History
Alex Depledge, Jules Coleman, and Tom Nimmo co-founded Hassle.com in March 2012. Originally called Teddle, Hassle.com launched in Shoreditch in late 2012 with the aid of Techstars London (then known as Springboard), and various Angel Investors, before rebranding to Hassle and relocating to Vauxhall in 2013. The founders settled on the name Hassle for the company because they wanted to remove the hassle from people's lives so they can spend more time doing the things they love. Hassle.com originally covered 27 service providers, such as personal trainers and driving instructors, before narrowing their focus to house cleaning at the end of 2012.
Founder of Hailo, Ron Zeghibe joined Hassle.com as non-executive chairman in April 2013. In 2014, Hassle.com received $6M in series A funding from Facebook-backer Accel Partners. With the help of this new funding, Hassle.com has since expanded their services into Europe
