Pair students who actually get along
A short lifestyle questionnaire scores applicants on the factors that make or break a shared unit — so you fill empty beds with compatible roommates instead of random assignments.
Lifestyle compatibility scoring
Sleep schedule, cleanliness, study habits, and social preferences weighted into one score.
Auto-suggested roommate groups
Platuni surfaces the best matches for each open bed and lets students opt in.
Fewer conflicts, higher renewals
Well-matched roommates mean fewer mid-year transfers and more renewals for next fall.
One platform across the academic year
From listing a bed to renewing for next fall — Platuni connects every step of the student rental cycle.
Create bed-level listings and reach students
Publish rooms and beds with amenities, distance to campus, and per-bed pricing, then syndicate across the student channels renters actually search.
