Auto Aggregator Jugnoo Launches Bumbl, A Workflow Automation Tool

On-demand hyper-local service provider and auto aggregator, Jugnoo has launched its new product, Bumbl, a workflow automation tool. It’s a B2B SaaS offering of the Jugnoo that connects important apps to build workflows. It is an easy automation tool used by companies where the information moves between the web pages through API, making workforce focus on important work saving time and with ease, leading to effective results.

Currently, Bumbl has 7 apps - Tookan, Slack, Mailgun, Mailparser.io, Twilio, Generic webhook and Zoho CRM lead creation, but soon it plans to add more common apps to the platform. At the initial stage of inception, it is providing access to its Tookan clients globally in its private BETA stage.

The product is launched with the thought of augmenting all the processes at one platform. Soon Bumbl would be open to other client range with its full-fledged B2B offering. Previously, companies were using costly integrating products or making a manual system which involved a lot of coding for managing the workflow, but with Bumbl, all of the coding time would be eliminated.

Bumbl will let users make a maximum of their time while streamlining the roles in various verticals. For instance, in marketing, it can help in sending automated emails, managing smart twitter and facebook campaigns, in sales processes- from assigning tasks to scoring and tracking leads. It also comes handy with the payment and internal processes like creating and sending automate invoices, keeping tracks of payments and setting up cross-functional workflow among many other functions it can arrange.

Commenting on the development, Samar Singla, CEO and Founder of Jugnoo said, “Many of our Tookan clients were previously using other integrating tools for workflow automation, so we thought of launching of an in-house product which would streamline the workforce in a cost effective manner. Our main focus is to provide our customers with an end to end solution for all their business management needs.”

With Bumbl, anybody can build up a workflow with just a click. For professionals, it's a blessing in disguise. With looming deadlines and lesser time to organize files, updates and check feedbacks, Bumbl would help in managing products and client work. It opens up the possibilities of integrating with the right apps at the right time.

The future plans of the program hope to rope in more clients and adding more popular and common apps to its platform making the work extremely hassle free. The idea is to bring in the complex processes and make it easier for the clients.

Launched in November 2014, Jugnoo has ventured into the industry as one of the leading hyper-local startups. Headquartered in Chandigarh, the company is currently rendering its services in 40 cities of India and trending at 50,000 daily transactions. It has over 15,000 autos empanelled under the brand at present. The company offers a wide range of services like Rides, Fatafat, Meals, Menus and Jugnoo Delivery across different verticals of hyper-local logistics in B2B and B2C domains.

With Launch of Menus In 21 Cities, Jugnoo Takes A Big Leap In Restaurant Aggregation

Within 4 months of its launch, the app-based service that enables customers to order food from restaurants in the city has been expanded into 21 cities across India and has enrolled over 5000 merchants including prominent brands like Pizza Hut, KFC, Subway, Burger King and Domino’s.

Commenting on the development, Samar Singla, Founder and CEO of Jugnoo said, “We already have a good customer base in Tier II and Tier III cities due to our Rides vertical. As we are adding more offerings to our platform, it is enabling us to grow really fast. With Menus, we are witnessing a steady week-on-week growth of 20% and plan to add around 1000 new merchants every week. Currently servicing over 2000 orders per day, the venture is a big boon for local merchants who are high on quality but don’t get enough visibility. Menus is helping them scale their business and fulfil their delivery requirements.”

Founded in November 2014, Jugnoo offers a range of services like rides, ready to eat meals, restaurant food delivery, grocery and B2B delivery. Headquartered in Chandigarh, the company is currently rendering its services in 40 cities of India and trending at 50,000 daily transactions.

With this expansion, Jugnoo claims that it has become the only platform to offer this kind of service in Tier II and Tier III cities like Jaipur, Udaipur, Jodhpur, Kota, Vadodara, Indore and Bhopal. Further, as Jugnoo is utilising the logistics network of its B2B vertical for its restaurant food delivery segment, it is able to facilitate home delivery option for merchants who don’t have transportation means to do that. For customers, the service is not only convenient but also more economical as they can avail huge discounts while placing orders via Jugnoo app.

“We keep coming up with a lot of festival campaigns that enable people living in metros to send gifts to their friends and relatives in smaller cities. Unlike other restaurant aggregators, who hire third-party delivery partners, we ensure quick and convenient delivery through our own B2B logistics service.” Samar added.

Jugnoo’s Menus service is currently available in Chandigarh, Indore, Jaipur, Gurgaon, Noida, Bhopal, Vadodara, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Kota, Surat, Ahmedabad, Faridabad, Hyderabad, Coimbatore, Lucknow, Nashik, Ludhiana, Pune, Madurai and Nagpur.

IIT Delhi Alumni startup ‘Click Labs’, plan to incubate 100 startups

Click Labs is a full service Custom App, Software Development and Technology Solutions Company started by IIT Delhi Alumni. They are a company who believe in taking a mobile first approach for their projects. They are currently working across 4 key verticals - Startups/ MVP solutions; Mobile gaming; Enterprise Mobility and Internet of Things (IoT). With a base in San Francisco and a development center in Chandigarh, their 150+ strong team has successfully executed more than 100 projects across mobile, gaming, small businesses and enterprises in a span of less than three years.

The company was started in 2011 by Samar Singla and Chinmay Agarwal. Samar is a serial entrepreneur and an alumni from IIT Delhi. He came back to India after a year doing MS in University of Maryland to bring technology to the poultry sector and created Prodigy Foods which is the largest company providing soya substitute as poultry feed today. One year after stabilizing the operations he sold off the majority stake in Prodigy to start his next entrepreneurial gig, Click Labs, since technology was something which always fascinated him. Chinmay on the other hand is the CTO of Click Labs and is leading a team of over a hundred web and mobile application developers and designers. He has done his Dual Masters in Robotics Engineering from Ecole Centrale Nantes, France and B.Tech in Electrical Engineering from IIT Delhi.

When Click Labs was started, majority of the players in the market were focused on products business. "I felt that there were not enough smart people in the services industry and hence I started the IT services business to cash on that opportunity. We took time to establish ourselves in the services business, and the focus was on building a strong team all through," he says.

They have worked for 'Uber like solutions' in the B2B space and are now leveraging that expertise to enable B2C solutions for the Indian audience. “We have built a platform to enable companies to build a customized ‘Uber for anything’ in less than a month. Some of our successful solutions implemented in B2B space till date are TaxiHawk -Uber for Taxi companies, Ezy Moove - Uber for Moving Companies, NudgeFX- Uber for Fitness Trainers,” says Parag Jain, CMO and IIT Delhi Alumnus as well.

"With our solution, you can build your Uber for anything in less than a month, at approximately 10-40% of the cost of building the solution from scratch; and at the same time retain the flexibility and scalability of the solution to get the business model right," says Sanjay Dhakar, COO and an Electrical Engineering pass out from IIT Delhi. The solution can be fully customized depending on the local business needs and comes as a monthly subscription model. They are constantly striving to make the solution even more modular so as to further reduce the implementation time and fasten the go-to-market.

They are enabling entrepreneurs build their own 'Uber for X' products. "Our recently launched incubator, Next Juggernaut, is our first step towards that direction," says Rohit Goyal, the CBO who heads the sales team. Their startup incubator, Next Juggernaut, has recently partnered with Amazon Web Services under their “Activate” program for incubators. "This will enable our incubates, an access to world class services from Amazon, including technological, commercial and go-to-market enablement. We also have a syndicate network of investors interesting in the Indian ODMS B2C space," adds Rohit, a pass out from IIT Delhi as well.

They have expertise across the entire technology spectrum which is required to create world class mobile applications and games. "Our technology stack is quite diverse although we prefer working on the newer stack with NodeJS/Ruby as Scripting languages and NoSQL or distributed databases. We are pretty flexible with native and cross platform front end mobile and web clients and choose them on case to case basis," says the CTO.

They have a base in San Francisco and a development center in Chandigarh and their 150+ strong team is successfully executing projects across mobile, gaming, small businesses and enterprises applications. “As we unwind our next wave of growth, we are focusing big on 'On Demand Mobile Services' (ODMS) and have recently launched 'Next Juggernaut', an incubator to support entrepreneurs conceptualize and develop Uber for X based solutions,” says the founder. "We want to democratize entrepreneurship and be an enabler for sharing economy. Our vision, which loosely relates to Rocket Internet model, is to incubate 100 startups in the coming decade," adds Parag. Next Juggernaut would provide a larger runway to entrepreneurs who can't afford to spend big on customized technology solutions. At the same time, they have already specialized marketing and production teams which can provide sound, practical advice to the incubated companies. This would enable the incubated startups to reduce the burn rate and rather iterate on their business model to get the solution right. They are moving towards a product-services hybrid model.

The team is looking to raise funding to fuel the next stage of growth. As a message for future entrepreneurs, Samar says, "I would strongly urge future entrepreneurs to work in India rather than going to US/Europe for greener pastures. India offers a lot of opportunities for entrepreneurs and it's the right time to work in India in the technology sector. The mobilization of technology and the collaborative economy potential are soon going to help hundreds of startups become big."
