About CloudSublet

We know the problem because we have lived it.

CloudSublet began with a simple observation: student subletting is a common need, but the information and trust around it are often fragmented.

Our story

From student experience to a student-first platform.

Across different university communities, we kept seeing the same pattern: housing information lives in scattered chats and posts, important details are easy to miss, and students often have too little context about the people and places involved.

CloudSublet is our attempt to bring those pieces together responsibly. We are starting with the student experience, building trust signals carefully, and staying honest about what technology can and cannot guarantee.

Founding team

Students building for students.

Our university backgrounds are context for the problem we understand—not a claim of university endorsement or partnership.
