Updates from the Zi-Find team since 2024.
We've unlocked Finder Pro tier benefits including search boosts and a Verified Finder badge, launched an improved Partner Portal with auto-invoicing and student management, and fixed critical stability issues that were causing service interruptions.
Finder Pro now caps at 7 listings (down from 15), while Pro+ remains unlimited. Pro+ subscribers can now see how many times their listings have been viewed. We've also launched new amplification tools to help Finders reach more property owners and capture leads directly.
Three updates: Design Rooms — a free in-browser room-design tool; a 14-day free trial of Finder Pro with full access to submission bounties and buyer-demand leads; and photo uploads on finder listings from your phone or laptop.
The chat bubble in the app now gives real answers grounded in how Zi-Find actually works — and a one-tap path to a human teammate when you'd rather talk to a person.
The bottom nav on mobile is now a floating capsule with a glass-blur background. Every desktop sidebar item has a mobile destination — primary tabs in the pill, the rest one tap into a slide-up More sheet.
Right after Stripe checkout, operators land on a screen showing real DB-backed counts for their market — realtors active, owner-direct listings, total active listings, and the top realtors they can reach out to today.
Finders, realtors, and owners now get a personal referral code as soon as their first listing is approved. When someone signs up with it and lists their first property, the referrer earns free listing credits — usable on listings beyond the free tier.
A self-serve signup for licensed real estate agents and brokers — list sublease-approved properties that publish instantly, plus passwordless login.
Messaging was rebuilt into the new app, and you now get an email the moment someone messages you.
A dedicated For Finders page and a direct signup funnel — accounts are open now, no waitlist.
Zi-Find's two-sided, sublease-approved property marketplace is live — operators browse finder-sourced listings and lease transfers in one feed.
Navigation is now role-aware on mobile and sits flush against the iPhone home indicator and notch.
A rebuilt Market Insights section with rent-vs-Airbnb comparisons, comparable filters, saved markets, and alerts — now powered by AirROI.
A new pricing page, instant Stripe checkout at signup, and self-service plan and cancellation management.
Migrated to new infrastructure and removed a stalled data dependency that had been blocking property creation.
A completely rebuilt marketing site, repositioned around the sublease economy and the marketplace.
A premium redesign of the whole app, redesigned property pages, an interactive map, and a built-in deal calculator on every listing.
A support chat widget that answers questions from Zi-Find's knowledge base and escalates to a human when needed.
Submitted properties now flow through an automated pipeline and become live listings on approval — less manual work, faster turnaround.
Introduced an unlimited-submissions plan and a free trial so operators could try Zi-Find before committing.
Members could manage payment methods, change plans, and cancel on their own — with plans kept in sync with Stripe.
Operators and owners could message each other directly inside Zi-Find, plus an integrated support chat.
Property owners got their own role and dashboard to list properties and manage their presence on Zi-Find.
Live short-term rental market analytics and a Top Performing STR Markets view, so operators could find the most profitable areas.
Where it started — an early, internal sourcing tool for short-term rental operators: property search, market maps, and a deal dashboard.
