Workers never pay anything.
About Saathi

We are building Saathi to make trusted domestic help easier to find, and fairer for the people who do the work.

Today most families find a maid or cook through word of mouth or an agent. Agents charge high fees, often to the worker, and families get little say or protection. We think a simple, verified, local network can do better for both sides.

The founders

Three computer science students who want to make domestic workers easier to reach, and the hiring process fairer and simpler.

Workers first

Workers never pay. We say it on every page because it is the reason Saathi exists.

Trust you can check

Every profile is verified by a person on our team, and families confirm skills after each placement.

Close to home

We match by distance first, so workers spend less time travelling and more time earning.

Work with us

We are early, and we are looking for NGOs, skilling programmes and livelihood organisations that train workers. We would like to help the people you train find work without paying a fee.
