Some of my best periods of life and work came from living in shared houses with other builders — both in SF and abroad. With people moving to SF again for Y Combinator in January, I wanted to make something that could help others create that same kind of experience.

SF rent is brutal, and finding good housemates is weirdly hard — most people just settle for whatever they can find first that isn't terrible. So I built a simple directory where you can publish your housing search or browse others who are also moving.

It's intentionally lightweight: no fluff, no complicated flows — just a way for people to put themselves out there and hopefully form groups that make the whole move a lot more fun and a lot less chaotic.

I'm not with YC this batch, but I'm heading to SF in January anyway with some builder friends and would love extra company. Looking for roughly 4 more people for an 8-person hacker house (~$4k/person).

I'd love feedback on whether this is useful, what's missing, or if you've had co-living experiences that shaped your thinking.
