The integrated web based service offered by Onesolution addresses many of these issues and
makes information flow and office administration efficient and effective, brings transparency to
operations, dramatically improves reporting , enables management of fixed assets / stores, improves
maintenance receivables management, provides easy monitoring and control of receipts and
payments, allows you to monitor move ins/outs, change in ownership of apartments, provides
detailed complaints registration and resolution mechanism, provides effective services to residents
with 24/7 office on the web etc. IT enabled operations would increasingly become mandatory for
medium to large complexes.
Owners/ residents are used to technology driven services in their offices and their expectations are
high with regards to services offered by their associations. High rise buildings and gated properties
are the order of the day and apartment complex management is increasingly becoming more
demanding. On the other hand, members expect accountability, transparency and participative style
of functioning.
Apart from the operations and maintenance issues of running an apartment complex, other social
issues have also gained prominence in the recent past. The need to securely share information
across apartment complexes has always been a challenge. Most apartment complexes have similar
issues and residents expect a system where one can store and search for data easily.
Onesolution attempts to address issues related to the maintenance of an apartment complex and
also social issues related to networking among owners/residents from various complexes.

Security
The portal follows Web 2.0 standards in design and security measures. We follow all
the security guidelines and adhere to the latest in security standards.
CommonFloor protects privacy of its users and its clearly mentioned in our “term and
conditions” of service.
We do not sell, share or rent our users data nor spam our users.
LifeAt creates private, password protected websites for exclusive use by members of residential
communities. Residents use LifeAt sites to communicate with neighbors; post classifieds; and rate
and review local retailers, restaurants, & delivery services. Property managers and building
developers use the sites to post news and updates for residents and to attract potential buyers and
renters. The success of each site is fueled by the active participation of its membership.
The story of LifeAt begins like that of most successful businesses---with an observation of need in the
marketplace. While working with some of New York City’s highest profile real estate developers, the founder
realized that people moving to newly constructed buildings were coming from other countries, or at least other
neighborhoods, and felt uprooted when settling in their new homes.
Understanding that potential buyers were hoping to find a community and not just an apartment in which to
live, the founder racked his brain to come up with some way to foster that sense of community in a new
building. That’s when inspiration hit: create a safe, online community where fellow residents can meet and
help each other out as they explore their new surroundings. With that simple thought- LifeAt was born.
From its very first days LifeAt has grown organically- much like the individual sites themselves- to suit the
growing needs of an ever expanding client base and the list of building developers and managers requesting
their services. In little over a year, LifeAt has ballooned from dozens of sites to hundreds of sites, to where
they are today with close to a thousand sites in various stages of production.
The business model is simple and flexible enough to be applied to any residential community, anywhere in the
world. And that’s just what the founders are hoping. Plans to expand internationally are already in the works as
this little NYC based company has already moved into markets across the country with great success.
CEO Matthew Goldstein believes his company’s astounding growth is a result of passion and a sound
business model. His faith in the intrinsic value of his product allows him to be flexible and work with each
developer or building manager to create a site that will benefit each and every building’s individual needs.
Fueled by an unwavering entrepreneurial spirit, Matthew’s enthusiasm for the future of the company is not only
contagious, it leaves everyone who works with him believing that there is no limit to what a LifeAt site might
bring you!
Babajob.com is a Bangalore-based start up that uses the web and mobile technology to
connect employers and bottom-of-the-pyramid (BOP) informal sector workers (i.e. maids,
cooks, drivers, etc.) with the goal of creating a scalable, replicable and profitable solution
to combat poverty. Babajob aims to do this by creating greater market efficiency in the
informal sector through voice and web features such as SMS, UssD, automated voice
systems, and operator manned call centres, enabling employers and job seekers to find
each other.
The value that babajob offers to both its employers and job seekers is in its ability to
provide access to critical job and job seeker information through various technology
platforms. By leveraging web and mobile technology, babajob is able to scale and engage a
wider audience creating greater efficiency for employers and having a social impact on job
seekers. Employers can conveniently browse job seeker profiles based on salary, location,
languages, employment background, skills and references. Babajob offers several fee-
based services to help in the matching and hiring of seekers.
Similarly, job seekers can discover and access multiple job opportunities based on their
preferences of location, salary, job category, etc. They have the added-benefit of applying
to nearby-jobs using their low-end mobile phones.
Babajob currently has a staff of 16, over 60,000+ customers and sends out over 1 million
job alerts per month.
Babajob.com and babalife.com are a combined effort to provide the best social networking
and job site in India and worldwide. Our effort is based on two simple ideas:
1. Everyone deserves to get a better job, no matter what their income or skill level,
and
2. Technology can enhance our ability to both hire more efficiently, and better
communicate with those we care about.
Most people find jobs through people they know – namely their extended social network –
and most employers – particularly when hiring employees that work in the home - would
like to hire a person who someone they trust can vouch for. Babajob.com and babalife.com
are an attempt to digitize this process to efficiently “get the word out” and importantly
provide an incentive for the folks in between an employer and employee to connect people
together.
First we have created the most compelling social-networking site for everyone in India –
babalife.com – including folks who may not be interested in finding a new job or hiring
anyone right. Babalife.com is available through both the web and a rich SMS UI, combines
a blog, photo/video-sharing and social-networking site and is available in local Indian
languages. We hope you’ll be able to connect in richer ways with the people you care
about and find it fun too.
Here’s an example: Let’s say Rajesh is looking for a cook. He creates a posting on
babajob.com and adds a few people he knows on babalife.com. Now let’s assume that he
ultimately decides to hire his uncle’s driver’s sister. Assuming all these folks are on
babalife.com, then both Rajesh’s uncle and his driver, will earn 100R (~$2.5).
We also know that many of the people who might be hired through babajob may not have
access to a computer or phone, and so their accounts can be managed by a friend,
relative, NGO or even a cyber-café operator – called a mentor. Again, whenever someone
is hired, their mentor also earns 100R.
We hope that by offering the most compelling social network and a set of cash based
incentives, we can build a solution that leverages technology to help more people get
better jobs and meaningfully connect to each other. It's an experiment and in the end, we
hope it works.
• Poor families everywhere often fall into poverty when major health calamities
occur – if a father and primary income earner is a day laborer and loses a hand, his family
may often fall destitute (It should be noted that the solution to sudden calamity found in
many developed nations is also simple – insurance).
• On the positive side, the study showed that poor families often left the poverty
trap through income diversification i.e. they got other jobs. If a farmer started fixing
tractors on the side or a young son got a better paying job in the city, eventually that
extra income really did raise the real economic status of the family. How were these jobs
obtained? Well, the employee knew someone who knew someone.
Sean’s first thought was “Great – all they need is the village version LinkedIn.com!” but
obviously in order to make such a system work, one has to overcome the problem that
most low-income workers of the world may not be literate, nor own a mobile phone and
rarely own or have ready access to an Internet-connected PC.
Thus, babajob and babalife are really an attempt to bridge a social networking and job site
– allowing people to hire people that someone that they know can vouch – but importantly
provide a direct financial incentive for those people who connect people in a trustworthy
manner across classes AND who would be willing to help job seekers represent themselves
online, in return for compensation whenever such a job seeker is hired. It is an experiment
– a possible solution to provide all levels of job seekers more with job opportunities while
efficiently helping employers find suitable employees in their social network. We don’t
know if this will work, but we do collectively believe that the idea is interesting enough,
that we simply had to quit our day jobs to give it shot.
ABOUT DHANAX
"dhanaX is an online-offline person-to-person lending
platform that allows Indians to lend and borrow money
from each other"
Dhana signifies wealth and dhanaX stands for the exchange of wealth. dhanaX is a
stable, secure platform for exchange of micro loans. dhanaX works at two levels -
Online it communicates with individual lenders and generates loans; Offline it
networks through agents to build a database of credible borrowers. Willing lenders are
then brought in direct contact with needy borrowers. Loans thus accessed go a long
way in helping small farmers or entrepreneurs to supplement their farm income or
start a small business.
Location

dhanaX aims to be a pioneering model for successful and innovative online social
lending. 1.Provide easy access to credit for unbanked Indians and help them escape
from debilitating debt cycles. 2.Provide a profitable social investment opportunity for
the investor.
With only 34% of its population having access to formal banking systems, India has
the second-highest number of unbanked population in the world - about 135 million
or approximately 675 million people. Total credit supply, through existing formal
channels, responds to only 15% of the $90 billion demand. The only credit
alternatives for millions of underprivileged people are local pawnbrokers or
moneylenders, who usually charge anything between 40-120% interest rates per
annum.
Research has established that micro loans boast a 95% repayment rate worldwide.
This is incentive enough for Investors to consider social lending as an attractive
investment avenue. Nothing is more rewarding than the ability to empower the
community around you. Both emotionally and financially too. dhanaX aims to prove
just that.
dhanaX salutes the entrepreneurial spirit in India's small towns and villages. At
dhanaX, the power of microfinance to transform lives motivates and drives our

small farmers, underprivileged women and small business owners across the globe.

dhanaX is the best forum. We facilitate lending or borrowing of small capital using
scientific, credible methods.
• Borrowers form themselves in Self Help Groups (SHG). These SHGs are
formed on the basis of affinity, profession, location etc. These SHGs take loan
under joint guarantee.
• These SHGs approach Dhanax for Micro Credit.
• DhanaX does a two step due diligence:
o Due diligence on the SHG - Some of the checks done on SHGs
include:
Verification of their passbooks
Number of years of existence
Maintenance of proper ledgers and other books of accounts
Frequency of meetings and mechanism of operation
Leader's credentials
o Due diligence on individual members of the SHG - DhanaX checks
each member's credentials on an internally developed 40 parameters.
Some of these parameters are:
Their residence history
Their financial position
The purpose of the loan
Other outstanding loans
• The profile of these borrowers is displayed on the website. Lenders can see the
profiles of the members and decide which SHG they want to lend to

offline

DhanaX on CNBC
In lenders' words
Vedha says -
We had previously donated to organizations like CRY and ISKON, but we found that
lending through dhanaX is a better option as we are aware of the exact purpose for
which money is being used for.
SHARATH says -
The whole idea of Microfinance is a revolutionary one, and one that will be beneficial
to both the borrower and the lender provided the means are trustworthy. In dhanaX
we have that 'trust' that can go a long way in helping the investor realise his money's
worth, especially in a scenario where many farmers in India are in dire need of loans
and are susceptible to be spending more than what is necessary in paying off the
intermediaries. For a start i have invested a nominal sum of Rs. 3000/-. Ofcourse,
from the investor's point of view i am hopeful and confident that i get good returns on
my investment. It makes me happy to invest in dhanaX. I recommend the same
happiness to one and all.
DhanaX on Cashcow
"Cashcow has been following the developments in the Peer to Peer lending sector
with interest. We have blogged about Dhanax nearly a year ago and followed its
progress keenly."

Delivery Model
LabourNet uses mobile technology, such as automated, multilingual SMS messaging, GIS and GPS
applications, to announce daily job openings. It provides training opportunities, access to health
insurance, the ability to open bank accounts and receive proper identification cards for workers who
have been denied these social benefits. The system also offers assistance to the growing professional
class and mid-sized business community who find it difficult to access the “unorganized” labor sector.
LabourNet provides an answer to this growing demand by providing simplified access to qualified,
reliable, skilled workers, and taking care of the time-consuming hassle of training workers and
arranging benefits.
“At one level, LabourNet is clearly impacting lives by providing services to workers ranging from job
information to financial inclusion to health management systems,” says Gayathri Vasudevan of
LabourNet. “At another level, the effort is being recognized by NGOs and state governments, CHF's
grant funding and technical support has enabled LabourNet to pilot various strategies and prepare its
systems for scaling up across the country.”
Customers
1.What is LabourNet's relationship to the workers?
LabourNet was initiated to support informal sector workers as an institutional network which would
train workers, facilitate their financial inclusion and increase their ability to access jobs, government
schemes and social security. LabourNet is an interface that tries to help you find the help you
need! We profile and train workers. We also provide a whole range of services to workers. We do not
employ workers. We train and database workers on a continuous basis and make them accessible to
customers. We also enable routing of payments from client to worker through established banking
systems (Punjab National Bank). We do not oversee and choose their jobs. However, we enroll workers
and train them to be professionals who are quite capable of choosing the correct jobs and completing
them to customer satisfaction.
4.How can I tell which worker or labour contractor is the best one for the job?
That is the eternal question! And we have found an answer to this question. We capture your
requirements and make recommendations based on your requirements. We also advice you on the
choice to make – which worker to hire. We have developed a matrix which helps you choose
workers. But you have the freedom to choose “the right person” from amongst our vast
database. You can then employ the worker.
5.How do I know that it is safe to allow the worker to come into my house?
• All workers will have a LabourNet identity card.
• All workers have bank accounts
• Most workers have local address proof documents. Some have home town address proof
documents
This is the only network which solely works for your benefit. If you are a LabourNet member you
become eligible to the following additional benefits:
a) Assured payment through prescribed LabourNet banking system.
b) Opportunity to attend trainings when you have the time and money and thereby upgrade your
skills.
c) Opportunity to open a bank account and start Savings, and you will get a debit card.
d) Accident insurance
e) Opportunity to get medical treatment (hospitalization) in the best few hospitals in the city at a
nominal cost
That adds up to a lot of benefits... why shouldn't you get into the action, especially to get the best jobs?
Of course, the response you get will be somewhat dependent on your skills and performance. Which
you can improve by attending our training programmes. But as more and more people register, more
and more customers will come to LabourNet to find services such as yours, your income will increase
and you will benefit by becoming a LabourNet member.
Absolutely!! Yes.
If you are a repair worker or are fully employed and would like to take up temporary jobs.
4. Can you tell us how many jobs I will get through LabourNet?
As LabourNet would be actively marketing your services across all parts of the city, your chances of
getting multiple jobs is guaranteed.
• If you are a temp worker and do not respond to more than 3 calls
• If you are a maistri and are given a short project, all money needs to be routed through LN. If
you settle it independently then your membership will be cancelled
