SCROLL INTO YOUR NEXT CHAPTER
Every home starts
with a little possibility.
The keys are yours.
Start with the things
that already feel like you.
Your favorite sofa isn't starting over. It's coming with you. Mark what you own, and make your plan around the pieces you want to keep.
A few right pieces.
A whole different feeling.
Build around your taste, not another endless search. A warm light, a softer rug, a little color. Nido helps you find what your room is missing.
Then comes the move.
Bring the calm with you.
The lamp, the books, the little things. Give them a box and a label, so you know where to find them at the other end.
And little by little,
it's your kind of home.
What you own. What you love. What comes next. All together in one place, with a little more room to enjoy the life you're building.

Good questions.
Clear answers.
A little clarity before your next chapter.
See all Nido featuresWhat is Nido?
Nido is a home setup and moving app. It brings a room-by-room furnishing checklist, AI product suggestions, a furnishing budget, and a searchable moving inventory into one place. Use it for a first apartment, a new house, or the home you're making your own.
Can I start using Nido for free?
Yes. Nido is free to start, and you don't need a credit card to create your account. Set up your home, choose your rooms, and build your plan. Furniture and other products are purchased separately from retailers.
What should I buy for my first apartment?
Start with the things you'll use on day one: a bed and bedding, towels, bathroom basics, cleaning supplies, and enough kitchenware to make a meal. Nido can add a starter checklist for your rooms, which you can edit around your budget and what you already own.
Can I add furniture I already own?
Absolutely. Mark existing pieces as owned on your checklist, add items manually, or photograph belongings for your moving inventory. Your plan can include both the things you're bringing and the things you still need to buy.
How does Nido help me find furniture?
Your style quiz and budget help inform AI Picks. You can also ask Nido for suggestions for a specific room, or paste a product link you've found yourself. Review the details with the retailer before buying; product prices and availability can change.
Can I share the plan with a partner or roommate?
Yes. Invite people to your home in Nido and choose their access level. You can coordinate the household's list, comment on items, and share your home through a link.
Does it work for packing and moving, too?
Yes. Nido's Move Tracker lets you photograph belongings, organize items into bins, create printable QR labels, and track packing and arrival progress. You can look up your inventory from your phone when you need to find something.
Is Nido a floor planner or a moving company?
Nido helps you plan purchases and organize your belongings. It doesn't produce measured floor plans, book movers, or handle deliveries. You stay in charge of your purchases and your move.
THE KEYS ARE JUST THE BEGINNING.
