It provides people free of charge search and booking appointments with salons/spas, doctors and diagnostic centers headquartered in Mumbai.[1][2] It is currently operational in Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Hyderabad, Pune and Bangalore.[3]

The business covers 4000 salon & spas 20,000 doctors and 9,000 diagnostic centres across four cities.[4][5] The total number of appointments booked through the portal stands more than 26 lakh.[6]
