Uber is worth 55B today.


Uber's valuation has more to do with the Ponzi scheme of VC -> IPO, the irrationality of investors, and breaking the law than to a solid business.

Also, startup advice based on once-in-a-generation outliers is not good advice.


I've been a longtime reader of PG articles and just joined startup school.

I accidentally started a pest control company out of university and we scaled to 10 employees in one year. I had no clue how to run a pest control company.

It was a mess running the company and thought of a software that could make operations easier.

So we built our initial MVP, a large EV car company from the Valley (take a guess) signed up and broke our MVP a few times. We rebuilt the software in a scalable manner and added route optimization among other upgrades.

[Redacted] is the easiest way to optimize routes that enables mobile service fleets to complete more appointments every day.

If you are interested in trying out our software, please email me at [redacted].

Appreciate any feedback.
