Introduction

After managing room-by-room rentals and living with more than 20 roommates, I built Cohabi — a platform for shared-property and roommate coordination.

The problem

House hackers, landlords, and co-living operators juggle chats, notes, and spreadsheets. Roommates need clarity on chores and expectations. The system breaks as the house scales.

Strategy

Build from real constraints I lived through: chores, reminders, inspections, communication, and property-level organization.

What was built

  • Chore and reminder workflows
  • Inspection support
  • Shared communication patterns
  • Property dashboard concepts
  • Accounting and rent-related tooling (expanding)

Technology

Cross-platform product engineering with modern TypeScript stacks suitable for mobile and web experiences.

Outcome

Cohabi continues to ship based on operator and roommate feedback. Explore the product at cohabi.co.
