Homeis

Homeis was a social networking platform for immigrant and foreign-born communities, founded in January 2017 by Ran Harnevo and Hanan Laschover with offices in New York City and Tel Aviv. The app matched users by country of origin and current city so newcomers could find their community for tips, jobs, dating, events, and local services, serving groups such as Israelis in the U.S., Latinos in Canada, French-speaking Africans in France, and South Asians in the Emirates. It reached more than one million users and raised roughly $16 million, including a $12 million Series A led by Canaan Partners and Spark Capital. The consumer app shut down in Summer 2021 and never reopened; homeis.com is now a parked domain listed for sale. Homeis published no public developer program, API, SDK, or documentation surface, so there are no API artifacts to enrich for this profile.

Homeis is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Social Network, Immigration, Community, and Mobile Application.
