ServiceHunter AG was founded by David Christen and Daniel Moser in Zurich on July 27, 2010.[4] The company was built on the concept of focusing on the development of a platform for the posting and fulfillment of job requests with automated legalization of these employment relationships.[5]
In 2011, ServiceHunter AG launched quitt, pivoting away from the platform to focus on automating the registration and accounting of social security contributions for private individuals.[6][7][8]
In 2012, Luzius Meisser, Thomas Dübendorfer, Myke Näf, and Paul Sevinç, along with private investors, contributed to a financing round of 600,000 Swiss francs, and quitt was recognized among the Top 100 Startups in Switzerland.[9][10]

In 2020, quitt expanded its coverage to all 26 cantons of Switzerland.[12] In 2023, ServiceHunter AG received three Best of Swiss Apps awards for their newly launched product quitt Business for startups.[13]
