For shared flats

The cleaning rota that rotates itself

No note on the fridge, no argument about who had it last week. collabDoo rotates bathroom, kitchen and hallway automatically, counts effort instead of numbers and shows everyone what to do this week.

Flat life

What matters in a shared flat

Rotation without a note

Bathroom week, kitchen week, hallway week rotate automatically through all residents. The history shows who had what when.

Effort instead of count

Cleaning the bathroom is effort 4, returning bottles is effort 1. Fair distribution counts what actually is work.

Photo as proof

“Kitchen deep clean” with required checklist and photo. No argument about “it was clean”.

Flat fund

“Pay into the fund” monthly, “count the fund” with a reading – the balance lands in the history.

Take over instead of skipping

Whoever is away marks themselves absent; the task goes up for grabs – with a bonus for volunteers.

Temporary flatmates

Sub-tenant until month end? A guest profile with an end date only gets the suitable tasks.

Shared goals

90% of the rota – and the fund pays for the flat dinner

Goals for the whole flat: “90% of the rota done” or “250 points this month”. Rewards that make sense in a shared flat: skip one cleaning week, flat dinner paid from the fund, first in the bathroom for a week.

  • Privileges as rewards: “skip one duty”
  • Weekly goals restart automatically
  • Team overview instead of a leaderboard

Knowledge

“How our cleaning rota works” – write it down once

New flatmates do not need everything explained: the knowledge entry describes what “kitchen deep clean” means, where cleaning supplies are and how the washing machine filter opens. Reachable right from the task.
