Stephanie Cummings (PAM)

🔥 We’re thrilled to announce our investment in Please Assist Me (PAM), joining forces with Collab Capital, Align Impact, Tom Blaisdell (former GP at DCM Ventures, early Intuit operator), and Techstars in their seed round. This marks another strategic investment for Ganas Ventures as we continue backing community-driven startups reshaping how people live.

💰 Founders, apply for investment consideration here.

Please Assist Me is an AI-powered home management platform delivering reliable services to apartment residents through trained W-2 employees. From package handling to cleaning to errands, PAM coordinates everything through one app, delivered by trusted professionals with recurring access to residents’ homes. They partner with top multifamily property companies to offer these services as resident amenities.

🚀 Massive Market Opportunity: The U.S. home services market exceeds $600B and is projected to surpass $1T by 2030. With 44% of Americans living in clustered housing, PAM has a built-in distribution advantage where one contract unlocks hundreds of customers.

📈 Proven Traction & Capital Efficiency: PAM is generating seven-figure revenue with a burn rate that would make most seed-stage companies jealous. Tens of thousands of units are live, with hundreds of thousands more under signed contracts ready to activate.

Defensible Moat: While competitors rely on gig workers or software-only models, PAM built the physical network first. Their proprietary AI and trained W-2 workforce create compounding advantages new entrants can’t replicate quickly.

👥 Led by Operators, Not Storytellers: CEO Stephanie Cummings coded the product herself and sits on the NMHC national board, the industry’s most influential voice. COO Rashad Cummings built the entire workforce operation from scratch, creating a career ladder that turns workers into profit-sharing owners. Roughly 40% of their DC market signed through word of mouth alone.

🔥 Why This Matters for Ganas Ventures: We invest in underestimated founders building infrastructure that serves real communities. PAM perfectly aligns with our thesis: Proof of Work over Proof of Brand, capital efficiency, and founders who are operators first.

The home services market is broken. Most platforms use gig workers with high turnover and inconsistent quality. Property managers are overwhelmed by package volume and resident demands. PAM is solving both problems at once by combining AI coordination with a reliable W-2 workforce that residents trust inside their homes. One enterprise MSA unlocks entire portfolios across markets.

✅ Seven-figure revenue with industry-leading capital efficiency
✅ Top property management partners including Bozzuto, JBG Smith, AvalonBay, and Cortland
✅ Tens of thousands of units live, hundreds of thousands contracted
✅ Expanding beyond DC and Chicago into new markets

PAM isn’t just another home services app. They’re building the infrastructure layer for how apartment residents manage their homes.

We’re proud to back Stephanie and Rashad as they build the future of home management, one trusted interaction at a time.
