The Experience

How you reach us.
How we reach you.

The hospitality you used to need full-time staff for — booked in three taps. The pro arrives in a sealed uniform, leaves a handwritten note, and is gone before dinner ends. Hotel-grade discipline at the door of the household that doesn't keep a butler — and shouldn't need to.

The Book · Three Channels

01App

Real-time booking, live tracking, in-app chat. The default rail.

02WhatsApp

One thread per booking. Voice-note works. Founders' direct line if you ask twice.

03Call Centre

24/7 named human concierge. Same hosts, repeat customers, real escalations.

The Arrival · The Details You Notice

Sealed Byde uniform

Freshly pressed, every visit. Sanitised between jobs.

Shoe covers, every visit

Monsoon or otherwise. Disposed after.

Cold water bottle on arrival

Offered when your chauffeur reaches the building. Small thing. Big tell.

Sealed kit, Byde-issued

Knife rolls, cleaning supplies, bar tools — all ours, sanitised between jobs. Nothing borrowed from your home.

Photographic handover

Before/after for cleaning. Plating shots from chefs. You see the work.

Handwritten note, every booking

Old-world hospitality is still hospitality.

Hotels aren't a category. They're a feeling. We rebuild that feeling, one booking at a time.

The Quiet Revolution

Replace your full-time staff.
Use them only when it matters.

Three permanent roles every Indian household runs on. Three problems Byde finally solves on demand — without the salary, the politics, or the loyalty tax.

"India has 12 million households with a daily home cook. Almost none of them are happy with the arrangement — and there is no on-demand alternative."

The full-time cook problem — finally solved.

Hard to hire, harder to keep, almost always trapped in a single cuisine. Our home cooks are trained at the Byde Academy across four global cuisines — book one for a meal, a week, or a month.

Your personal shopper
finds anything.

Not an errand runner. A concierge with access to the city's best — brands, restaurants, markets, and products that aren't on any delivery platform. Tell us what you want. We source it, approve it with you on video call, and deliver it same day.

The Byde Directory
6,000+ indexed vendors across the city, growing weekly. The shop relationships full-time staff used to keep — open to your household, on demand.

Top Brands & Luxury Stores

Zara to Gucci. Your shopper visits the store, video calls you from the aisle, picks the right size and style. Try-before-you-buy available.

Restaurants Not on Delivery

That incredible neighbourhood biryani place with no Swiggy. That new Japanese cafe. The bakery everyone's talking about. We go, we queue, we bring it to you.

Any Market, Any Vendor

Crawford Market seafood at 6am. Fresh flowers from Dadar. Organic vegetables from the farmer's market. Exotic spices from Lalbaug. We know every vendor.

Hard-to-Find Products

Japanese whisky. Korean skincare. Imported cheese. Specific supplements. Vintage wine. If it exists in the city, we'll find it.

Gift Curation & Wrapping

Last-minute birthday? Anniversary? Festival? Tell us the person, the occasion, the budget — we curate, wrap, and deliver a thoughtful gift.

New Openings & Pop-ups

Your shopper scouts new restaurant openings, pop-up sales, limited drops, art exhibitions, and seasonal markets before anyone else knows about them.

Grocery & Pantry Runs

Not just any groceries — curated. The best quality produce, artisanal bread, specific brands, organic options. Your shopper learns your preferences.

Literally Anything

Need someone to return a package? Pick up your dry cleaning? Find a specific book? Get your watch repaired? Your shopper handles it all.

Personal Shopping

Beyond shopping — your personal concierge.

Once you have someone who can go anywhere in the city for you, why stop at shopping? Your Byde shopper handles everything.

Pharmacy & Medicine
Prescription pickups, specific OTC brands, medical supplies
Returns & Exchanges
Don't queue at the store — your shopper handles the return
Document Runs
Courier, notary, post office, government offices — collected and delivered
Queue & Wait
New restaurant launch? Limited drop? They queue. You don't
Pet Supplies
Specific pet food, vet prescriptions, toys — from the exact store you trust
Key Handoffs
Give keys to the plumber, collect from the landlord, manage access
Laundry & Dry Cleaning
Picked up, dropped off, collected — from your preferred cleaners
Flowers & Fresh
Hand-picked from the market at 5am. Not packaged. Actually fresh
Device Repairs
Phone screen cracked? Watch stopped? We take it, get it fixed, bring it back
Event Tickets
Concerts, shows, exhibitions — sourced, picked up, or queued for
Anything. Really.
If it involves going somewhere in the city and bringing something back — that's us
The Byde Method

The seven steps between
a stranger and the person
we send to your home.

Anyone can hire labour. We engineer trust. Every Byde professional moves through a deliberate seven-stage pipeline before their first booking — and stays inside it for as long as they wear our uniform.

Step one

Source from hotels.

We don't recruit from gig pools. Our pros come from ITC, Taj, Oberoi, Marriott, JW, Four Seasons — people already trained in five-star hospitality, looking for flexibility and dignified earnings.

73% from 5-star backgrounds
Step two

Verify, deeply.

Government ID, police clearance, address verification, two reference checks from prior employers, and a personal interview at our office. No paperwork shortcuts. No exceptions.

42% pass the screen
Step three

The Byde Academy.

Two weeks at our training centre: hospitality protocols, home etiquette, conversation calibration, allergen handling, hygiene standards, and the Byde way of greeting, working, and leaving a home.

68 hours, every pro
Step four

Specialty mastery.

Then the craft. Chefs cook for our master chef panel. Drivers do night-route trials. Cleaners pass a five-room inspection. Bartenders mix blind. Pros only ship when their craft does.

Service-specific certification
Step five

Kit, uniform, kit.

Every pro arrives in a sealed Byde uniform with a Byde-issued kit — knife rolls, cleaning supplies, brush sets, bar tools. Nothing borrowed. Nothing improvised. Nothing of yours used unless you offer.

Sanitised between every job
Step six

Briefed, always.

Thirty minutes before arrival, your pro receives a private brief: your address notes, dietary preferences, household members, allergies, prior booking history, and anything you've ever told us. They know you before they knock.

Every pro, every booking
Step seven

Rated. Coached. Removed.

Every job is rated. Pros below 4.5 stars enter retraining within 7 days. Below 4.2, they leave the platform. Quality isn't a promise — it's a queue we manage every single morning.

Reviewed weekly by founders
Always

Founder oversight,
by name.

Every escalation lands on Rishi or Agnelo. Not a ticketing queue. Not a bot. Real names, direct lines, same hour. That's the bar.

rishi@byde.it · +91 98190 90300

The detail you'll
actually notice.

Shoe covers, every visit

No exceptions, even in monsoon. Disposed after.

Photographic handover

Before/after photos for cleaning, plating shots for chefs.

Single point of contact

Same WhatsApp thread for the booking, the pro, and us.

Handwritten note

Left after every booking. Old-world hospitality is still hospitality.

The Supply Engine

Where the people
come from.

Hotels alone won't scale us to a thousand pros. The supply pipeline is its own moat — five sourcing channels, three of which we already own. The professionals full-time staff used to provide, sourced and trained for the household that doesn't keep them on payroll.

01 · HOTELS

Five-star direct hire

ITC, Taj, Oberoi, Marriott, JW, Four Seasons. People already trained in five-star hospitality, looking for shift work — not 14-hour rosters.

73% of pros today
02 · HOSPITALITY SCHOOLS

Campus pipelines

IHM, OCLD, top hotel-management institutes. Direct-from-classroom hiring for chefs, stewards, F&B service. The bench before they hit the floor.

Direct intake
03 · KAAM

Founder-owned platform

Kaam.com — India's hospitality jobs platform, 12M+ candidates, founder-owned. Vertical integration competitors literally cannot replicate.

Exclusive to Byde
04 · KAABIL

Mahindra × Gates Foundation

The 1M-jobs initiative for Indian women. Pre-screened, dignity-first pipeline. The moat with the social licence.

Exclusive to Byde
05 · BYDE ACADEMY

Our own school

Set up in dense supply zones. 68 hours mandatory. NSDC-aligned curriculum. Every pro graduates through it before their first booking.

100% pass through

Five channels in. One uniform out. The professionals full-time staff used to keep on payroll — now on rotation, by demand.

Three steps to effortless living.

Trained professionals.

Every person who enters your home through Byde has been vetted, trained, and continuously evaluated.

Hotel-Grade Training

Multi-week program in hospitality excellence, hygiene, and service.

Background Verified

Government ID, police clearance, address verification, references.

Quality Rated

Every job rated. Below 4.5 stars means retraining or removal.

Zero Commission

No hidden fees. Pros earn more. You pay fair. Everyone wins.

The Byde Grid

A logistics network
nobody else can copy.

An app is not a moat. Anyone can build an app. The moat is the proprietary mobility layer underneath — the network that gets a hotel-trained chef to your kitchen in the same time it takes a Swiggy rider to drop off paneer.

60-minute promise, citywide

Pre-positioned pros across South & West Mumbai zones, dispatched by ML-driven demand forecasting.

E-bike + intercity rider fleet

We own the last-mile movement. Pros never wait for a cab. Equipment never arrives late.

Resting hubs in every cluster

Quiet rooms where pros refresh between bookings. Your chef doesn't arrive after a 90-minute Metro ride.

Live capacity dashboard

The internal Grid console shows every available pro, every active booking, every gap — in real time, run by a 24/7 ops team.
