The first time we used DoorDash, Jessica said "This has changed my life." If you have small children you understand.

I called the support number today to see if we could have our delivery rushed since we had a concert we wanted to go to. One of the founders answered support and told us they'd have the car waiting before the food is even ready. Told him I would make sure to tip the driver handsomely.

When the food arrived (early), we offered whoever delivered the food a really nice tip, but he refused to accept it. In our large order of food were several mini DoorDash boxes. They had surprised us with desserts.

We feel special.

I was wondering what differed DoorDash from Seamless in NYC. This is one way.

Is this Kozmo.com version 2.0?

I LOVED Kozmo back in ~1999/2000.... and now I have small kids. So I am interested in how Jessica found this to change her life? Can you give her/your user story?

It's mainly changed my life on weekends, when I'm with my kids all day. I tend not to eat very well (eat junkfood/graze - anything quick!) because I'm not very good at finding the time to cook something for myself. When DoorDash delivered Oren's hummus/veggie skewers to me on a Saturday, I was so excited that I think I told Paul it changed my life.
