Students first
Built around student budgets, student schedules, and September move-ins. Everything else is secondary.
roommates+ is built by S4S — a small team that got tired of watching students gamble on strangers from Facebook groups.
Where you live shapes everything — your sleep, your grades, your sanity. But who you live with shapes it more. Our mission is simple: nobody should have to choose a roommate from a blurry group-chat screenshot ever again.
Built around student budgets, student schedules, and September move-ins. Everything else is secondary.
Verified profiles and on-demand background checks. Meeting a stranger should never feel like a leap of faith.
Semesters don't wait. From download to "wanna view it together?" should take days, not months.
Night owl vs early bird is a compatibility signal, not small talk. We treat lifestyle like the dealbreaker it is.
We watched friends pick roommates from "ROOM AVAILABLE!! DM ME" posts — and spend the rest of the year regretting it. Scams, ghosting, and zero ways to vet anyone.
What if finding a roommate felt like a dating app — swipe, match, chat — but for the most important platonic relationship of your twenties? We built it in a semester.
Swipe-based discovery, real-time chat, dual seeker/owner modes, and filters deep enough to exclude cat allergies. Students started matching on day one.
AI compatibility scoring, on-demand background checks, and the feature we're proudest of: meeting the people who want the same unit as you, before anyone signs.

Campus by campus, they keep the community real, the profiles verified, and the vibes immaculate.
