Building Homi.

AI home search · pre-seed · year one.

Brooklyn—since Sep '25

The main bet

Homi — find a home like a person with a broker.

Finding a home is fragmented: listings, spreadsheets, group chats, forwarded links. Homi is the intelligent layer on top — a place to collect, compare, collaborate — and eventually let AI agents scout for you.

Privilege expansion — giving regular people the kind of home-search support usually reserved for those with brokers.
