Postmates
Courier service app
Postmates is a delivery service that picks up and delivers food, groceries, and other items from local businesses.
The name combines "post" (as in postal delivery) with "mates" (companions or helpers).
Founded in 2011, it became synonymous with on-demand delivery before being acquired by Uber in 2020.
I'll just Postmates some tacos.
