Shared-flat coordination

Whatever's happening in your flat, it's on the board.

Roomade turns the group chat into a board: issues to fix, money to split, and things people need to know, pinned, not buried.

Been going since Tuesday, driving Priya up the wall.

Get on the board

We'll email you when Roomade opens up.

The problem

The boiler guy's number is 400 messages up.

Every flat has a group chat holding it together, until the thing you actually need is buried under a meme, a “who has the spare key,” and three days of silence. Nothing has a status. Nothing resolves. It just scrolls.

The board

Three kinds of card. That's the whole system.

Issue / Need

Something to fix or buy. One person claims it, and it's resolved when it's done. Reopen it if it isn't, really.

OPENCLAIMEDRESOLVED

Spend

A shared expense, split equally. Everyone's share is tracked paid or unpaid, individually, so no more guessing who still owes for Costco.

PENDING SETTLEMENTSETTLED

Heads-Up

A text announcement, like “guest staying overnight,” that kind of thing. No resolve workflow, just an acknowledgement so you know it's been seen.

POSTEDEXPIRED

Settle up

One net balance per person, not a pile of receipts.

Every Spend card feeds one running total per household member. Mark your share paid when you've actually paid it. Roomade tracks who owes what, it doesn't move the money for you.

Net balances

  • Youowed $34.20
  • Priyaowes $12.60
  • Samowes $21.60

Getting started

From empty flat to full board in three steps.

1

Start a household

One person creates it in a minute, name it, and it's ready for the rest of the flat.

2

Invite by link or QR

Send the link or hold up the QR code. Everyone who joins sees the same board.

3

Pin the first card

An issue, a spend, a heads-up, whatever's live right now. The activity feed keeps everyone caught up on what changed while they were out.

Where things stand

What Roomade is, and isn't, right now

iOS first
Roomade is a native iPhone app. Android and web aren't built yet.
TestFlight, then App Store
Early access goes out over TestFlight before a public App Store launch.
Tracks money, doesn't move it
Settle Up tells you who owes what. You still pay each other however you already do.

Nothing to install yet. Something to save your spot for.

Early TestFlight invites go to the waitlist first.

FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Is it free?

Yes, for now. There's no pricing plan while Roomade is in early access.

When does it launch?

We don't have a fixed date yet. Waitlist signups get the first TestFlight invites.

Is it iOS only?

For now, yes. It's a native iPhone app; Android and web aren't in scope yet.

Does it actually move money?

No. Settle Up tracks who owes what. You still settle up however your flat already pays each other.

How is this different from a group chat or Splitwise?

A group chat has no status and no memory. Splitwise only does the money. Roomade puts issues, spends, and heads-ups on one board, each with its own status.

What do you do with my email?

Just used to invite you to early access. See our Privacy Policy for details.
