This photograph taken on July 3, 2026 shows employees of the on-demand home-services platform Snabbit, heading to work in Bengaluru. For decades, households in India have relied on an informal army of domestic workers hired through word of mouth to mop floors, wash dishes and cook meals. Now a growing crop of startups, such as Snabbit, Pronto and Urban Company, is attempting to bring structure to the largely unregulated sector that employs an estimated 30 million workers, most of them women.
