I built an app called InLoop for Indians in Australia. Housing, jobs, city communities, carpool, immigration updates. All in one place instead of spread across group chats and facebook groups where things get buried within an hour.

Its in closed testing there at the moment.

What im trying to work out is whether the same problem exists in the US or whether its already solved. From what I can tell from the outside, you have more established stuff and a much bigger community, so it might not be the same situation at all.

So genuinely asking. When you landed, how did you sort housing and roommates. Was it groups and word of mouth or is there somewhere everyone already uses. Screenshots below if you want to see what I mean.

Happy to hear its not needed. Thats useful too.

I built an app called InLoop. It's for Indians in Australia, whether you're already here or planning to come.

What it does. Housing listings you can filter by suburb, rent and move in date. Jobs posted by people here. Communities for each city.

Carpool board. Immigration section for visa stuff. Events. Marketplace.

The idea is everything is currently spread across group chats and facebook groups where its buried within an hour. This puts it in one place where you can actually search it.

Screenshots below so you can see what it looks like rather than take my word for it.

Its in closed testing on android at the moment. If anyone wants the links, say so and ill share them.

I've never written a line of code. I've still shipped an app for Australia's Indian & diaspora community — using AI tools to do it.

No dev background. No funding. No team.

Just a marketing guy who got tired of watching our community scattered across a dozen different WhatsApp and Facebook groups, and decided to fix it.

Meet InLoop: one place for housing, jobs, marketplace listings, and migration support — built specifically for Indians and other immigrants navigating life in Australia.

This is especially for students back in India planning to move to Australia for studies, healthcare courses, or work. Instead of guessing, you can actually hear from people already here — real feedback on finding a house, settling in, and what to expect before you land.

I'm doing everything myself right now: product, design, content, community outreach. Steep learning curve coming from an ad ops/marketing background, but the most useful thing I've built in years.

Still early days. If you're part of the Indian or immigrant community in Australia — or planning your move — I'd love for you to check it out. And if you're also building solo with AI tools, let's connect.

What's the biggest gap you've seen in immigrant community platforms? Tell me in the comments — I'm reading every one.
