For every minute spent organizing, an hour is earned.
- Benjamin Franklin
At HOMEiStudent, we don’t just build apps; we create smart, student-focused tools that simplify shared living and help university students thrive both at home and in their academic lives.
What is HOMEi?
HOMEi is the UK’s first all-in-one household management app tailored specifically for university students living in shared accommodation. Developed through the University of Sheffield’s Emerge Start-Up Programme, HOMEi is built to solve the real-life challenges students face every day.
Whether it’s forgotten chores, split bills, or clashing schedules, HOMEi brings harmony to your households with features designed to keep everything organised and everyone on the same page:
- Smart shared calendar to schedule events, deadlines, and tasks
- Chore tracker and task organiser for fair and transparent housework
- Bill splitter and debt tracker to make shared expenses stress-free
- Group lists for groceries, supplies, or anything your house needs
Simple to use and packed with powerful tools, HOMEi helps to avoid misunderstandings, stay on top of responsibilities, and make the most of your time at university.
Our Mission
Student life is exciting but can quickly become overwhelming when you're juggling deadlines, part-time work, and life in a shared house. That’s why our mission at HOMEiStudent is simple: to help you take back control of your time, your home, and your wellbeing.
HOMEi empowers you to:
- Communicate better with housemates and avoid unnecessary conflict
- Share household responsibilities in a fair and transparent way
- Keep track of what matters, from bills and chores to social plans and deadlines
- Reduce stress, improve productivity, and feel more at ease in your own space
By helping you stay organised and connected at home, HOMEi gives you the freedom to focus on what really matters: your studies, your friendships, and your university journey.
Our Sustainability Pledge
At HOMEiStudent, we believe in using technology responsibly. That includes protecting the planet. That’s why we pledge 1% of all profits to certified carbon removal projects via Stripe Climate.
Our contributions support cutting-edge efforts such as:
- Direct air capture to remove CO₂ from the atmosphere
- Biomass carbon removal to store carbon naturally in the earth
- Ocean alkalinity enhancement to improve ocean health and capture carbon
Looking ahead, our long-term commitment is to become a carbon-negative company, removing more carbon than we produce by 2030.
When you use HOMEi, you’re doing more than staying organised, you’re helping make the world a better, cleaner place.
