Salary benchmarks
Our take
Back in 2011, TaskRabbit took full advantage of a growing trend - that technology enables consumers to do more commerce in their homes than ever before. Its marketplace connects users to "Taskers" that can perform virtually any role customers require, such as heavy lifting and cleaning.
TaskRabbit's product is diverse, with the potential to enter any commerce sector in the world. In 2017, the company was acquired by IKEA, which gave it the resources to undergo a data-driven European expansion which included launching in Germany and France, as well as increasing services in densely-populated UK areas.
By developing internationally, while also emphasising its offerings as a delivery service, the company has set itself up on the world stage. Having continued to grow and expand its offerings, TaskRabbit remains a key player in the gig economy, with every sign that it will continue its successes into the future.
