Problem
Students and young professionals searching for rooms often face overwhelming, uncurated listings that ignore personal lifestyle compatibility and real commute logistics. The process generates spam for hosts and wasted time for seekers, with unclear costs and no guarantee of mutual interest before contact is made.
Solution
Yoromi is a mobile-first matching platform that pairs room seekers with compatible rooms and people using lifestyle, logistics, and budget criteria. Every suggestion includes a compatibility score with plain-language reasons, so users only see options that make sense for them. The app shows real journey times to campus or workplace by transit, car, and bike, while protecting host privacy by displaying the area rather than the exact address until a match is confirmed. Mutual acceptance is required before contact opens, reducing spam for hosts and ensuring seekers only write where they're welcome. Users can also search as a pair, applying for rooms as a group with a single conversation.
Target Audience
Primary users are students and young professionals seeking rooms in shared apartments or with live-in hosts, as well as hosts offering rooms who want vetted, compatible tenants with less spam.
Features
- Compatibility scoring engine that filters listings by lifestyle preferences, logistics, and budget, with plain-language explanations for each match
- Real transit, car, and bike journey times to the user's campus or workplace displayed on every room card
- Mutual acceptance model: contact only opens when both parties agree, with the option to withdraw requests at any time
- Area-level map display that protects host privacy, with the exact address unlocking only after a confirmed match
- Pair search functionality allowing two users to apply for rooms together with a single conversation
- Optional identity verification via document and selfie check processed by Didit, with biometric data handled only with explicit consent
- Privacy-preserving match calculation: only non-identifying profile data (age, budget, lifestyle answers, approximate location) is sent to the external scoring service, never names, emails, photos, or exact addresses
