AVO

Avo (avonow.com) was a New York City-based "building commerce" and workplace-amenity platform, founded 2017-2018 out of Y Combinator (S18) and backed by Insight Partners and Kleiner Perkins with roughly $84M raised. It offered white-labeled same-day delivery of groceries, household goods, alcohol and personal-care items into residential and office buildings with no order minimums or delivery fees, plus on-site and virtual event programming and corporate gifting and recognition services, serving apartment communities, corporations, hospitals and universities across New York, New Jersey, Chicago and Houston. Avo published no API, SDK or developer portal, and as of a 2026-07-20 probe its domain resolves to a parked lander with no operational hosts; Y Combinator lists the company as inactive.

AVO is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Delivery, Logistics, Last Mile Delivery, and Grocery.
