Taskrabbit

Overview

Founded in 2008 by Leah Busque, TaskRabbit is an online marketplace that connects customers with independent freelance workers, called "Taskers," for everyday tasks. The platform began as an SMS-based service named RunMyErrand in Boston, later reinventing itself as TaskRabbit with a website and a mobile app.

TaskRabbit operates across thousands of cities in nine countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and France. The platform enables users to outsource household and errand-based services such as cleaning, furniture assembly, handyman assistance, and moving help. Customers can book tasks by bidding or immediate selection, and TaskRabbit fosters a community-oriented approach focused on serving individual consumers and families, while providing flexible income opportunities for Taskers.
