4 apps, 1 nurse, 2 hours: the vitamin d sourcing story we keep coming back to

we keep coming back to this one.

a couple months back, arjun vaidya, co-funder at v3 ventures, broke down how he got a vitamin d shot sorted, start to finish, in about 2 hours. the whole chain:

1:00pm - doctor drops a digital prescription on whatsapp

1:30pm - vials ordered on 1mg, at his desk in 30 mins

1:35pm - pings faff to sort a nurse

1:38pm - faff calls portea

2:30pm - nurse arrives, no syringe (classic)

2:32pm - she orders one from the chemist next door

2:38pm - swiggy genie runner already en route

3:00pm - shot done

3:05pm - arjun is back on a zoom call

total cost: under ₹1K

4 apps, 1 nurse, less than 2 hours. our bit was one line in the middle: he sent a message, and he never had to think about it again.

that’s the whole reason faff exists. you don’t coordinate the chain. you send one text and it quietly happens around you.

genie rules apply. 🧞

what's a task that finally broke you?

spent the afternoon doing discussing this at faffhq today.

was thinking about what actually makes people go from "haha outsourcing is a luxury" to "i'm so done, i need to hand this over"

the 31-minute jingle you hear on hold. the fred again ticket refresh. the last minute gifting panic. the 3am wake-up call. travel planning / booking coordination that feels like it'll take 5 mins but takes up an hour. customer care chat loops that go nowhere.

what was yours? the one task that finally made you go "i don't wanna do this, i wish someone else could"

tell me below, i will read every one (and i will be taking notes)

mod insider info: faff cheat $sheet

most people find these out after chatting w us, but here's some insider info for our reddit day 1's:

  • if you're in, you basically get unlimited tasks every month. no claude usage limit typa thing
  • $refer is a golden code word. drop it in chat, get rewards if your friends land. great life-hack for perks
  • "help me with home repairs means "the fridge is making that noise and i don't want to deal with it." they handle the repair, the coordination, and update you when its done.
  • faff will chase refunds and do customer care follow-ups for you. however long it takes. days. weeks. without asking. then tell you when it's done. (once we got someone a full refund on their ps5 order that got stuck)
  • voice notes work. send 3am rambles about your daily tasks. wake up to options. no formatting needed
  • lunch from home to office is a thing. pickup, delivery, timing. they handle the coordination. you just gotta ask
  • grocery restocks can go recurring. they coordinate with your help, or handle it themselves based on your preference
  • travel isn't just ticket bookings. they help with planning, help out if you're stuck with anything in a new city/country, and help with backups if plans change
  • random errands and appointments. bill pays, package tracking, rescheduling. the stuff on your mental to-do list for weeks
  • they fully commit to important wake up calls. someone at office learned this after missing a flight
  • 👀 someone once also asked for a call to get out of a really bad date. if you know you know.

comment with your own hacks. no gatekeeping pls.
