Words from our Mentors
I met HelloTask for the first time at GP Accelerator Batch 5. Their idea was outstanding by morale seemed weak. They were addressing domestic workers as "maids" and I rebuked them. They took it positively and changed their values in respect of domestic workers. Today, they are one of the most value-creating impact startups working with the class at the bottom of the pyramid. I love the enthusiasm in this young team to standardize the care economy in Bangladesh.

“HelloTask is a super persistent team. They are solving a real problem that every household goes through in Dhaka by sourcing domestic helpers. They are a quick learners and one of the most focused teams solving one problem at a time.”
- Rashed Mujib NomanCEO, Augmedix Bangladesh
“These guys are building a DREAM STARTUP in Bangladesh. They are at the highest stage of Growth hacking, they are getting 100% organic customers without any marketing at all. They are working with a segment, which is not Smartphone enabled at all (Maids). Yet they implemented an UBER-like experience with 100% cashless system. I am super proud to be able to actively advise them, and be part of their awesome journey. They are going to build one of the greatest and REAL success stories in Bangladeshi Startup canvas.”
