CLUSTER ACCOMMODATIONS-GUEST-HOUSING · 13 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-10-14
Student housing marketplaces
This cluster consists of web platforms for discovering and booking student housing, hostels, and paying-guest accommodations, often with verification and reviews, spanning India, France, and Nigeria. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from—only 4 entries predate the index start, so the cluster's growth pattern cannot be assessed. Among members with activity signals, Mess_Nest leads with 3 stars, while Rate-my-pg-2 and Shel have 0.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
