Why we exist

Everyone deserves a home where they actually get along.

Not just a room within budget — a household that fits your life. So we score compatibility before you swipe, not after you move in.

Why CoHabby

Stop rolling the dice on roommates

We look at how you actually live, not just what a bio says.

The Synergy Score

One honest number

Sleep schedules, cleanliness, social life — scored into one honest number across 40+ dimensions. Not astrology. Not vibes. Answers. No other roommate platform computes this.

People first, place second

Find the right person, then figure out where to live. A great apartment with the wrong roommate is still the wrong home.

16 living archetypes

Quick quizzes reveal your real living style — and exactly why you fit, not just a number.

Rooms, in the same app

Browse and post real listings. Find a room, or find the right person to fill yours — sorted by fit.

Messaging is free. Full stop.

No subscription, no message cap, no catch. Your contact info stays private until you share it.

No hidden fees

No surprise charges, no impossible cancellations. Block and report instantly. Delete your account anytime.

How it works

Three steps to a calmer home

Answer honestly

Morning person or night owl? Dishes now or Sunday? About 5 minutes of questions about how you actually live.

See who fits

Browse people ranked by how well you'd live together. Filter by location, budget, and move-in date — and see exactly why you fit.

Connect & move in

Message free, meet when it feels right, and move in with someone you already know you get along with.

YOUR 20-SECOND TASTE

What kind of housemate are you?

3 questions. A read on your style. Then decide if you want the real quiz.

Who it's for

Built for the big transitions

Every stage of life, every budget — the first step whenever home has to change.

First job, new city

New grads

Relocating for work and starting from zero? Find someone you'd actually befriend, not just split rent with.

13-week contract

Travel nurses

Stretch your stipend without gambling on strangers. Compatible short-term housing between contracts.

Off-campus year

Students

Moving out of the dorms? Match on study habits and sleep schedules before you sign anything.

Fresh start

Single parents

Stability, support, and someone who understands family life — cost savings and community in one.

Trust, by design

The un-scammy way to find a roommate

Verified people

Everyone completes a profile and adds a photo before they can message. Bots don't make it in, and reports are reviewed within 24 hours.

How safe search works

Private by default

All chat stays in-app — your number and email stay yours until you choose to share them. No public contact info, nothing for scammers to harvest.

Scam prevention guide

Prices that respect you

Seekers pay $0 — messaging included, always. Listing a room costs $2.99/month while other platforms charge many times that to even reply.
