Roommate / Housing Share Platforms Enable Video Recording / Playback so You Know Whom to Meet

Ever try to find a housemate and have no idea who answered your ad? Roommate platforms can save you from those first painful moments of meeting -- or spending time on a call with someone who clearly isn’t a fit (it’s rude to hang up after just a few seconds on a call). By capturing videos of housemates introducing themselves, you’ll know instantly who could be the right fit for your living situation. And with Ziggeo’s video API (an embeddable video recorder / player) it’s easy for folks to record themselves on their phones (or upload videos) so they are submitted directly to your dashboard -- or sent to your account on your selected platform. Video profiles can also be made public -- or viewable by all members of your platform. It’s up to you how you configure the settings. You can also introduce yourself and your living situation on video with Ziggeo. That way there are no surprises on either end.
