What people are dealing with

Scrolling through all the different groups is exhausting. I actually set up automation just to do it for me.

What Nova does

One agent, the whole search.

Everything below runs automatically once you tell Nova what you're looking for.

01
Search runs continuously
Craigslist, Reddit, Facebook groups, Discord, and more — checked around the clock instead of you refreshing tabs.
02
Agent-to-agent matching
Before you message anyone, Nova and their agent confirm budget, dates, and dealbreakers actually line up.
03
Verified people only
Phone verification and LinkedIn identity badges on every profile that reaches you.
04
Every match, explained
Recommendations come with the reasoning behind them — not just a percentage.
05
Scam detection built in
Every listing is screened for fraud patterns before it ever shows up in your results.
06
Forecasts graded against reality
Nova predicts friction before move-in, and tracks whether it was actually right.

Nova's Insight

"Price fits your budget and it's in a neighborhood you picked. Legitimacy score is strong — no red flags."

The part nobody else does

Before you ever say hi.

When two people look compatible, Nova and their agent run a simulation first — so you know what living together would actually be like before either of you messages the other.
