Chowbus adjusts sign-up flow and adds pricing page

Chowbus now directs visitors to book a demo instead of offering free sign-up and has added a pricing page. The company previously highlighted handpicked Asian food delivery and introduced a careers page and free sign-up.

  • Between September 2010 and July 2017, Chowbus changed its homepage headline from “Chow Down!” to “Chowbus - Handpicked Asian food, delivered.”. [1]
  • Between July 2019 and January 2021, Chowbus added a careers page. [2]
  • Between July 2019 and January 2021, Chowbus added a free sign-up or free trial. [3]
  • Reading: Between January 2023 and July 2025, Chowbus dropped its free sign-up in favor of asking visitors to book a demo and added a pricing page, which suggests a shift toward a more sales-led and structured offering. [4][5]
