Quest Bridge Round

Creating the next million jobs uniquely human, powered by AI.

🧭 Overview

Quest is building the AI-powered horizontal marketplace for on-demand services, connecting people instantly with verified local Heroes to get anything done, from errands and home help to creative gigs and part-time staffing.

We’ve proven strong organic traction across multiple markets with zero ad spend, and we’re raising a $200K–$300K SAFE bridge to extend runway and scale what’s working before our next institutional round.

🌍 The Opportunity

Billions of daily human tasks still happen offline or through fragmented networks. Quest simplifies this with an AI-powered assistant that lets anyone post a request and get matched to the right person within minutes.

We’re building the infrastructure for the global micro-services economy, starting with Asia, a $100B+ opportunity across flexible work, errands, and local services.

  • 100 % organic growth through TikTok and Instagram Reels virality, Reddit, and ChatGPT SEO
