DoorDash began life as a paloaltodelivery.com and at launch the four founders ran the entire operation, which included building the app, receiving orders and delivering them. It instilled a culture in the startup which is still ingrained today, as DoorDash employees spend one day a month as a ‘dasher’ delivering food. In the first year of operations, DoorDash expanded to 70 restaurants in the Bay Area and received $2.4 million in funding. It grew at a rate of 20 percent every week, according to Y Combinator. Its goal was to build an artificial intelligence system capable of perfecting delivery, by taking into account every variant of the delivery process and using the data to better estimate delivery time and reduce errors.
