THE COMPANY

Cobu is a fast growing proptech SaaS startup on a mission to empower everyone to feel like they belong where they live.

Over the past year, Cobu has expanded from a handful of apartments in Boston to over 77 cities, 33 states, and growing rapidly with leading residential property owners and managers across the US and Canada who share the same commitment to building stronger communities; and we help their business grow by helping them attract and retain happier residents.

We are a remote first culture and virtual team of high performing professionals with diverse backgrounds located across every time zone in the US and in Europe. We live Cobu’s values everyday by being community first, innovating, creating value, and sparking joy; and together, we are on a mission to change the world.

Cobu is an early stage proptech SaaS startup that has raised seed funding from multiple notable investors and has an arsenal of industry experts on our advisory board.
