Bengaluru home-services platform Pronto launched opt-in Pronto Verified bookings, recording cleaning work to create anonymised AI training data. Customers pay a premium and professionals earn roughly double. Pronto says it handles over one million monthly bookings across Indian homes.

Why this matters

The launch extends Pronto's expansion of opt-in camera-backed Verified services and follows scrutiny of its in-home video data practices under India's DPDP Act and MeitY's probe.
