About us
Rinse is building the first and largest national (and global) brand in clothing care. We're taking on a massive consumer problem and creating a significantly better dry cleaning and laundry experience through the combination of "smart scheduling" and best-in-class quality, all supported by a strong technology backbone. We launched in 2013 and are currently in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Washington, DC, Chicago, Boston, New York, New Jersey, Austin, Dallas, and Seattle. We've grown at double-digit month-over-month rates since launch, have created a differentiated service our customers love, and have a model where the economics actually work. Rinse is backed by a group of leading VCs and CEOs who see the massive potential in what we are doing and know we are the team to do it. We are looking for stars to join our team and can’t wait to hear from you.

Had a great time in Toronto last week at the Collision Conf. I had the opportunity to host the Startup University stage on the last day, including an opening keynote where I was able to present on my top lessons learned so far on this entrepreneurial journey. It was great to share some of my experiences with a crowd full of early-stage founders (and to reflect on my 11-year journey at Rinse so far in preparation)! Thanks to Charles Wagstaff and the whole team for the coordination and help to make it happen! #CollisionConf

Our CEO and co-founder Ajay Prakash spoke with Neil C. Hughes on The Tech Talks Daily Podcast to chat about Rinse and how we're modernizing the laundry industry through technology that not only removes friction for customers but also supports local laundromats. Take a listen, and you'll learn a bit more about what has inspired our resilient leader during his entrepreneurial journey!
Thanks to Neil C. Hughes for having me on The Tech Talks Daily podcast. This was one of my favorite conversations to date. Not only did we go over the Rinse origin story, but we also covered how we help local cleaners, why we W2 our Valets, how technology is the backbone to our ability to scale, how we foster innovation and psychological safety at Rinse, and more. I also appreciated Neil’s question around who has been there for me along the way. It truly takes a village and it was nice to be able to shout out my co-founders James Joun and Sam Cheng, and my wife, brothers, and parents for all their support. Will continue to need that support since there’s still a long way to go… https://lnkd.in/gWGfhB_h
