MetroResidences is a Singapore-founded proptech platform that curates furnished serviced apartments and monthly rentals for business travellers, expats and urban professionals across Asia Pacific. Launched in 2014 by James Chua and Lester Kang, it matches corporate tenants needing month-plus stays with quality apartments and layers on hotel-style services like housekeeping, maintenance and front-desk support. Backed by Rakuten Capital and 500 Durians, the company positions itself as a professionally managed alternative to both traditional serviced-residence operators and Airbnb-style listings.
Travelio is an Indonesian property-technology company that runs an online marketplace and end-to-end management platform for apartments, houses and villas. Founded in Jakarta in 2015, it lets landlords hand over units for professional management while giving tenants furnished, standardized homes they can book and pay for daily, monthly or annually - including a rare month-by-month payment option in a market that traditionally demands a full year up front. Often called 'Indonesia's Airbnb,' Travelio manages roughly 15,000 exclusive properties across a dozen cities and is expanding into rent-to-own housing.
