City life starts with the right roomie. Lyvi is the roommate-matching app built exclusively for college students and recent graduates moving to new cities. Unlike generic platforms full of unverified strangers, Lyvi connects you with people who actually fit your lifestyle — from your university, your industry, your vibe. WHY LYVI? Every year, over 1.6 million graduates relocate to major cities with no safe, dedicated way to find compatible roommates. Facebook groups are sketchy. Existing apps are generic, paywalled, and built for everyone — which means they're really built for no one. Lyvi is different. We built this for you. FEATURES: - Verified profiles linked to Instagram & LinkedIn — know exactly who you're matching with - University filters — match with people from your school or expand to similar backgrounds - Lifestyle compatibility matching — cleanliness, schedule, social habits, and more - Familiar swipe & like interface — just like dating apps, but for finding your next roommate - Secure in-app messaging — chat safely before committing to anything - Group roommate formation — already have a place? Find your missing roommate - Intern toggle — perfect for summer housing searches BUILT FOR: - College students with internships or co-ops - Fresh graduates relocating for their first job - Graduate school students - Young professionals aged 18-35 Match. Chat. Move. Download Lyvi and find your people, not just a place.
