Ori is a real estate company using robotics to make apartments feel bigger and rent for less.

The technology behind Ori is magical but simple. A standard three-prong outlet, low-power motors, and a steel-framed counterweight system or guidance track are all it takes to create Expandable magic.

Ori systems can be controlled effortlessly via the Ori Square interface — no app or screen required. That said, there is also and app and voice control, so you can transform your space without lifting a finger.

Safety and user experience are at the core of everything we do at Ori. All Ori systems are UL962 approved and listed, which is the same standard used for all household furnishings, and the highest standard for consumer safety testing. Ori systems are also cycle-tested for a minimum of 15 years of use.
‍
While magical, the technology behind Ori is well-tested, leveraging simple but effective mechanics that have been around decades. Each system is equipped with safety-stop and anti-lift technology that ensure the system doesn’t move when it shouldn’t. Systems can also be locked using the Ori app, to prevent other unwanted movement.

If anything should go wrong, Ori’s US-based, internal support team can be reached anytime at service.oriliving.com.

Ori apartments are what we call "semi-furnished." They come equipped with large essentials, such as a couch, bed frame, and mattress, but they are not fully furnished or serviced apartments.

Because high-quality, essential pieces of furniture are integrated into Expandable Apartments, residents save money on furniture and avoid the hassle of moving heavy items, but can still decorate spaces with the personal touches and add the finishing pieces that matter most, turning an Ori Apartment into a home

No, Ori is not a modular housing manufacturer. Instead, Ori’s technology is designed to improve development yields regardless of construction methods. Ori systems are incorporated into building and unit design from the beginning, but installed directly on-site post COO. This flexibility means that Ori apartment designs can be customized to meet your construction and site-specific needs, ensuring a seamless fit with your development goals.

Unfortunately, not today. Ori is a real estate company that leverages robotic technology to improve and promote housing development. We are not a furniture manufacturer. Consumers looking to live in with Ori can choose from one of thousands of Expandable Apartments across the US and Canada, with more coming every month!

Ori derives its name from origami, the Japanese art of folding paper to create beautiful and remarkable objects that take many kinds of forms with elegance and beauty.
