncomfortable - its always noisy and there are new faces all the time.

I would love to your feedback.

    We also run a small office and have the following solutions -

    1. For supplies our Junior most employee does this , its twice a month. But i do see an opportunity for something like snacknation in India for a healthier option.

    2. We have a Cleaner does cleaning everyday , charges INR 1000/mon , its not exp.

    3. HR software for this , Onboarding checklist and Amazon.in for hardware .

    4. Urban Clap

    For bigger offices , they usually have full time staff which do this , any specific head count you are looking at ?
