Sooqini operates a reverse-marketplace where buyers post a wide range of services and receive offers from sellers, with the company taking a 15 percent commission. Launched in 2011 and based in London, the platform covers services from accounting and translation to cleaning, gardening and errand-running. The startup reports around 15,000 sellers on the platform and approximately £300,000 worth of jobs posted to date. It is adding trust features, including verified sellers via a tie-in with identity and reputation verification startup Veridu. The company offers a premium 'Sooqini Silver Service' subscription that acts as a personal assistant for frequent buyers and covers small task costs. Product updates include a redesigned website, an iOS app update scheduled for this month and an Android app planned for October.
