Hux, Inc. is an e-commerce startup based in Atlanta, Georgia, founded in 2014. The company's slogan, "Instantly book house cleaners & handymen," reflects its main focus on providing a convenient online marketplace for booking local service providers. Similar to Airbnb, Hux allows users to compare service providers based on reviews, total price, pictures, and availability before instantly booking an appointment online. The current services offered are centered around house and apartment cleaning, with plans to expand into a wider variety of services in the future.
One of the key aspects of Hux's business model is its use of technology to eliminate traditional middlemen in the service industry, allowing service providers to earn more and customers to pay less. The company has received positive recognition with 5-star ratings on Yelp and Google, indicating a high level of customer satisfaction.
In terms of investment, Hux secured a $1.25M Seed Round investment on 17 February 2016 from notable investors including Draper Associates and Dau Group, represented by Adam Mangone and Tim Draper. This backing demonstrates confidence in the company's potential for growth and success in the e-commerce and service marketplace industry.
