About

Homejoy was a San Francisco-based online marketplace that connected customers with professional home cleaning and handyman service providers across over 31 cities in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Founded in 2010 by siblings Adora and Aaron Cheung, the company used proprietary algorithms to match homeowners with on-demand contract cleaners and grew rapidly after graduating from Y Combinator. Homejoy raised approximately $40 million including a Series B round led by Google Ventures in late 2013. The company shut down in July 2015 following worker classification lawsuits that challenged its contractor model.
