YouTubeOur Roots
Guided by the concept of a "hearth," AtHearth began as a small share house project in 2014, bringing warmth and connection to Tokyo.
This idea has since evolved into supporting expats in creating a home of their own in the city.
Our Investors
We've raised over ¥150M from top VCs and investors.
We're proud to be part of the Tokyo's leading tech-driven platform for expats.
