Jobs for Everyone: How Yori Is Unlocking India’s Skill Economy
There’s a silent revolution brewing in India’s economy—one not led by big corporations, but by ordinary people with skills that others need. From neighborhood electricians to local chefs, from bike mechanics to content creators, India’s next wave of employment won’t come from job boards—it will come from platforms that organize human capability. That’s where Yori comes in.
Yori is building the world’s first lean superapp—a single platform where anyone with a usable skill can earn. Whether it’s a ride, a meal, a repair, or a home service, Yori turns every talent into a micro-business. We’re creating an AI-native skill economy that maps real-world capabilities to real-time demand.
The Problem
India’s digital platforms have largely focused on consumption—ordering food, booking rides, buying groceries. But they’ve ignored the foundation of sustainable growth: income creation. Gig workers are treated as replaceable assets, not entrepreneurs. Yori’s vision is to change that—by putting power, pricing, and visibility back into the hands of individuals.
The Yori Approach
We’re designing a bottom-up labor marketplace built around trust, efficiency, and autonomy. With smart onboarding, verified profiles, and an inbuilt rating & rewards system, Yori creates a real-time reputation graph for every participant—whether a driver, a cook, a tutor, or a technician.
Our AI-matching layer learns from user preferences, task success rates, and geographic data to match supply with hyperlocal demand—minimizing idle time, optimizing route density, and maximizing earning potential.
The Investor Lens
Globally, the gig economy market size is projected to cross $1 trillion by 2030. In India, the informal workforce exceeds 400 million people, most of whom remain digitally invisible. Yori is not just digitizing services—it’s formalizing this workforce through verified digital identities, transaction histories, and transparent incentives. This creates a scalable data moat and a recurring revenue flywheel powered by daily human interaction.
Fearless Execution
We are launching city by city, starting with Indore, where we’re already onboarding local talent across mobility, food delivery, home services, and local commerce. Our playbook is lean, community-driven, and anti-friction. Instead of burning capital on ads, we’re investing in trust loops and local visibility—the kind that builds lasting ecosystems, not temporary spikes.
The Future We See
When every skilled individual can plug into Yori’s network, employment becomes borderless. Cities grow smarter, users get faster service, and people earn fairly for their time and skills. We call this vision the “Skill Economy 2.0”—a world where talent, not privilege, defines opportunity.
At Yori, we’re not just creating an app—we’re creating a movement. If you have a skill, Yori will have jobs for you.
