Cohabit – How it Works
Problem:
Finding the right roommate is often harder than finding the room itself. Students and young professionals struggle with:
Random allocations in hostels/PGs.
Mismatched lifestyles (sleep cycles, cleanliness, study habits).
Lack of trust or background information about potential roommates
This leads to conflicts, stress, and even people shifting rooms frequently.
Solution (Cohabit):
Cohabit is a roommate-matching and co-living platform designed to help people find compatible roommates and stress-free living arrangements.
Key Features:
1. Roommate Finder
Users create a profile highlighting lifestyle, preferences (quiet vs social, cleanliness level, hobbies, budget).
Smart matching algorithm suggests compatible roommates based on shared interests and habits.
2. Verified Profiles
ID verification and background checks ensure safety and trust.
Reviews/ratings from previous roommates add authenticity.
3. Room & PG Listings
Partnered hostels, PGs, and co-living spaces list available rooms.
Users can find both a place and a compatible roommate at the same time.
4. In-App Communication
Chat and connect with potential roommates before finalizing.
Ice-breaker questions and interest tags make conversations easier.
5. Add-On Management Tools (future scope)
Once roommates are matched, Cohabit can also help with expense splitting, chores, and grocery management.
Why Cohabit is Useful:
Helps students and professionals find the right people to live with, not just a vacant bed.
Builds trust through verified profiles and reviews.
Reduces roommate conflicts by ensuring compatibility from the start.
Saves time by combining room search + roommate search in one app.
Target Users:
College students moving to hostels/PGs.
Young professionals shifting to new cities and co-living apartments.
PG/hostel owners who want to match tenants better and reduce turnover.
Future Potential:
Expansion into a full co-living ecosystem with discounts on groceries, cleaning, and other student/professional services.
AI-based roommate compatibility scoring.
Integration with campus ambassador programs and relocation services.
