So much time lost to searching
After graduating in Breda and leaving my student accommodation, an app like this would have helped me so many times. There were moments where I had to message and interview 20 to 30 students just to find the right replacement - a platform like this would’ve saved me a lot of time and hassle.

A retention lever for universities
Even with Dutch policies reducing international students, retention is still a focus for our university. An app like this can definitely help retain students - we’re hopeful to have something like it around us in the near future.
