It searches housing options from different sources at once and allows you to compare the listings based on price, distances and other options on a map.
For example, you will be able to view a particular apartment in San Francisco and see ads from Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace and other home-share/roommate startups -- and compare its offerings and prices against each other or the traditional rent prices.
As of writing this, the app has just gone live. So right now there isn't a lot of listings yet (just a few dozen in San Francisco and the Bay Area). However if you feel nice, you can help me by clicking the "Add Your Website" button. Just put the URL in there and the listing will get indexed onto the app.
The goal of this tool is to provide the best ways to compare the offerings from all housing listings and help you discover new housing options that you may not have thought about (such as home-sharing or living in an airstream van).
In the next coming days, as I continue to work on the crawling/indexing system and process, the listings in the SF/Bay area will become populated pretty quickly.
I look forward to reading your feedbacks! Thank you!
I don't understand the "Add Your Website" thing, considering the mention of "see ads from Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace and other home-share/roommate startups." Do we provide the URL of a Craigslist search that we want to watch?
The 'add your website' button is if you have an apartment complex website, housing startup website, or a craigslist/facebook posting you'd like for us to index.
You can give us the URL and we will include it in our results after verification of its validity and availability.
The "Add Your Website" is essentially for other housing startups who want their listings to be added onto the map.
It's still early and we're exploring how the listings ecosystem is going to populate and retire itself. We're thinking of using a combination of crawling/indexing, 3rd party APIs/feeds, and manual submissions (aka "add your website" button) to achieve this.

I'm in Sacramento and would love to use this.
