The problem

NYC apartments don't wait for you.

The average Manhattan listing gets double-digit applications in its first hour. StreetEasy's native alerts are delayed by hours. By the time you see it, someone else already signed.

How Peregrine works

Three texts. One apartment.

01
Set your filters
Neighborhoods, budget, bedrooms, must-haves like laundry or doorman. Tell us what you want, once.
02
Get texted instantly
The second a matching listing appears on StreetEasy, RentHop, or Craigslist, you get an SMS. Not an email. Not a push notification. A text.
03
Reply APPLY
Your saved renter profile, employment info, and references are packaged into an application and sent to the listing agent. Done in seconds.

Why Peregrine

Speed alone isn't enough.

Every alert app tells you about a listing. None of them help you actually get it.

Speed
Seconds, not hours
StreetEasy's own notifications arrive hours late. Push notification apps are faster but still require you to open an app, find the listing, then start your application from scratch. Peregrine delivers via SMS and lets you apply in one reply.

The fastest bird in New York.

Peregrine falcons dive at 240 mph. Peregrine alerts hit your phone before the listing agent finishes their coffee. In a city where apartments vanish in hours, the first to apply wins.
