Same questions for every applicant
Once published, the question set is locked so everyone is compared on the same criteria.
How it works
Screen roommate applicants without turning your inbox into a spreadsheet.
MyRoomMate gives listing owners a structured application flow: create the listing, choose screening questions, share one link, and review comparable applicants in one place.

Question setup
Build one consistent application flow.
Every applicant answers the same questions, turning scattered DMs into comparable applications.
- Standard listings use a curated roommate question bank.
- Plus listings add custom questions for what matters in that home.
- Publishing locks the set so every applicant is judged on the same criteria.
Scoring
How compatibility scoring works
Scoring is based on the rules you configure for that specific listing.
1
You pick the questions applicants answer.
2
You set answer scores, importance, and any disqualifying answers.
3
Every application is scored against the same listing setup.
4
Top Picks surfaces the strongest candidates, with full answers still visible.
Fairness & control
You stay in control.
MyRoomMate structures the process and speeds up reading — but the questions, the scoring rules, and the final decision are always yours.
Your criteria, not black-box AI
Scores come from the answer values, weighting, and disqualifying rules you configure — not from AI.
AI summarizes, you decide
AI writes a short reading aid after submission. You review the original answers and make the final call.
Custom questions are moderated
Plus custom questions are screened for harmful or discriminatory content before they can be used.
Good screening questions focus on practical fit
- Move-in timing and availability
- Budget and payment expectations
- Cleaning routines and shared responsibilities
- Noise, guests, pets, and smoking rules
- Communication style and household expectations
Avoid sensitive or unrelated criteria
- Ethnicity, religion, health, disability, family status, or other protected characteristics
- Questions unrelated to the room, household, logistics, or compatibility
- Anything you would not be comfortable explaining to an applicant or regulator
Plus custom questions are reviewed before use, and listing owners remain responsible for following local housing and anti-discrimination laws.
