What's the endgame? Founded in 2024 by Rohit Ramesh and Ankit Choudhary, Iztri runs a hyper-local network on an apartment-hub model that pairs neighbourhood infrastructure with workforce operations and technology. It currently offers clothes ironing in Bengaluru, serving more than 25,000 customers and employing over 200 workers.

Where's the money going? Iztri plans to deepen its hub network and strengthen its operational and technology systems. It also aims to expand beyond ironing into dry cleaning and shoe care.

Why now? The company is targeting more than 100,000 customers within six months. It plans to raise hub density in Bengaluru, then expand across southern India over two to three years before entering India's top five metro cities.
